Actually, I had considered suggesting something similar to you. There've been lots of occasions over the past few years where small stuff could be handled "behind the scenes" during "downtime" without bogging down the game.
Planning strategy/meetings ICly is one such example. Devonshire had a situation where we stopped the game to do time after stopping the apothecary, and then spent a large portion of the first hour the next week debating his fate.
The yahoo group is a good place to Play by Post/Email...I'd prefer that over the message board because people can get notifications and reply without going to the site constantly.
So, my vote is yes. We ought to have ample time between now and Friday to go investigate the tunnels, and to have our druid return the bear to safety.
