Okay. Please realize that I can advise users on requests, but I'm not Staff, so I don't have any authority on any other wikis, and I don't make the ultimate decision on your request. User:Merrystar is likely to be the one to actually process your request, so if you must argue your case, argue it to her (or better, on the adoption request page itself).

Adoption is a versatile process and it is done on a case-by-case basis: the guidelines are guidelines, not 100% rules, and exceptions may be made. If not presented the details about your block, Merrystar has the tools she needs to go find it out: as such it may be best to go full-disclosure and discuss the situation in-depth and why it isn't justified. That would probably be the best way to get your request approved.
