I'm flabbergasted to see so many people here decrying the "No Award" votes. It was the only option left to have any meaningful awards given. Even still, the only reason deserving candidates made it on the ballot in a couple categories is because the Puppies' nominees withdrew their works out of conscience.
Yes, they absolutely trolled the nominations, by rallying uninformed people from outside the fandom to invade the nomination process in support of the "culture war." Oh so coincidentally, many of the works nominated were authored by the organizer of this campaign. It was a publicity stunt propped up on delusions of some PC (Paranoid Canard) cabal, which got all the AHWs (Antisocial Hegemony Warriors) a-frothing, regardless of whether they'd ever heard of a Hugo award previously.
