Electron here. I'm a administrator of Route 50, which means I aptly administrate! I'm a coder helping Kat and Navarr with the site. Due to my busy schedule, I can't always help, so it may be better to direct any bug reports or questions towards the other two, though I'll help you if I can whenever I am able.

Apart from coding, I also like music, and have composed a number of tunes for Route 50's upcoming RPG. You may hear some of them in the future!

Pokémon? Pokémon is important to me. My favourite game is Crystal, and I see no reason for that to change at present. It's my favourite because of Johto. Ah... Johto... Flaaffy and Krabby and Sunflora and Ilex Forest... you either "get" Johto or you don't. Kat gets it, and that's one of the reasons why I love working here so much. We shall make the RPG amazingly Johto-like.

Other things I like include tea, animals, cricket, anime, art and vast sunny meadows :D

Is it safe to dance?

We can dance if we want to
We can leave your friends behind
'Cause your friends don't dance and if they don't dance
Well they're no friends of mine!

Anyway, "Hello, Route 50!" has been met with very positive comments from the community, so I declare myself to have been successful in its making :3

The actual composing process took me a few hours because I had a vague idea in my head, unlike the occasions when I have a piece almost completely formed before sitting down at my piano (as was the case with "Sunlit Walk"). However, there were rough transitions (between the "body" parts of the song and the choruses -- the parts that are faster and repeat) and especially between the last chorus and the ending. It took me quite a long while to come up with some solution.

Some parts of the chorus have also been altered (the most obvious change is the main chorus line being played slower and an octave deeper the second time it's repeated along with a speeding-up repeat with the left hand playing semiquavers in an arpeggio fashion). The little "plink" sounds you can hear throughout is my piano's vibraphone sound setting (it's an electric piano). The happy/sad melody they play in the ending of the piece was something I also spent a lot of time on.

The next piece of music I'm working on is a composition called "The Walk Back", which I intend to make an awesome happy piano piece just as good as Hello, Rt50!
