Hey there,
Since the last GDQ I thought I would give myself a kick up the backside and try and get into this sort of stuff.
A little about myself and an attempt to rationalize what I want to achieve:
I am Douglas, I'm in my late 20s. I work as a software engineer (5 years in total, 1.5 years at my current job at Amazon). I've been into games since as far back as I can remember, growing up playing Sonic 1, Starfox, Donkey Kong Country 2, LoZ Links Awakening, and Donkey Kong ('94); moving through games like Star Wars Shadows of the Empire, Deus Ex, Halo, Mass Effect, LA Noire and more.
As for what I want out of TAS stuff, I want to just be part of something. As I've mentioned above I am a professional software engineer. I know C, Java, some C++, some assembler, some python. I don't know Lua and C# but I could easily pick them up.
So yeah, hi.
