Thanks for the heads up. I think everyone is waiting impatiently to hear back from you guys. Good call on extending the deadline too.

One question though: I have been checking this site every day for any potential questions from YC regarding my product / startup, just by scanning the "new" and "ask" sections for anything that may be related.

Is there a simpler way to spot if there was a question directed at me?

Thanks!

I wondered this too, and was worried I'd miss questions. I poked around though and found this on quora: http://b.qr.ae/UDFIqn

Apparently questions are not super common.

I remember a few years ago they asked me a question about my application. It was pretty easy to spot. If I remember, the topcolor changed and there was a new menu option that took me to the question (it basically looked like any other story on HN, except only me and pg were commenting).

Now I kind of wish I took a screenshot.

I read a post about this on quora, it's actually very rare that they will ask questions. It's the exception rather than the rule.
