  Could you give any background on your sorting algorithm? What about stats on news.yc participation in the population?

    Giving it out wouldn't make much sense :) People will start to chase parameters YC looked at this year but the selection algo will probably change next year.

      I don't know about that, for instance I suspect that a significant number of accepted applicants aren't news.yc participants at all -- how are you going to game that?
