Holy fuck, that's awesome! Reminds me of negative sanctions cards, and gift cards in MA games, but this much cooler.

ZAjokester:
Turn 7, Timinator does not know how many armies will be left over in Panama at the end of the turn. He wants to blockade, but he only needs some armies to make a decent blockade -- if he has leftovers at the end of the turn, he wants those leftovers to transfer to Colombia instead of being part of the blockade in Panama. So first, he uses a transfer-only into an enemy territory (Mexico) to "mark" the armies for the blockade: the transfer will fail, and since the armies cannot have two different orders in the same turn, the armies will remain in Panama no matter what. Any leftovers that are not "marked" will transfer to Colombia; this didn't happen in the game because dead piggy stacked into Panama.

smart trickery! i have used the % transfer back trick a few times, but never a transfer only to lock a few armies in place.

They don't count as delays, to my knowledge.

when the move is not possible it doesn't count as delay (game just goes for next move in queue instead)
