Hugo Voting Glitch
CoNZealand has reported a bug in the Hugo Award-voting interface that may lead to some votes not being recorded:
This mostly seems to happen when using the Safari browser on a Mac, but we have a couple of reports from other browser/device combinations.
- If you received an email confirmation after voting, your votes have been entered into the system and you should not be concerned.
- If you did NOT receive the email confirmation, please log back into the system and confirm that your votes have been recorded. If they have not, please try again using a different browser/device combination, preferably Chrome, as we have not had any reported problems from Chrome users. If you continue to have problems or need further assistance, please contact hugohelp@conzealand.nz
You may also vote by downloading the fillable PDF ballot, filling it in, and emailing it to hugo-ballot@conzealand.nz. Please note that a typed name is acceptable for the signature line – you do NOT need to print, sign and scan your ballot.
While you are here, please take a moment to support Locus with a one-time or recurring donation. We rely on reader donations to keep the magazine and site going, and would like to keep the site paywall free, but WE NEED YOUR FINANCIAL SUPPORT to continue quality coverage of the science fiction and fantasy field.
