And you may think, "But isn't this like AO3 winning for Best Related Work?" No, it is not. The website, not its contents, as the work in that case. In the case of a series, the authors of the series are necessarily the winners. SO WE'RE ALL HUGO WINNERS

Also, now that the Cthulhu Mythos was won a Retro Hugo for Best Series, we can all get memberships and make sure it wins the Best Series of the contemporary Hugos next year.

And clearly it's not just Series of that year, as Series winners in the 2010s include books from the 1980s, and clearly it's not Series UNTIL that year because once a series win it is no longer eligible to win again. Best Series necessarily means the complete series.

AND if you have a textual complaint about the hundreds and hundreds of Cthulhu Mythos stories published since 1945 being somehow non-series because they change or undermine the originals, just admit you never read the work of named winner August Derleth and hand me a rocket.

The what? Is this like a lifetime achiever award or a "you need vee got an award but we still like you" award? Weird.

It's putatively giving out Hugo Awards for years where no Hugos were awarded, but in practice it is "Give an award to the one story still sometimes reprinted or one author that still has a bit of name recognition." Adding the Best Series misfire to the RHs is a new mistake.

If I have something in progress that I end up selling, can I claim it *cough* retroactively?

Absolutely—it's part of the series! You're an "other."

I wrote a Dreamlands story that was published.... does that count? Or a too close, no cigar, and I gotta wait for the Dreamlands Cycle by Lovecraft and others to win :D
