A book about death
A book set in Victorian England

(And may I suggest "or region if you are not from US" if that does not get voted off? Most countries are broken down into something like provinces or counties if not states).

I might be mistaken, but I don't think this round is about voting categories off from the list. It's a vote off, like a bake off. A vote contest. You should pick the four categories you want ON the list. Right?

I think you vote for your favourites. That's what I did anyway, but I'm not a native English speaker so maybe you shouldn't trust me on this..


message 44: by Martha (new)

Martha (marthag503) The directions say we're ready for a vote off, but then say to select your top four. I read the instructions as voting for your top four. The ones with the lowest votes will be voted off.

Oh dear - I definitely meant for everyone to vote for their favorites, and I'm sure everyone did that.

The voting is bringing some pretty clear winners for this round. I'm just about to tally up the most recent batch!
