Hello, I was wondering that if I were on a team for the game showcase and there was another team in the showcase as well that hasn't hit its limit, would it be possible to be part of that team as well? (as being no restrictions said in the rules)

@Kirukle:

There are no rules against being on multiple teams, in fact we've had a student on two teams who placed in both!

Having said that: Our RECOMMENDATION is to not do that unless there's extenuating circumstances - the student above was in a game art class in one period and a game programming another period, so entered once in each class. It'd be a violation of the spirit of the rule to have the same team enter the contest with two different rules (and I would hope that their advisor would say "we're not gonna do that here").

Ultimately it's up to the teams' advisor *BUT* our recommendation would be "no". An exception might be something like sound - there's not enough sound people in the class to put one on each team, but one sound person splits themself across a couple teams. IMHO in any other case the time would be better spent upgrading/polishing/etc the 'first' game rather than being part of two.
