I know that I'm not bidding this year, so this may be none of my business, but we encountered a similar problem when we bid all the way back for 2009. Might I suggest that a "presentation model" which requires people from many timezones to be present at one time might no longer be a suitable method to judge entries? Especially with more bids coming from outside of Europe and North America, it seems to me that whatever timezone you pick will be extremely inconvenient for *someone, *and it might be a better use of the organisers' time to come up with an alternative method, rather than desperately trying to come up with a time that everyone can be present?
