I'm trying to get into an accelerator and they want a pitch deck but my 'team' slide is ridiculous.

I've built everything myself (didn't even hire consultants). My product is a specialized ML-cloud based service that none of my friends are qualified to be a co-founder in....

I couldn't find an answer in quora or google (they say add your friends - which would be conspicuously false)... Should I leave blank spots "to be filled soon" or something so it's not as silly? Or a team of robots with my face plaster on all of them (probably asinine)?

Thank you if you can suggest something you've seen successfully work before...

Is there a general consensus of web or online or internet? My company is doing X on the web? Seems dated?

I notice some people's usernames are green in hacker-news. What's the significance of that and how do I do it?

Other than answering HN/reddit forum questions, is there a site that I can help startups without having to become part of an accelerator/etc? My juices/excitement flows when I'm helping but I'd like to do this for fun, not a job.

Specifically, a site that goes beyond submitted questions on a forum, something of a formal process with delegated advisors based on expertise (my time is precious and my expertise specific, I can't filter 1000 questions for the 10 I can help on).

Thank you for any information!
