Mod post: 2019 bingo game - Round 1 voting now open. NOW CLOSED AS OF 11/26/18  
Under the cut is a list of 45 out of 67 categories we've had suggested. (Please see this post for more information.) What we'd like you (and keli and I, too) to do is to vote for 10 of them you'd like to see on the final card. After a week or so, I'll tally the votes and the 6 categories that have the most votes will make it onto the card, the others will be placed back in the list for the next round of voting. I'd like for us to choose six categories per week for the next four weeks.

Comments will be screened until time to tally the votes. At least they're supposed to be screened. I set the entry to screen comments, but I'm having to go back and manually screen them for some reason.

Categories were chosen using random.org. Here's a link to a crappy graphic I made showing the results in case anyone would like to double check my work vs. the original list linked above.

(Just a personnal comment : Book part of a trilogy and book part of a series really feels similar to me... Wouldn't it be easier to fuse these two categories?)

They were left separate because with a trilogy there's definite end and series can go on ages and ages.
