This is where you go and get more coffee.
Advice to workshop students: Don’t panic.
Well half past seven in the evening is not the time for coffee, btw what has happened in the youtubechat? Anyone following?
Presenters from several different countries. Now singing in polish.
Now talk about the fan auction.
Now to remember the friends we have lost. Vincent Docherty will help us celebrate and remember.
@StefanB
JDA was being a dick.
Meredith: So nothing new.
Remembering the lost is always hart.
Tea And Jeopardy did a live show at Octocon last year. Great fun. Well done them.
Thanks for doing this, Hampus – but how did you know I ‘d just gone to make coffee?
Oh, had missed that Börje Crona had passed away. 🙁
No captions for the in-memoriam.
Would be to much work I think.
Very emotional, huge cheering. Now individual presentations of fans passed away.
Sorry, no. Is Big Heart Award!
Big Heart Award is to a fan in europe.
Carolina Gomez
Carolina Gomez Lagerlöf from Sweden!
HURRAY!!!!
Haha, she had no idea. Was only told she wouldb’t want to miss this! 😀
Okay the captions leave the Lagerlöf off, let’s trust Hampus on the name, congrats.

I really like these fan awards.
Hoa, long name award that I missed.

Trying to find somewhere to follow the Hugos that hasn’t been compromised by a certain Scrappy’s bizarre attempts at self-promotion. Is this it?
Meredith: JDA was being a dick.
Yeah, now he’s being a dick over on the CART livefeed chat. 🙄
Best professional artist: Julie Dillon
We are currently Puppy free and Hampus is doing a great job.
At the moment no selfpromotion here.
Julie Dillon won pro artist.
Pretty sure that should be Jon D. Swartz.
Woop! Gratz Julie Dillon!

@JJ
Sigh.

Very happy to hear Les and Es Cole received First Fandom Hall of Fame Award. Les was Chair of1954 Worldcon and very active in the Little Mens’ Club in San Francisco. He wrote several articles for Mimosa including a recounting of how the Little Men claimed part of the Moon.
<refresh-refresh-refresh> Thank you, Hampus!
Nice speech.

Gratz to Ellen Datlow
Hampus, MVP! And what a set of wins so far.
No applauds for Beale. Some laughter though.
Winner; Liz Gorinsky
Liz Gorinsky best editor long
I’m surprised they didn’t do the usual request to “save your applause until all finalists have been read” thing this year.
Gratz to Liz Gorinsky!
