Last year, the NBPTS had announced their board-certified teachers by now. This year, instead, we got an email saying "Hey, it'll be on or before December 31st, so stop bugging us." Okay, I will.
But I still check out my profile three times a week or so.
Today, I went to the login page. When I clicked on the candidate link on top, I got a page saying the profile is "temporarily unavailable." But when I clicked on the link at the bottom, the one where board-certified teachers can change their information, I was able to log in this morning. (Within a few hours, that link also was "temporarily unavailable.")
Does this mean I got certification? That I'm no longer a candidate, but that I'm a Mickey-Fickey National Board Certified Teacher?
Hard to say. It could just be a computer glitch. But I think that they've taken the links down so they can put the results up. And I hope it's closer to RIGHT NOW than it is to December 31st.
UPDATE: Yeah...it was nothing. I can log back on now as a candidate but not as a NBCT. Oh well. Resume waiting game.

I am am English teacher in Gainesville, FL waiting for scores too. Your two or three times a week pales in comparison to my three or four times a quarter hour. In fact, I have a conspiracy theory that the NBPTS people see around watching to see who is checking scores during school hours. Those who overcheck (see: me) are out. Good luck to you. Kepp in mind that it is usually a two-year process and that finishing in one year is a bonus.
