For everything else, there's Master Card the Everything Else category.

Modern Adventure.

That too, but I always stereotype Modern Adventure as more of guns, explosions, and spec ops units. Not a bunch of middle-class people going about their drama-influenced lives.

You do know that dragons and krakens and gryphins roam the nether-regions of The Box, right? I'm not risking my neck for some "good idea". lol

modern adventure? I kinda agree with Anubis. It's not really a "The Wal-Mart Game"  I think it can go in Everything else

Unless this family reuining happens in the distant future or ancient past... it's modern adventure. . .

It doesn't HAVE to be Modern Adventure. And the fact that this family reunion could have happened in any time period means that it belongs in another category. What if that "strange plot twist" Jimi was talking about was when a dragon ate the grandmother? Or if aliens invaded Earth?
So Everything Else is the way to go.

Dragon, could go in everything else. Aliens, probably sci/fi.

With your logic ANYTHING could go in Everything Else.

Yeah, well we're both right. It's up to Jimi, and he say he wants to put it in EE, so you can look there.

Geez. So testy lately. lol :P

is it just me or is the modern adv. category too big?

Maybe split it up or something...maybe, cant think of two categories it'd split up into

Well, there really isn't a way to split it up. It's pretty straight-forward. I mean, the only two categories I can come up with is Page 1 and Page 2.

Wrong. So many ways.

Violent / Non violent

Recent Past / Absolute Modern

Drama
Action
Humor
Crime (Though you already have a Mystery category)

Is Edutainment more or less the Historical/Western category?
