Good morning @takeshi sobue as your current level is “Newbie” you can only join “Newbie” drives. 

 

Fewbie, Fewbie Plus, and Intermediate drives are on a different level, so you cannot join these for the moment.

Hi @takeshi sobue

 

Please find the structure with all drive levels below:

You are now on Newbie Level for at least 5 drives. Once you have completed these 5 drives you can request your promotion to Fewbie Level. 

If you see a "All Level" or "Newbie" level drive, you are fine to sign up.

Dear @Marky B.. this is a Fewbie Plus drive and as you are still Fewbie I will have to remove you from this drive RSVP.
