KHFA survey

[sincere]

Everyone on my flist who cares about Kingdom Hearts has already seen this because I spammed it on like five communities, but in case you haven't seen it.


libekory and I are setting up a fanfic archive for Kingdom Hearts -- it will be pretty cool. Categories, character selection that doesn't suck, a review system, an alert system, a rating system, even the ability to hold challenges and select "editor's picks" (so you know which fics shine among the masses).

But what kind of a category system do we want? (ladycrysiana - you're a better librarian than me, help!)

We have two major options: sorting by timeline or sorting by pairing.

In the event of a pairing system, the top level of categories might read--
General Fiction
Het Pairings
Slash Pairings
Femslash Pairings
Mixed Pairings

In the event of a timeline system, the top level of categories might read--
Before Kingdom Hearts
Kingdom Hearts
Before KH: Chain of Memories
KH: Chain of Memories
Before: Kingdom Hearts II
Kingdom Hearts II
After Kingdom Hearts II
Alternate Timeline

(We can also offer categories within categories -- if we do a timeline system, you can still say that you want pairings underneath that, as in, you can click on "Post-Kingdom Hearts II" fanfics and still enter the "General" category from there, or however you like it. We know a lot of people get fussy to find slash in their het, or prefer genfic, etc, and want to avoid that.)

Preferences? Suggestions?
Let me know!

I prefer the timeline sorting, but that might just be because I've not finished CoM or acquired KH2. But then, I'm also the type of reader who'd rather get into a fic about my favorites. So... there's also that. */unhelpful*

Maleficent made me squeal like a little girl with a crush in KH2. You'll love it when you have a chance to get it. ♥

I think what we might do is arrange a new category so you can search for fics that have spoilers only for KH, which will weed out fics that have spoilers for KH2 or CoM.

Thanks anyway for commenting. ^_~
