ASK PG: Got an acceptance email to Startup School, but confirmation was rejected

39 pointswave24 comments

I received an acceptance email to Startup School 2009, but the confirmation link says the application was rejected.

Maybe there is glitch that my HN username hasn't been entered into the accepted list or incorrect email was sent out.

Sorry, bug; should work now.

worked for me too.

Just wait until the West coast wakes up and it'll be cleared up then.

I'm just hoping the glitch is on the side of the site, rather than the email sent.

edit: it was the site. Cool!

I forgot my password but there isn't a "forgot password" link for me so I couldn't sign in to RSVP. Can anyone help?

yea - same thing with me. this is my second account. help us pg! :|

Bummer, did not make it this year :(

Yep, same here.

Same here.

Likewise.

Ditto

From people who went last year: do you think the information and experience justifies flying out from the east coast?

Experience: yes. I met a ton of awesome people

Information: In terms of the presentation contents, not as much. The actual presentations were all put online. I felt like I got a lot out of talking to the people, though.

(I'm from NYC, so I flew from the east coast, and am again this year)

I'm also from NYC; my partner and I are starting to look around to see what startup-related meetups / discussion groups / networks / etc there are in the city. Any recommendations for particularly good ones?

Me too.

There's a Hacker News meetup in NYC and a few tech meetups which are pretty interesting.

You can email me at myusername @ gmail if you want to chat.

I just moved to NYC as well. I would love to keep posted about all the HN happenings. Emailing you now.

I'm flying from Santiago, Chile. Btw, anyone else from Chile coming?
