Now that the Hugo Award nominees have been announced, 17S needs a place to discuss them! (Since Brandon is a nominated author, I've placed this thread here. If it fits better in the non-Brandon section of the site, I invite the mods to move it there.) The link above is to the official nominee list, which I've copied below. I am personally unfamiliar with the majority of these works. In addition, this year's voting includes a retro-Hugo award series for 1939, also copied below. I'm about equally familiar with those works as I am with the current nominees. I suspect this thread will suffice for both discussions. 2014 Award Nominees: 1939 Award Nominees: I have participated in the Hugos once before, and enjoyed reading as many works as I could make it through before the voting deadline. I plan to do so again, and look forward to some of the best that SFF has to offer. I am interested in your impressions of the nominees (so far the only category for which I have developed a strong opinion is Best Graphic Story, where I think Munroe's "Time" definitely deserves the top slot.) I am also curious how you feel it is best to evaluate the non-text categories, such as Best Editor, Best Fan Artist, etc. As a reader, how do I 1) find out what a given person contributed to during the year, and 2) use my time well to survey and compare those contributions?

I'm lookin' at my user profile and I see a tab for awards, but it is empty! How can this be?! I'm participating, therefore I deserve one! Haha, no but really, are these a new feature coming soon? Any chance we could get a couple examples as a preview?
