Just asking for self-motivational purposes! For example: 1. Plenty Of Fish sold to Match Group in 2012 for $575 Million, by sole founder Markus Frind.

Wondering if this well-touted event has benefited startup entrepreneurs seeking pre-seed or seed financing. Would love to hear both positive and negative experiences.

Just looking for a straight answer from anyone that knows for sure. I had always thought that YC purchased straight Common Stock for their 7% equity.

This page [http://www.ycombinator.com/documents/] implies that it's Preferred Stock, whereas this old link [http://old.ycombinator.com/documents/YC_CSPA.docx] downloads a Common Stock agreement.
