Community questions:
So, who are you?: Hey, I'm Marcello and I am currently 2 years into a 4 years Mathematics degree at university! Maths has always been something I've loved so maybe when I'm done I'll do a phd, time will tell. I've lived in London my whole life, pretty standard stuff. As of just under 2 years ago I've been a member of the Development team for pokemon reborn, and as of just under 1 year ago I've been the only scripter on the team, and head of the development team as a whole (even if that is just in name only, really). I really enjoy working on the game, and it's always fun to see people enjoying it. I joined Reborn around 3 years ago and sometimes I still find it hard to believe that I have gone from some rando to being the only scripter on the dev team for the game.
Anything you're responsible for? As I've said before, I'm the scripter for pokemon Reborn. I joined a bit through the development of E16 so while nothing prior to that was me, a lot of the fun cool stuff that came with the latest release I'm at least partly responsible for, including a large number of bugfixes, online functionality (particularly Wonder Trade which I programmed from scratch and am still super proud of because that is my baby tbh) the mechanics behind a certain conveyor puzzle, and some other things, and one of the big things I'm working on for the next release is improved AI! I'm also the one that ruined the money curve as of E16 so the reason y'all are so rich ingame is because I messed up oops
If you had to choose one of your posts as your way to introduce yourself, which would it be? Did I mention that I like Alolan Exeggutor a lot??
What can I talk to you about? Just about anything you'd like, I like to think I'm pretty approachable and enjoy talking about things with people. Although in particular if you wanna talk about maths or something similar I could go on for hours so please talk to me about maths please I love it. Still, I'm open to chat about anything, I'll take any excuse to procrastinate from working on reborn
Closing statements? Nothing much else to say beyond this topic is a great idea, hopefully it helps newer additions to this community more open to interacting with those of us that have been around longer.
