Ah right - we weren't aware of the ranking penalty. Previous "rate my startup" submissions were pretty universally non-linked ones, so we went with that, assuming direct links were specifically frowned upon for these posts for some reason. Live and learn... |

My suggestion would be to create a landing page for HN readers, and then link to that. Put something attractive (but accurate!) as your title, and submit a link to the landing page. There you can solicit opinions and suggestions, ask for comments, explain your reasoning, etc.
That would also be much more readable than a large slab of darkish grey on lighter grey.
Just my thoughts - I don't speak for the management, and have a tendency to strong opinions, unsupported by facts.
