I think the possible problem with saying "game delayed X hours by request of nation Y" is that if a player in this game is in another game(s), and posts on that games thread(s) "Can I please get a 24 hour delay" then it might start becoming obvious which nation that player is in this game if it is announced which nation requested the delay, especially if it happens more than once. If there is no message at all regarding a delay, or just a basic one, then it becomes a lot harder to figure out who is who. And protecting player indentities is key I think to a good RAND game.
Yes, I had that thought as well.
