IIRC it was started as a con about conrunners. "SMOF" is supposed to be a joke, remember? The people who really do rescue worldcons don't toot their own horns much in public. Yes, geeks geeking about running parties for geeks. Who knew?
(I've never attended one, myself. When the con came to CHicago, I'd already burned out from conrunning and had dived into depression instead.)
