gbm: Voting No Award in every category where all nominees were selected by slate votes as a protest against slate voting is as legitimate a vote as nominating by slate. I was disappointed by the results in several categories because the categories clearly had nominees that could have been the nominees had there been no slate. I am quite concerned that Vox Day may keep his promise to nuke the 2016 Hugos by producing a slate that has no acceptable candidates in every category, and engaging his like-minded non-SF fan political base to stick it to the SJWs. |
This is "suppose" to be the award for the best in Science Fiction, not a political statement. If you do not like the what was nominated then do not vote for that category, do not vote "no award". Voting "no award" dishonors the memory every author who has won the award in the past.

From were I sit it looks like his point was proven very well.
I'm hoping that because "
The Three Body Problem" won best Novel that Mr Beale will hold off on "nuking the 2016 Hugo's", but that maybe
The Hugo's maybe on antibiotics but they are a long way from being seriously ill.
