The Ditmar Award was collected by [[Danny Heap]] and [[James Allen]], who had travelled by road across the Nullabor to attend that year's Natcon, [[Swancon 14]], in [[Perth]]. They explained that Jacob Blake had been involved in a bike crash and was unable to attend, but that they, along with [[Phil Wlodarczyk]], had a proprietary interest in the magazine due to having assisted it financially.

It seems that Danny had promised to put the Award down his trousers if ''Get Stuffed'' won, because that's what he did, to the bemusement of presenter [[Bob Shaw]].
