Interesting that there's no feedback. If there's a process of online application, review and automated email with a standard response then surely some simple stock answer fitting to the application wouldn't be much effort. I guess if a certain number are just rejected because of sheer volume then I can understand.

If you read http://ycombinator.com/whynot/ it says that sheer volume is the issue.
