I really don't feel this is the right approach to come up with a HN alternative. Maybe Hacker News has it's issues but, even if it Lamer News were a better option I do not think that somebody mocking 'competitors' (even though to be fair that is not even close - as this new site is only days old - as compared to HN) is a 'leader' worth following in forming a new community.
