The Nuclear Option (My 2015 Hugo Vote)

I spent a lot of working on my list of nominations of works worthy of a Hugo Award that appeared in 2014. However, unless you've been sleeping under a rock, you'll know that most of what I nominated did not make it.

There has been a lot of talk about how to vote. Well, long story short: You (Puppies, Either Stripe) have your opinion and some of you (Puppies, mostly Rabid) have made your threats. You dug your grave. Go lie in it. I may have voted for some of your nominees in the various categories such as Best Professional Editor (Long Form) if you hadn't gone the route you went. I have nominated some of your names in the past; I did so again this year [specifically, again, Best Professional Editor (Long Form)].

But...you stand for something I do not. Those nominees who have not dropped from your slate have, in my opinion, embraced your philosophy. So, no vote, no matter how I may have felt previous to this.

Three-Body Problem (Cixin Liu, translated by Ken Liu, Tor Books)
