I don't get it why does it to be "fantasy" ? We voted before on Reality vs Fantasy, but no one said back then it will be fantasy like Dwarfes and Witches or Harry Potter. Even Sci-Fi is going to be mixed with fantasy?! In which of the upper categories get space ships, lasers and EMP bombs? If You're gonna mix that with fantasy, this thread is wrong from the start.

I disagree. Fantasy has many different categories to it. In the first poll, the question was reality versus fantasy. As fantasy won that poll, we now have to decide which style of fantasy should be used.
This part is just examples of what can be done. Not what will be done. You have miss read what Jane asked for. She wanted examples of literature so some of the players who may not be acquainted with fantasy would understand a lot easier what each one does.
Science fiction can come in to main parts, Star Wars is purely science fiction all the way, Star Trek has elements of science fact about it. But both are science fantasy.
Many of the books and stories listed will not sit into one category alone.

Unfortunately it is misleading. I notice the votes for High Fantasy have pulled ahead again since you inserted "Lord of the Lings", but we are obviously not going to be making an LOTR map.
The categories were clear enough as they were, they didn't need "examples" which just serve to prejudice the vote.

Hypospray - Injectors like this have been in use for many years.
Personal communicators - who does not have a mobile telephone today?
Phasers - wicked lasers spider 3 is the closest today
Universal Translator - these are now around. Iphone have it I think.
Medical tricorders - A competition was won by a couple of students to build one of these for real. It had to diagnose 10 different things.
