It is the 30-th already, and neither from our team got any response yet (anyone else haven't got a response till now too? Or is that we so unlucky?). Checked in the trash folder, under the subfolders, and in the outbox (just to be sure). My ISP will kill me for DDOSing their IMAP.

Of course, we won't stop our project if not invited by Paul-and-the-team. Together with Y, or separately, we'll keep working on it, and, as every self-confident startupper does, we truly believe into it and are sure that it will hit the Web, gain several billions and finally takeover both Google and Apple, so that every investor-who-ignored-us will kick themselves thinking of missed profit...

... but holy, where is that email?

I'm still waiting on a response too...maybe it's some kind of YC startup challenge; none of the undecideds get notified, and the team that handles the pressure the best gets the final spot!

Or is that a challenge of self-sufficiency in an ICFPC style? "Claiming you are a hacker but crying you haven't received a response? Come to our server and get your response yourself!"

okay, we've got 1 spot left but i'm tired of sifting through these entries. let's cagematch the remaining 50 groups and see who's left standing...

should have done that from the beginning IMHO. i fight dirty

Ok, but all jokes aside, we're still waiting for an email :(. I might have made a mistake, but I'm pretty sure I triple-checked my email address in the application, and I also have it in my profile. I know my application was submitted, since I received a question from pg himself.

Maybe something went awry with the mail script? I don't want to assume one way or another until I get an actual response...All I know is that productivity is going to suffer today! Is anyone else still waiting?

Perhaps providing responses through the HN profile could be a good fix to this problem and the spam folder issue for future cycles?

my mail is terribly unreliable, but my co-founder got our rejection letter, just now managed to forward it to me :D

wanted to see me sweat, obviously

[honeyman]

Don't know if I could congratulate you or sympathize... but you definitely are much less strained now, then other remaining poor souls suffering from uncertainty.

Good luck. Maybe we'll meet one day, in Sequioa Capital or somewhere, and share a laugh on good old YC application times ...

[bporterfield]

honeyman, is your group still waiting on a response? Am I the only one left that can't find a response email?

[ram1024]
