is there anyone who hasn't received anything?
we haven't, and we applied before the deadline. they did email to say there was an embedding issue with our video, which we quickly corrected, but may have thrown things off.

#93Just curiously - how many video views did everybody get? We had 5 views for a total of ~4 minutes.
Links to one public, embeddable youtube video (like the directions asked) were presented inline during review and were much easier to watch.
If your video wasn't on youtube, or it wasn't embeddable, or you used a third party link shortener (not youtu.be) - reviewers had to do extra work to view your video.

#94We've offered this before, and are doing so again, because startups are hard and a YC rejection is but one roadblock you will face (among many). So, Tinfoil Security is offering our $59 Basic plan free for life, and 50% off all other plans. Happy to keep startups secure :) Email your YC rejection letter to founders@tinfoilsecurity.com and we'll hook you up.
omg!! Thank you very much :)..here comes my email!!

#96Rejection by YC does not mean your idea/team/execution is not good. Just keep working on your startup, in the mean time you may want to try some other top programs like techstars, 5000startups, angelpad, etc
so many accelerators that provide the same value as YC out there - http://www.seed-db.com/accelerators

#99I also got the email above for my startup activepractice.com.au. Apparently, they are not joking when they say you need a technical co-founder. Anyone who is interested, drop me a line.
