I'd be glad to AI!
We've got: Caledorn/Plako Agent427/TBS Dreylin/Ipecac/Ruff AdrianIer/Old Harry So still to match up are: 1. Whosit - America 2. Elum - Europe? (just going on the times he's posted here) 3. Grimace + wetbandit - America A. mackoti - Europe B. WilliamLP - America C. Gavagai - Eurasia Anyone want to roll some dice (and disregard any result where Elum gets William?)

I would say go ahead and pair William and Whosit then. I don't mind having a mentor not in my timezone as long as we have some overlap. For instance, Caledorn is in Norway, but he's always up late so we actually overlap for 8 hours, sometimes longer.
Is the expectation that the mentors will take a more active role than just advising through posts? Chatting, maybe even screensharing? If so, then timezones are highly important. If not, then it's much less so.
I expect a combination of whatever works best. Forum posts, screens, chats, etc. Whatever works best for the teams in question.
As the Americans learned so painfully in Earth's final century, free flow of information is the only safeguard against tyranny. The once-chained people whose leaders at last lose their grip on information flow will soon burst with freedom and vitality, but the free nation gradually constricting its grip on public discourse has begun its rapid slide into despotism. Beware of he who would deny you access to information, for in his heart he dreams himself your master. - Commissioner Pravin Lal, "U.N. Declaration of Rights"

What time zone are you in? Feel free to pick one of the remaining mentors if they match what you want.
So that leaves
1. Whosit 2. Grimace + Wetbandit and A. WilliamLP B. Gavagai Randomly assigning one of the former to William: Random.org gave me a 2 So Whosit and Gavagai are one team and Grimace, Wetbandit and WilliamLP are the other. Teams: Caledorn/Plako Agent427/TBS Dreylin/Ipecac/Ruff AdrianIer/Old Harry Elum/Mackoti Whosit/Gavagai Grimace/Wetbandit/WilliamLP Jojo - you should probably just pick whoever you think needs your help/sounds most interesting/shares a timezone. We've got a forum now so go and set up your threads!
