    I'm the last one to complain about this (I always got a little worried that I would get accepted to YC because then I'd have to go to Mountain View 🙄😂) but I really wonder how this will affect success rates.

    1. Seems like Startup School with extra money now
    2. From what I've heard, most value came from watercooler talks with high-profile people
    3. People might slack off and not feeling the enthusiasm
    4. Some VCs really hate doing remote deals

    What do you think?
