something happened that's causing it to be delayed?
I doubt it was something in particular. Maybe there just wasn't any train falling on NK, so he didn't get the inspiration yet. Um, I mean rain.

The polar bears convened here not for the first time, but this was the most important occasion. The existance of the Malukate of Syria, and with it, the entire operational situation in stNNES7 was at stake. On the table lay strategic maps, long reports and "Polar Bear" beer advertisement posters; the six polar bears were exchanging them, looking them over and nervously tapping on the table.
"Where is he, anyway?" - asked Grrambraherr angrily.
"Quiet!" - hissed Dragrrahr, with horror in his eyes - "We must not anger... HIM."
There was an eerie silence.
These six polar bears were amongst the most powerful polar bears in the multiverse, they were military district commanders Grrambraherr, Dragrrahr, Oarrgh, Hrebrrgryk, Rhoaghr and Breyerrgh. But even they shuddered when they thought of HIM. For HE was much greater then even they.
"He should come," - reminded Breyerrgh - "as soon as the First of Rosh comes. But there are just a few seconds left until that."
The snowatch, which was like a sandwatch but with snow instead of sand if you didn't guess that yet, which nobody up to then noticed, had just a few... little pieces of snow left to go. The polar bears put on their special visor equipment and stared intensily as snow piece after snow piece fell.
"Twentynineteeneighteenseventeensixteenfifteen..." - they counted together. The snow pieces, in outrageous accordance with laws of gravity, continued falling.
"...eleventennineeightseven..."
A penguin kamikadze tried to blow the place up but was tackled and eaten by the guards.
"...sixfivefourthreetwotwotwotwo..."
"Wait, what the heck?" - asked Oarrgh.
"Ah, darn, not again." - said Dragrrahr - "That happens often lately, the reality is lagging due to too much information, the moderator is overloaded with useless data. You know how it is."
"Yes. Do you think the penguins did it?" - asked Oarrgh.
"Oh definitely..."
The polar bears continued exchanging senseless phrases while waiting for the last two seconds to happen.
"Don't you think that this Symphony D. imitation thing is beginning to get rather old?" - asked a passerby giant cockroach.
"Oh, quite." - agreed another giant cockroach and they blew up in two oversized supernovas out of boredom.
