Quotas set restrictions on the individual levels that can sign up for a game. JMS uses this as a way to manage the parity balance within a game itself. Once a quota is reached, no signups of that particular level will be allowed for that game. You can see the status of each quota by looking on the right hand side of any game page. Your level may have quota spots still open even though the session is full--that's because the quota spots add up to more than the total number of skaters. We put this little "give" in the numbers so we aren't waiting for any one level to fill up the game.
