to assign to multiple partitions manually (specifying start offsets): https://github.com/confluentinc/confluent-kafka-dotnet/blob/master/src/Confluent.Kafka/IConsumer.cs#L225

if you're using consumer groups, you can specify specific start offsets explicitly by returning a collection from the partitions assigned handler: https://github.com/confluentinc/confluent-kafka-dotnet/blob/master/src/Confluent.Kafka/ConsumerBuilder.cs#L236

you can commit offsets for multiple topics simultaneously using:
