Got no support, no fal ai credits(if you are so hungry, you can give with fast expiry date) and for all these reasons DeadLine Need some extension....

I and i think many needs extension for deadline, atleast give 10$ credits or give openness to use other inference or clouds, this is great Hackathon and it should be given more time, give less credits or no credits but if you fal ai dont want to give credits they shouldn't announce to give, you landed fake hope, now alot of my friends needs time to ensure go for some another solutions or using there own cloud credits to show great projects.
I hope you can extend deadline atleast if not credits, this is most minimum expectation for now.

    Hey there,

    I'll reach out to FAL, but you are free to use other inference partners. For example Hugging Face was also giving some free GPUs for Kontext [dev]. You need to use FAL for the FAL track but you are not obligated to use them for everything.

    You can check the resources on how to train LoRA on Hugging Face https://bfl-kontext-dev.devpost.com/resources

    I just noticed the Hackathon today. Applied for the $60 credits on FAL, but I guess it won't be approved in time.
    Would love get a couple more days with this.

    @Stephen, Can't we select multiple track when submitting single project?

    @Avi it doesn't seem possible on the platform, as a solution I'd say apply to different tracks one by one, we will figure it out then :)

    can't you extend DEADLINE for this hackathon, i am using my own cloud credits atleast 80$, i was finetuning but it failed so no i need some time, i pivoted my whole plan, just need DEADLINE to be extended, my immediate need is some days extensions, i hope this is most possible thing if not any other support.

    @Stephen, I wanted to submit project one by one but rules says: "An Entrant may submit more than one Submission, however, each Submission must be unique and substantially different from each of the Entrant’s other Submissions, as determined by the Sponsor and Devpost in their sole discretion."

    Though in rules, it supports to select multiple track for single project, but in system it doesn't. "Choose the category or categories that best aligns with their project and provide a brief explanation for their choice."

    Won't it violates rules? Please give a solution.
