hm, five entries might be a little bit to few to hold a real 
multi-category competition. that's why i'd rather propose "real" 
competition with winners and real prizes as a incentive for 
participation (i'm just a student, but might cough up some bucks to 
sponsor a pd-shirt or book or cd or something like that (+shipping) for 
the winner of one category).
the proposed pd competition should be less 'restrictive' than the pd 
trigger gang bang. (filesize, interactivity and external-use should be 
restricted only by the corresponding categories)
multiple categories will reduce the entries/category ratio, which brings 
us to the question which categories are actually meaningful (maybe: 
"will attract the most entries"?) and what would be the minimum amount 
of entries per category to actually hold a vote on.
