Lets get the awards themselves out of the way first. As you've all heard by now, the Puppies were shut out. The community managed to successfully defend themselves at the first level. Congrats to all of us, I'm proud. :) I had thought it possible there would be some disruption of the awards. Not necessarily anything physical, but maybe booing or chanting or yelling, which would slow things, stop the proceedings, and need to be dealt with. Before I arrived in Spokane I had been half-expecting it. There was not a peep. If there were any puppy supporters in the audience they were well behaved. I will admit that I am partially impressed that they managed to keep their civility about them. The entire thing went off without a hitch.
