I think we should be able to queue Flight Delays.
Kinda like how a person can have 10 bounties, let us stack up to 10 Flight Delays on someone.
The stacked flight delays can expire like a bounty so a person could technically avoid them. This would allow people who have a grudge to flight delay someone instantly instead of waiting and then trying to find someone at that time to delay them.
Nothing else changes from the system other than a person can have flight delays added before they actually fly and if they go unused after a period of time, they expire so it's a risk to the person paying for the delay it may not get used. When they fly they get the notification they were delayed, like normal.
This would also allow someone to buy a delay for both sides of the trip at the same time.

I also think adding a reason to the flight delay would be entertaining. Like the bounty system someone could say why.

bounties =/= flight delays. the idea of the flight delay is that someone called in an anonymous threat. if that happened before the plane took off, it just wouldn't take off. and it's anonymous. a message would go against that.

i get where you're coming from but probably best to leave it as is.

The issue with this is it could be used to achieve full turtle. Just make someone fight delayed for x amount of time to be naccessible to hit for however long you've queued delays. Turtling is already an widely used strat. This would exacerbate the issue..
