Dunder Mifflin Infinity (DMI) is a game in which players become employees of a particular branch. Branches then compete against each other online for Schrute Bucks and prizes throughout the season.
I was lucky enough to get a personalized tour of the site, and I can tell you an incredible amount of work, not to mention attention to detail, went into the creation of DMI.
Let the games begin!
Hey, Everyone!
Sometime today Dunder Mifflin Infinity 2.0 is supposed to begin. I can get onto the website again! Hopefully it works this season…
517 | AngelOffice Thu. Sep. 4, 2008 at 9:21amhi, andar here, i just read your post. i like very much. agree to you, sir.
516 | andar909 Sun. Aug. 10, 2008 at 9:05pmEverytime I try to go to DMI I get an “internet explorer cannot find the page” message. It seems others have this problem too? Can someone enlighten us? I need something to do while i’m bored at work.
515 | MrsSchrute Tue. Dec. 11, 2007 at 7:35amI am relieved to see I am not alone in unsuccessfully trying to log on to DMI! I haven’t been able to even FIND the site (Server Not Found message) since the week of the Schrute Farms contest. Before that, it worked great, and I thought it was a blast, so it’s really disapointing! I have e-mailed NBC twice, asking what’s up, but they will not reply.
514 | AngelOffice Fri. Nov. 23, 2007 at 12:44pmI have not been able to post a reply in my Schaumburg forum since Friday, Oct. 26th. I keep getting Internal Error message.
I cannot find any directions anywhere on how to vote for the Schrute Farms reviews. They must be somewhere because I see the votes going up, but how to vote? Who knows? And I can’t ask because I can’t post anything. Very frustrating…..
513 | boots586 Wed. Oct. 31, 2007 at 12:08pmDoes anyone know if the site is up yet? I still can’t view it…
512 | satine Mon. Oct. 29, 2007 at 12:25pmI think the site is working, but some branches aren’t hiring people as fast as others… I was able to apply and get hired quickly in Pompano Beach
511 | Greenjello Mon. Oct. 22, 2007 at 9:33amI’m just hoping I’m not getting left out if other people can get on and access the site.
510 | Resonant Fri. Oct. 19, 2007 at 7:13amI’m getting so fed up with things not working right now.
509 | Greg Thu. Oct. 18, 2007 at 10:16pmI’ve been trying since Tuesday and I can’t get in either :-(
508 | danaspam Thu. Oct. 18, 2007 at 8:36amHmm…does anyone know how to tell if your design for Creed was in the top 5? My SchruteBucks went up randomly and I’m trying to figure out what I did — that’s the only thing I can think of but I can’t find confirmation.
507 | Kevin Wed. Oct. 17, 2007 at 11:30amHas anyone been able to log in? I’ve been trying for two days!
506 | abnabber Tue. Oct. 16, 2007 at 11:26amYeah really.
Sucks.
They need to figure this out.
505 | Resonant Mon. Oct. 15, 2007 at 5:50pmI’ve had the server not found message too, but more often I get part of the home page and a message that says, “Done, but with errors.” I can’t log in.
504 | JulieAnnaT. Mon. Oct. 15, 2007 at 5:47pmI have been getting the “server not found” message too. So much for submitting a video…
503 | noizyfish Mon. Oct. 15, 2007 at 1:43pmHas the site been down this weekend or is it just me? I can’t get in at all. It just says “Server not Found”.
502 | Resonant Mon. Oct. 15, 2007 at 8:02amI Love this game!!!
501 | GrinGrinSigh Sun. Oct. 14, 2007 at 10:17pmAny other RM’s not showing RM next to title on their page. It still says I’m RM in other places, and I can do all the RM things. Also my desk is a temp desk when I click on it, but the RM desk when in the preview view.
Guess all the bugs aren’t worked out yet

Frenchy - I have 1400 SB. I had the DVD code and participated in all the tasks. Also, I frequently update my profile to get the extra 100SB every week. The homepage actually has me listed in the top ten SB leaders this week! How dorky am I to be super happy over that?
499 | SillyRnti Sat. Oct. 13, 2007 at 10:58pmFrenchy- ooh, you’re totally in my branch. Yeah, I must say, I’m not too disappointed about our RM being gone. I found it amusing that she even tried to deny that all 15 accounts were hers.. anyway, yeah, your logo rocks and I totally hope you win for us! I’m telling everyone who’ll listen to vote for you!
