Looking at the voting statistics, linked from the Loncon 3 main web page, I see that Larry Correia’s novel, which he encouraged his fans to nominate, got 5th place out of 5. Vox Day’s shorter piece came in 6th in its category, behind No Award.
*Everything* on the “sad puppy” slate finished after all the other finalists in its category (with the exception of Weisskopf, who finished fourth).
Now that Kameron Hurley is the “best fan writer,” will she publicly renounce any payments she gets from LOCUS for her column?
There has not been an amateurism requirement on Hugo-eligible fan writing for decades.
Regarding the a Pro winning a Fan Hugo, those pesky Hugo voters for the 1967 Award gave the Fan and Pro artist award to Jack Gaughan. I seem to recall much “Something Must Be Done.”
Evelyn: until and unless the amendment gets ratified next year, they were all “nominees”, not “finalists”.
Sorry, Morris, I’m using the terms as they are used in the English language, not the technical WSFS jargon. 🙂
I have heard of the film GRAVITY, but have not seen it. I saw a couple of epiosodes of GAME OF THRONES, from the first season. Everything else is a blank.
Well, I didn’t vote, either.
