I did too. I am shaking so much I can barely type... I am shocked.
- mukund 20y ago
  hey congrats to u too :)
- blader 20y ago
  DUDE. So was I! My hands could barely dial my partner's number on my cell phone!
- hganchev 20y ago
  Let us know of the deal at the end. I am really interested about the % they will ask for.
joshwa 20y ago
hmmn... nothing yet. I hope this doesn't mean they sent the yeses in one batch and the nos in another...
- dfranke 20y ago
  Let's hope they're just sending them off one by one. But I'm not going to speculate. That way lies madness.
  - joshwa 20y ago
    was thinking the same thing.. those that got emails: did they look hand-composed or mail-merged? It'd be silly to ask for email headers to check the client, right? :-P
    - blader 20y ago
      Well, it wasn't a personalized email, and it was CC'd to an anonymous list.
      - joshwa 20y ago
        thanks for the data! congrats! (and fingers crossed...)
        Leonidas 20y ago
        Congrats to you guys! How totally exciting. I think I'm going to get blisters from constantly refreshing
        joshwa 20y ago
        well, I've got new spam, but no new ham.
rintaun 20y ago
Congrats.
nostrademons 20y ago
Congrats! I didn't, so I'm guessing I didn't make it this time around. Oh well.

Has anyone received a rejection email yet?
- yaacovtp 20y ago
  Think positive, otherwise you'll get bad karma.
- danw 20y ago
  I got a rejection email just now
  - dfranke 20y ago
    Bummer. I guess that finally puts a fork in the karma theory of YC admissions.
    - danw 20y ago
      There were too many reasons against me in my application. The idea is weak, poorly explained, no demo, etc. My cofounder also dropped out on me after we submitted the application so I would have had to disclose that I'm now a single founder which would have guaranteed rejection. Never mind, on to plan B.
- joshwa 20y ago
  just got my rejection. :(
  - knewjax 20y ago
    Rejected. I am curious. Did all the accepted applications provide a demo or prototype link in their application?
    - jey 20y ago
      No.

does anyone want to share a hotel room for Saturday and Sunday night? Conversely, if anyone wants to house a Ycombinator interviewee for two nights, I would be eternally in their debt. Thanks, Mark
