On: Wanted: ‘Lost Einsteins.’ Please Apply

I really like the idea of sharing the project and getting feedback from community, the accountability of regular updates, and the voting system.

But I don't like the equity split. And I don't need investment. I don't particularly want to become a 'Pioneer' with access to the exclusive forum if I win the popularity competition, and I don't need a ticket to Silicon Valley.

Is there a way to join the website without commitment to future equity split? For example, it might be restricted to a section which is always outside the 'exclusive' are for winners who become Pioneers.

But it'd be cool to post my project and post regular updates, then have people follow, vote and comment on it on a regular basis to track the progress. Even if they are not experts and are simply other people on similar paths.

There's a community called Work in Progress that's kind of like what you describe: http://wip.chat/

Note: $20/mo subscription

Oh wow.. I literally just described something similar in a follow-up comment as a theoretically better approach.

Thanks for this.
