Why don't we get all the rejected companies that haven't launched yet and make it our goal to launch on the same day as the accepted ones? There are way more of us right? I have an extra $1000 for publicity. Who's in?

#2I've launched but would support/fly-out to a reject event...
We get a space together and maybe present startups and then have a little party? Host our own demo day and make some type of support network for contacts and trying out each other's products?

#3Great idea. I'm in. Rejected for like the 5th time. The rejections get easier to take. I think the 3 months hence launch date is doable. It's useful to have it to work towards.

yes! a rejection connection! And I guess it doesn't matter if you have already launched you should still be in the demo day!

YnotC. Kind of clever. What about CYnot. Like !YC but backwards. Flip it and reverse it. We're distancing ourselves, making it our own, inverting the establishment.

#8Maybe we should have it the day after the YC investor day so we can invite all the YC staff too? Get to meet them at least?

#9I'm in. Keep us posted on details.
