Some few SMoFs would have been annoyed if A4 wasn't on their chosen US-centric date. Would they have cared enough to try to, say, run an opposing bid? I doubt it.
Before you start making claims, I suggest that you try looking at the facts: check out the dates for the past several worldcons and you will see that they have been run on several different weekends other than the one used by A4. Your claim is completely bogus - the date for Aussiecon 4 was chosen by the committee because it is the latest of the traditional worldcon (not *US* worldcon) dates and meant it would have the best chance at decent weather. It had nothing to do with somehow annoying "some few SMOFs."
