    I don't understand the No Award system. Does it mean that voters didn't like any of the nominees/finalists?

      My understanding is that voters have the option of voting for "None of the above," which means the "no one" option won over all the other candidates in Puppies-dominated categories.

      These were categories where all the nominees were Puppies. People preferred not awarding the award to anyone when it was the case.

        How sad. Why are there so many Puppies? Is the problem the jury's selection or are the voters too snobbish?

          I suppose you're asking why there are so many Puppies nominations... That happened because they gamed the selection process.

          Because absolutely anyone (even you and I) can nominate people as long we spend 40 bucks for a membership. The puppies did a massive recruitment drive.

      In short, yes.

    What I'm getting from this is that this Vox Day fellow is a ham and a half.

    If he's truly pulling as many strings in the Hugo awards as he claims, then the Hugo awards should lose all the prestige its ever had.
