/gamergatehq/ - HULKAMANIA is running WILD!

No thanks. A lot of guys I knew who liked GG dropped out because of the puppies stuff.

I think best professional artist should be flooded with Nipponese artists. Put them between a rock and a hard place: Vote against "people of color" in favor white artist or no-award, or take the award from their friends and give it to a (deserving) Nipponese artist.

It's a win for us and a loss for them either way.

The PRfag cucks maybe.

The majority of people who usually voted on Hugo Awards (writers, editors, big fans etc) are more of the SJW/liberal side. Angry cunts were very pissed off about this and recruited random people to nominate their own works in the Hugos.

Basically people harvesting the hate against SJWs and multiculturalism for their own popularity.

>>314404

>Can anyone give me a quick description of what Sad puppies is all about?

The normal comic book awards got taken over by SJWs who were banning books that triggered their fragile feelings.

So people made an alternative award which is becoming more popular than the old one.

>>314413

The guy who organized it all actually refused nominations for himself. It was less about winning and more about proving that SJWs had rigged the game and would go to any length to keep anyone outside their clique from winning.

Which they accomplished successfully last year when the Hugo voters handed out more "No Award" categories in one night than the rest of the award's history put together rather than see any Puppy nominees win something.

Ok so sad puppies is voting bloc to influence the winners of the Hugo award which seems to be a big thing in the science fiction/fantasy crowd they want to nominate their own candidates to win because they believe it is rigged to the sjw leanings.

ok i got it.

This puppies shit is so cringeworthy. Just SF e-celebs trying to feel important.

Reminder, this is a Hugo Award Winning Author.

It's "GOOD" sci-fi. Like, objectively good. I mean, you may read it and cringe because it's on par with, say, MY IMMORTAL, but that's just your internalized misogyny, you fucking shitlord.

I forget how the voting breaks down, it was explained on some HoneyBadger live stream or other, but I believe the Hugos require a buy-in for every vote; so buying a bunch of votes and consolidating them based on community polls is essentially just further rigging an already-rigged system, and in the direction of putting more power in the hands of actual consumers than it otherwise allowed.

>>314368

Actually, what does a work have to do to qualify? We could spam manga!

But CIS white men are a mnino>>314494

>Sci-fi and fantasy literature is just a boys club full of cis white men (like gaming is) and they don't want women and minorities taking part (like gamers don't).

That is a paradoxical statement because CIS white men ARE a minority (less than 12% of the people on earth are CIS white males).

>>314420

Sad Puppies didn't advocate bloc voting -they basically said to their support 'vote for what you like'.

All I really remember about sad puppies was a bunch of cucks and landwhales throwing tantrums about it. Which is more then enough for me to want whatever they did to happen again.

I've heard conflicting stuff about sad puppies.

They sounded reasonable on the honey badgers, but I've also heard some pretty bad rhetoric coming from their leaders, and it comes off as personal army syndrome.

What I haven't seen is any credible third party information that I can put trust in. So if anyone can show me what you got that'd be cool

>inb4 telling me to Google it all my results are from NPR, and places that make NPR look like George Bush.Breitbart is nice, but hardly without an agenda

>>314912

>I've also heard some pretty bad rhetoric coming from their leaders

They're all cool dudes and chicks except for that faggot Vox Day. Whom I only tolerate because he fights against the SJW cancer.

>>314912

>>314934

Bear in mind that there are two Puppies movements in the Hugos, "Sad Puppies" started by Correia and the splinter "Rabid Puppies" led by Vox Day. I suspect, though without knowing what you're referring to specifically, that most of the bad rhetoric you've seen were Rabid Puppies.

>>314945

>>314934

Yeah, I know of rabid puppies, and the story from the conversation I had was that sad pups had the same rhetoric on their site as rabids did, that being "women and minorities don't belong here"

obviously this being months into gg at the time my red flags went up, I have definitely heard that shit before.

Hell when I pointed out the fact that women were in SP I got the stock internal soggy knees response.

>>314366

HAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

Nice try, Scalzi

>>314948

And this year the leaders/organizers of Sad Puppies are all women.

This is going to be an important point that SJWs are going to try and sweep under the carpet

>>314366

LOL what?

Thats like those feminazis who claim that women are dropping out of science because some scientists made a sexist joke.

Clearly you arent really committed in the first place if you drop out based on something so insignificant.
