The 2014 Hugo Award winners were announced on Sunday evening, August 17, at the ExCel Converntion Centre in London, England. The ceremony was hosted by Justina Robson, Geoff Ryman. Text-based CoverItLive coverage of the ceremony was provided through the Hugo Awards web site. Video streaming coverage was provided by Ustream.
The 2014 Hugo trophy base was designed by Joy Alyssa Day
The full order of finish in each category and links to the nomination and voting details are available on the 2014 Hugo Awards page.
The ‘Final Ballot Details’ link doesn’t work.
It does now, and did a few minutes after you posted. We decided it would be better to have the results up sooner along with the link to the details rather than hold off publishing anything until later and have people complain that we were holding out on them.
The link to the ballot details is 404ing.
(Feel free to delete this when fixed.)
The reason the link did not work when you tried it is because Loncon 3 had not quite yet posted the detailed results. The link is correct and began working about fifteen minutes after the ceremony. We elected to go ahead and publish the announcement and the link so they would be out there as soon as possible even though the link to the details took a few more minutes to actually resolve.
Looking over the vote breakdowns & the nominations, it’s gratifying that in the vast majority of categories the nominee receiving the most first place votes ended up winning the Hugo. No complaints about the Aussie ballot this time. Alas for our dear pal Toni Weisskopf, though, She’s an exception.
Did you used to write letters to DC comics? The name rings a bell.
This is the official listing.
Could you spice up the listing with a link where we can buy or read the winning item?
Well, this was largely disappointing results. I thought the voters would come to their senses and declare “Frozen” a definitive winner of the “Best Dramatic Presentation (Long Form)” award, but instead, “Gravity” (which I obviously would not have placed my vote on; I actually thought “Catching Fire” would be a more fitting contender) somehow stole the award. The one time I actually care about this type of award and you mess it up like this. That’s it, the Hugo Awards are dead to me. Really disappointed…
