After the strange origin of the Australia in 2010 Worldcon bid, chaired by Melbourne fan Stephen Boucher, two competing NASFiC hoax bids sprung up. One, announced by Australian fan Bruce Gillespie, was to host that year's NASFiC in Melbourne, Florida. The other, created by Kevin Standlee and Cheryl Morgan, would host the 2010 NASFiC in Brisbane, California. Neither bid appears to have gone beyond the internet musing stage and ReConStruction, which eventually won the 2010 NASFiC, did so without any real competition and only minimal hoax competition.
