on behalf of everyone in the chat room who is incessantly asking, when should we expect notification (either way). people are consumed by this question and meaningful business/coding discussion has ceased.
- pclark 16y agolast time we got our email 6 hours from now.
- shib71 16y agoIt's not often you get to say something like that outside of science fiction.
- davidcuddeback 16y agoI got a kick out of saying that when I flew back from New Zealand last week. My flight left around 7:00pm New Zealand time and arrived around 1:00pm California time on the same day (crossed the international date line), so I could tell people "my flight left 6 hours from now."
- addoway 16y agoJust have to pull through and get that coding done. The anxiety you are feeling right now is actually adrenaline. Just use it to your advantage to get more done. Nothing changes after we hear back. We still work whether it be with YC or not. Life goes on and so does our companies.
- pg 16y agoProbably before 10 pacific.
- mindsetlabs 16y agohaha, we have to make sure we keep working on the MVP even as we chomp on the nails to see if we get into YC. :)
- MrFlibble 16y agoSee, this is where a fake notification date for the 3rd could be useful. That way when you get notified a day early on the 2nd, you are pleasantly surprised and haven't been dwelling on it all day.
- StavrosK 16y agoYeah but then they'd know the next time. I think it would be better if they had decided by the previous day, so they could send all the emails the morning of the last day and not have people obsess all day long...
- schlichtm 16y agoIn the end you will either get an email or you will not. It doesn't matter when it is sent. You will also either start a company or not. It doesn't matter whether you get accepted or not. Most importantly though - isn't it fantastic to be worried and nervous about this? If you're biting your nails right now it's because you put yourself in this position. You worked hard and spent energy on something you cared about and now you get to be judged. Just keep making yourself nervous and putting yourselves in these situations where you get feedback and can iterate and move forward. This is our crack.
- pg 16y ago10 pm is a fake notification time.
- MrFlibble 16y agoHa! I like the cut of your jib.
- twitter_v2 16y agoHey for those of you in the US no problem, it's 10pm here in London and pg said we might be notified before 10pm pt. Nails I can bite, but sleep now...you joking right!
- dirktheman 16y agoSame here in the Netherlands. It's almost midnight, so it looks like I'm pulling an allnighter again. It's all good though, might as well get some work done!
- twitter_v2 16y agoGood man! Good to hear from people this side of the "fibre link". We could do shifts you know!
- ecargnfx 16y agohey, where is the chatroom? I had lost the link to it
- neurotech1 16y agoI received my rejection notification at 7:27PM Pacific time. I'll work on my startup anyway, and see how I go.
