It's hardly long at all when they told you ahead of time that there'd be delays - It's still friday after all, and if you look up a smidge you'll see they mentioned trying to get a post up by today. It might not happen because of busy busy, but you can hardly act like the thread went dead silent suddenly. So be productive and try to RP, or distract yourself with some other shenanigans until they get the chance to move the plot along. :p
