There were German, British and Irish folks in our batch -- and for the record, we were in the last batch (last summer) of YC. Interviews for the next batch still haven't happened yet.

I've never heard of YC finishing them up before relatively late at night. Answers go out by mail at almost exactly the same time as rejections.
