Right. But your configuration only had two server blocks: one with
server_name "morebearsmore.com" and one with server_name "strattonbrazil.com",
so there is no one for "www.morebearsmore.com", and since you didn't have
"default_server" parameter in any of them, then nginx just picked up the
first included in nginx.conf file.
