On the one hand, I really think that letting players have any real idea what the next round type will be kind of fucks with one of the fundamental conceits of how/why this game is what it is. Part of the charm and fun comes from the mystery and paranoia that comes from never being quite sure what's around the corner, literally and metaphorically.
That said, I also do think it might be fun to vote for rounds, especially since some round-types are woefully infrequent.
I think the best option might be simply to tweak the round type frequencies. That said, though, I think allowing round type votes but making them cost spacebux might be a good middle ground. Maybe also make it that you don't get any spacebux from the round that ensues, that way you have another incentive - besides the spacebux themselves - not to vote for it and to keep it random.
