Christopher Kovacs: At the very beginning I observed that the roundups with “puppy” titles had lots of readers and a similar post with a non-puppy title had fewer. I speculated that usage was a kind of branding and explained why people didn’t seem to find the other roundup as easily. So for awhile I usually followed the rule of including the word “puppy” in roundup titles.
Also, at the beginning the roundups depended on links from more widely-read blogs.
Once the roundups gained their own following I realized I had more freedom to vary the titles. They might encompass other dog references, or other themes within the Sad/Rabid discussion (one was inspired by all the references to Siamese cats happening in comments that day.). And that’s when people started to get really clever. Or slipped the leash, if you will…
How much is that Puppy in the Hugo?
The one with the Sad Rabid Fail…
robin: “Puppyshirts: A Hugo With Two Canines”
Ohhhhhhhhh, nice. I’m thinking maybe Furshirts (or Hairshirts?) could work as well, but nicely done on using the sub-title

But it is not this day! This day we vote!
Reverse the Pawlarity!
Have fun storming the Hugos!
Puppies Of Unusual Size? I don’t think they exist.
All those Hugos will be lost in time.. like tears in rain… Time to vote…

At the back door, without any fuss, the puppies were going out.
Canis Major and Canis Minor?
Stealing the Elf-King’s Puppies
Having read or skimmed the Hugo fiction nominations, I came to the conclusion that most of the nominations were for average stories that are not worthy of a Hugo. I like good, well-written stories be they from David Drake or Charles Stross. I don’t care about the writers’ politics, etc. And so I find that “Noah Award” will be a first place vote in several categories or a second place vote in others.
And it’s not just the Hugos. Major League Baseball, as of 6/19/15, has invalidated over 65 million votes for the All-Star game citing irregularities. That 8 Kansas City Royals lead the ballot in their position suggests that electronic voting needs to be rethought since it can be manipulated far easier than people had thought.

BEST COMMENT I’VE SEEN SO FAR REGARDING THE WHOLE HUGO/PUPPY SITUATION:
(a comment posted to the NPR.org Hugo/Puppy story)
[quote]
Universal fact of life? Stuff changes.
As you age, the stuff you really liked growing up? Goes away. Replaced by stuff people *younger* than you really like.
But here’s the thing: I really like typewriters. Typewriters have
gone away. But I don’t blame the disappearance of typewriters on a vast
politically correct conspiracy against typewriters and everything
typewriters stand for.
The Sad/Bad/Dangerous-To-Know Puppies just need to form a club among
themselves where they can play together with their “old traditional”
(manual?) sci-fi… and stop whining about it.
Thanks for your time.
I have to go to Staples now — they still have ribbons for my old Royal!
How cool is that?!?!

The Neffy Award (National Fantasy Fan Federation Speculative Fiction Award) was first given in 1949 to Ray Bradbury. Since then it has occasionally been given (including continuously since 2005) for outstanding contributions to the Science Fiction field.
The 2015 Neffy Award, a
Heroic Commendation,
Was Won by
All of Hugo Fandom
for reviving the most ancient and honorable of all fannish customs, the all-hobby fan feud.
The ballot resolution read: To all of Hugo Fandom, for they are all fen: A Heroic Commendation for reviving the most ancient and honorable of all fannish customs, the all-hobby fan feud.
The 2015 Neffy Award for
Best Editor
was won by
Toni Weisskopf, Baen Books.
The ballot resolution read: Mindful that editors are judged on their extended record, not a single work in a single year, and that other editors may in future years be honored for their work in the same time period, the nomination for 2015 for Best Editor is to Toni Weisskopf, Baen Books .

President, National Fantasy Fan Federation
Guess we’ll have to transfer the NFFF out of the “mostly harmless” category…
Hi Robin: fantastic to see another Robin!
Popping in to whish you all a Good Yule and Happy Holidays. Have been a bit overwhelmed lately with moving apartments which takes longer time than expected during a pandemic where you suddenly have to push dates forward because someone has got a mild cold.
Anyhow, hope to be more back in a few weeks.
