The Definition of Last Minute

The folks handling the Hugos this year asked me to remind all y’all that you have until midnight Pacific time tonight to get in your Hugo nominations (that’ll be 4 am Eastern, because of the time switch), so if you haven’t done your Hugo nominating yet, jeez people, get to it already. I swear, this is the last time I’m telling you. This year.
will you post the nomines here ?
When the nominees are announced? Sure.
And when will that be?
Was that before or after the time change? ooops.
Nevermind – missed that bit – sleepy from the time change… sorry
The Ragi @3: Assuming they’re able to get everything counted and nominees contacted — they’re required to give nominees an opportunity to decline nomination — the plan is to announce the nominations at Eastercon, probably on April 4. If all goes well, we hope to have some sort of live announcement of results from the announcement ceremony at Eastercon. Watch http://www.TheHugoAwards.org/ and http://www.SFAwardsWatch.com/ for more details.
Of course, you’ll be telling all of us the same stuff this time next year.
I’ll be doing Reno next year, and it’ll be my first time doing Hugo nominations. I look forward to it.
