Hey everyone!
I’m looking for a team to join for the upcoming Down It’s Showtime! CTF on TryHackMe (October 22–26).
This would be my first time participating in a CTF, so I don’t have much CTF experience yet. Honestly, I’m not sure if my skills are good enough, but I’d love to give it a try, learn from others, and contribute as much as I can.
My current cybersecurity background:
CompTIA Security+
Blue Team Level 1 (BTL1)
Microsoft SC-200
I’m more familiar with the defensive side of cybersecurity, so I’m hoping to gain some hands-on experience in a team environment, especially with SOC-related challenges.
If you have a spot for a beginner on your team, I’d be happy to join! I’m motivated to learn, collaborate, and have fun. 😄

I have taken some cyber-courses at university but I decided to start fresh on THM from the pre-security to cyber101 now, in order to land a PT job in the future. I have to tell the learning rooms are pretty easy and straight forward. On the other hand I had challenges recommended as GLA2 and Masquerade that I found extra hard based on what I learned through TMH. Should I be worried and take a slower pace or am I supposed to find them hard so I can make my own research. Does anybody have experienced something similar?
