Categorization of Stories

Important announcement for new authors and a reminder for writers who have been posting here for a while about story categorization. I have noticed that not all stories are tagged properly, and in the spirit of making sure readers can easily find stories, I would just ask you please to verify that your stories have both a main category, and a subcategory.

Stories should be labelled in one of two main categories: Jim/Pam or Other. Stories should then be tagged as belonging to one or more of the following 6 subcategories (THIS APPLIES TO BOTH JIM/PAM STORIES AS WELL AS OTHER STORIES):

  • Past: Story takes place before the show
  • Present: Takes place at the same time as the documentary but not what we have seen in episodes
  • Future: Takes place a long time somewhere down the road.
  • Episode-related: The story shows us missing scenes of an episode or deals with the internal monologues some characters may have had during certain scenes.
  • Crossover: Characters from another TV show/movie/book interact with the Dunder-Mifflinites.
  • Alternate Universe : The story takes place in another time and/or setting. "Hope" by Nomadshan is the perfect example.

The subcategories are little bit hidden when authors post stories, which is why they are easy to miss.

1) After you used the scrolldown menu to select either Jim/Pam or Other, hit select.

2) Return to the same menu, and you will now see the subcategories have appeared.

3) Select as many subcategories as needed for your story. Hit select.

4) Your story is now both tagged for a main category and subcategories!

If you have any questions or concerns about categorization, please email us at morethanthat1@gmail.com. Thank you so much for your help. I truly appreciate this community because you have made archiving a pleasure. :)
