Ideally the team/player selection menus should be oriented the same way players are sitting in the room: horizontally. The current menu forces moderators to remember – on every single buzz – whether they entered a team's players in left-to-right or right-to-left order, and is thus a usability and efficiency issue. (The only ambiguous situation is players sitting in two columns perfectly perpendicular to the moderator.)
While variable widths of player names may be potential issue, I don't think it is that serious of a blocker; the real-life context of use of these menus (sitting at desks in a room) should inform the design more than a Microsoft design language default or guideline.
If a horizontal layout is really infeasible, then a label like (from left to right) shown in the selection menus is an alternative idea.

I've considered this in past attempts at MODAQ, but a horizontal layout was cluttered or confusing. Readers can reorder players to fit their preference of left-to-right or right-to-left, so I'm not too concerned with this. It's possible that this could be made into a UI option, although other issues have higher priority right now.
