As of last year, I posted a request to see if anyone needed my help because my team had not been the greatest, and I was amazed by how awesome the responses here were. I come again asking for something a little more. My school's only team has decided to ban me from joining this year because I'm "a useless sack of s**t." (I haven't been able to get any more specific than that, but I really want to think that it isn't true, especially considering I had to be physically barred from the shop last year because I was working and refused to leave). Point is, I'm going to be a senior next year, and I really, really, really want ONE enjoyable year out of FIRST, which has so far not happened. (I was thrown out of a moving subway, for starters). I therefore ask you to PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, see if there is any way I could actively help out your team programming-wise next year. It would mean the world to me. I'm familiar with LabView, Java, C++, Objective-C, Ruby, and Python, I can do basic electronics work, I've coded robot autopilots in C++ and Java since I was 8, and if there's a programming task I'm not suited for, I'll teach myself over the summer. I'll be happy to provide any and all necessary references.

Please. I'm counting on you guys for a halfway decent senior year with FIRST, and I figures bronies would be the nicest people to ask.
TL;DR Tossed off team, need a new team to work for, please help.

What good timing too!

Because of our (horrible) experiences with labview, we decided to move to Java next year (I voted for C++, but Java will be easier to learn for all the newbies.) The problem is, I only know C++ and Python. I don't know java really well. Or how to program the robot in it for that matter. On top of that, I'm going to be the lead programmer next year. Of course, if you could help, that would be really, REALLY, appreciated. And maybe we could even get you on our team somehow.

Not to mention the plot is going to be something out of a typical fanfic like this:

Spoiler for Prediction:
1. Twilight becomes human
2. Twilight meets human forms of her friends
3. Twilight finds out in order to get back home, she must get some artifact
4. Twilight falls in love
5. Twilight must choose between love and home
6. Some antagonist makes things more complicated
(PLOT TWIST: antagonist is also equestrian)
7. Twilight wins
8. Twilight revels her true form
9. Twilight goes home, probably with a "parting sorrow" scene w/ love
