Well, your readboard submission got noticed, just not in a positive way... and promptly flagged, so most people can't even see it. Yay, spam filtering works.

Your other submission I very nearly missed the "example data" field, it looked like a very empty page that wants some unspecified data otherwise.

Put a page that tells people what they are looking at, don't force them to click things and follow steps without knowing what the end result is. Step-by-step onboarding is nice if a user has signed up for something, but you have to show what you offer before that happens. (and most people here will close the page as soon as there is a sign-up prompt, unless you really convinced them)
