So, you didn't make a starter, huh?
Anywho...if you are making a steam you need to up the temperature a little...a steam is made using lager yeast at ale temps.

I just made a O'fest with wyeast Ofest yeast in a 1 quart starter, had nice activity after 8 hours.

I would have recommended making a starter at least 2 days ahead of time using lager yeast.
