As with everything, you can become too focused on a formula as your 'winning solution' or 'silver bullet'. YC is a formula. There are many formulas to success.

YC is a leg up, not the ultimate be-all and end-all of getting your startup on it's feet.

Explore your other options. :)

Search for "how startup funding works" by Anna Vital. You will realize that YC is uncle.

i think problem is wys is not wyg. Someone wants to surf and we are becoming the wave.

I would love to hear alternatives.
