I'm sure you did not hear about the boycott of voting for Rowling based upon her failure to show up to the Hugo Awards.
That's rich. If we had a sustained boycott of every author who didn't show up for the Hugo Awards ceremony to accept his/her trophy, pretty soon there wouldn't be any Awards because there would be no ballots cast.
I'm so sorry that the Hugo Awards aren't what you want, which apparently is the "Give Awards To Things I Like Because Everyone Who Likes Anything Else Is Stupid And Conspiring Against Me."
By the way, there are only a handful of Hugo Award nominations this year that I am personally delighted about, such as (but not limited to) that for Girl Genius in Best Graphic Story. But I don't think that just because the Hugo Awards are not a perfect reflection of my own taste that there is some Grand Conspiracy trying to exclude works I like. It means my tastes are not perfectly congruent with the voters, that's all. And unlike you, I don't think that's a bad thing.
