Yes, I think you are right. Hard to see in the picture but the magnets may be skewed after all. And it would explain the feltmarker lines drawn on the rotor (I only noticed those lines now).

As far as any rule of thumb goes; Zubbly in one of his 3 .pdf files explained how to skew (http://www.otherpower.com/images/scimages/4/zubbly2.pdf and http://www.otherpower.com/images/scimages/4/z_conversion_all.pdf). Basically he said 'skew by one slot'. I've slightly modified that rule (it goes wrong when you use relatively little magnets per row, i.e. 2 or 3) and let a bit of math loose upon it. See this .pdf file:
