I have a degree from McGill, a fine Canadian university.

Grading was a raw score 0-100

So maintaining the North of the border tradition let me regrade ANY

Tech Capability 99
Strategic Planning 95
Execution of Business Plan See Freedom of information Act
Investor relations 10
Shareholder Comm. 10

Comments: Left substantial room for improvement in communication and people skills.

The reasons they gave for rejecting your article do not make sense. Just wondering if you complained about the rejection to them and if you received any more clarification. Here is what they call their Editorial Principles:

"Seeking Alpha tries to select outstanding articles from credible authors and edit them for clarity, consistency and impact. Among other principles, our editors follow the following criteria in deciding whether or not to accept an article for publication:

The author must agree in writing to Seeking Alpha's disclosure standards.

Articles must interest our readership. For stock-oriented posts, we consider carefully: Whether the article helps a fundamentally-oriented investor decide whether to buy or sell the stock in question? Does it provide meaningful information about or analysis of the company's competitive environment, management, products, corporate strategy, earnings potential or balance sheet? We don't generally post pure technical analysis of stocks or option trading ideas that aren’t fundamentally based. For macro posts, we consider whether the article is helpful for stock-market investors: To what degree is its viewpoint 'actionable'? Is it written for investors, or is the article's key focus on politics, economics, marketing, etc.?

Articles must conform to Seeking Alpha's standards of rigor and clarity. In order to best use our editorial resources, we often reject articles that require extensive copy-editing, are poorly written, or unusually long.

Articles about a stock trading at less than $1 or with a market cap below $100 million will see extra scrutiny but are still eligible for publication.
Seeking Alpha does not accept or reject articles based on the stock covered (other than the $1.00 rule) or the editor's agreement or disagreement with the contributor's viewpoint.

The stocks covered on Seeking Alpha, and whether articles are bullish or bearish, are determined by our contributing authors (having satisfied quality and integrity criteria), and not by our editors. Editorial changes to articles are intended to clarify the author's viewpoint and may not interfere with the substance of the author's argument or viewpoint. Our strict adherence to these editorial guidelines means that Seeking Alpha authors are genuinely independent.

Authors are required to disclose personal positions in stocks they write about. Since Seeking Alpha's editors have no input into which stocks are covered or the nature of the commentary on them, they are not required to disclose positions in articles they edit."

Even with todays very low price, ANY's market cap still exceeds their $100M minimum, and ALL stocks are speculative. Their rejection makes absolutely no sense unless they in fact do have an agenda.
