-“'''Consecutively numbered money orders'''” refers to what was considered an attempt to game the [[1989 Hugos]], when a bloc of nominations of one candidate for the [[Best Novel Hugo]] were accompanied by new [[Worldcon]] [[membership]] applications with fees paid for that way. It isn’t known whether the people the memberships were for were real or not or who bought the money orders.

-After the news leaked, the [[novel]] in question was withdrawn, and [[Hugo nominations]] rules were subsequently changed so that in order to nominate, one must have joined [[WSFS]] before the nominations period opens. In 2021, the [[WSFS Business Meeting]] ratified a [[WSFS Constitution|constitutional]] change making the joining deadline January 31 of the awarding year.
