Hi,
I haven't participated before in IC, and im just curious if it's possible to get to the finals in more than one category.
As far as I know, each final round will stay for 24h and probably no one can do simultaneously more than one thing.
So how it is?

It's possible. Andre Furtado from Brazil did it in this year's finals. He is in the software design invitational and Office Dsign category. I'm not sure how did that work out though, because I'm don't know the competition schedule of the Office Design category.

Hey LJ, thanks for remembering me! :)

Well, since Office Designer and Software Design were NOT 24h invitationals, it was only necessary to adjust my presentation schedule for both of them (they collided two times indeed, but nothing that could not be changed by speaking to the organizers).

But I do believe that things would be complicated if someone is in the finals of more than one invitational and one of them is a 24h invitational. But I also don't think it is fair to avoid someone from competing in more than one invitational... so I think that what we have here is a bug in the Matrix! Seriously speaking, I think that the "chosen one" will need to split his/her time between all of his/her invitational finals.

It doesn't sound too optimistic:|

I've send yesterday a mail to imagine@microsoft.com regarding this issue, but what I received was a daemon reply that my mail was undelivered:|

Anyway I'll try do it (so my chances to get to the finals will grow:)), but I think that it'll will be a little hard to do simultaneously Short Film, Algorithms and Project Hoshimi.:).

Oh, and thx for the reply.
