Thanks! I missed the deadline for winter funding but this time I told myself no matter what I wouldn't miss it. I turned it in a couple weeks early even. I just want to remind everyone that is applying with me this time around that even if you don't get funding, you shouldn't quit. Simply applying to Ycombinator means you are more motivated than most people, pursue your dreams and don't surrender. If you truly believe in your idea, then you can make it and be amazingly successful. So don't allow not getting an interview or a getting accepted stop you, you should go and become huge anyways, because I know I will!
