So, what /was/ the way we're supposed to pair up with a mentor player? First-come, first-serve, or randomly assigned once the game was full?
I'm just doing my best out here.

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"

First-come, first-serve, or randomly assigned once the game was full? Well, are any of the mentors going to get offended if they're chosen last?  If so, then it should be random assignment.Otherwise, just post a list of who is available, and let the players ask/lay claim/mark in whatever method is culturally appropriate.
Wetbandit offered to team up with me in this game and I accepted. He says he doesn't feel qualified to be a mentor, but wanted to offer some help anyway. Not sure if that counts as a mentor or if an existing mentor still wants to jump in. But you can put the two of us in the list together.
Caledorn asked me to comb through and put together the current list, and this is what I have. If it is not correct, please let us know.
Players (7) Caledorn (plako) agent427 (The Black Sword) AdrienIer Dreylin + ipecac + Ruff_Hi Whosit Elum Grimace + wetbandit Mentors (6) plako Old Harry mackoti WilliamLP Gavagai The Black Sword Others willing to offer advice/assistance (1) GermanJoey Mapmaker: Krill/pindicator I wasn't sure whether to count Ruff_Hi as a mentor or not as his post indicated he was interested in being a partner to an existing player. Where mentor/player pairs have already been made I put the mentor's name next to the player/team and italicized them. If you wish you choose a mentor (or if a mentor would like to choose a particular player) go ahead and post. Once the other has agreed, we'll update the list. For GJ and Ruff, I don't know if you guys want to just pick someone to dedlurk, or if you want to partner/mentor. Since there is one fewer mentor than players/teams, there is an opening. I'll leave it to you to specify what level of involvement you want. EDIT: Added Ruff_Hi to TEAM DREYLIN
And now that that's out of the way, I will say that I wouldn't mind having mackoti as mentor, but I also don't mind going without. I'd rather someone who really needs the help has it, as I think with wetbandit's help we'll be able to muddle through.

I have finally decided to put down some cash and register a website. It is www.ruffhi.com. Now I remain free to move the hosting options without having to change the name of the site.
