Which is why, I believe, what happened with GRRM and the 2020 Hugos livestream happened the way it did. GRRM is *used* to feeling entitled to the stage at the Hugos. There was no losers party, so he used the awards ceremony to tell the stories he usually tells at his own event -

Thanks for this. A really interesting, insightful and scrupulously fair assessment of the issue, I’d say.

Foz, thanks for the thoughtful analysis. I think 1 and 3 aren't mutually exclusive depending on the size of GRRM's ego...continuing to host "his party" as long as he's able to and then dumping some cash from his estate into a fund to pay for the party thereafter seems viable.
