As with the first round, please vote for 10 of the remaining categories. 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 through the month of December.

First round results:

(Please see this post for more info on vote totals and other info.)

Published the year you were born

One Word Title
