My Hugo Voting

[brendanpodger]

This is a contentious year for the Hugo awards so all sorts of arm-chair statititions are wanting to see the votes for as many people as they can to plug into their Will-The-Puppies-Screw-Up-O-Metres. As of tomorrow I am going to be working 21 of the next 23 days so a in-depth review of the stories may be a while, so behind the cut are the bare numbers for those who want them.



In all but one two place if I voted for No Award, I chose not to number candidates further. Drek is drek and I am not really intrested in deciding how much worse one bad work is than another.
