From what I've seen a good successful recruitment post either:
Highlights a very cool concept that makes the map stand out from the rest
or
Showcases a cool thing the map contains with example screenshots or video.
You may have a hard time recruiting people for a mystery project simply because there are many projects out there and a fewer number of talented individuals to work on the maps. To enlist these people, your map must really stand out from dozens and dozens of projects that are floating around sc2mapster, bnet and other related sites. I can understand wanting to keep it secretive, but I thought I would just point this out. :)
Perhaps there is something about the map that you can go into without spoiling too much? There are more ways to garner attention than simply laying your map out for all to see. Perhaps going into detail about a cool feature, a character biography or some backstory. Anything to make people excited (or at the very least, mildly curious enough to contact you in private).
