Hi. I can give you some quick information to help you right now, and if needed Merrystar will gladly respond too.

First, yes, all blocks are reviewed by Staff upon an adoption being filed. It does not instantly disqualify you if you have a block. I will use a quote from Merrystar's blog saying "When we review your request, we will look at your contributions on any wikia where you are blocked and ask the question, "Do I think this behavior is inappropriate for an admin?" The block will only count if the answer is yes."

In short, while blocks in first glance raise a red flag, it is not the deciding factor regarding if you will succeed in an adoption. They will look at your contributions on the blocked Wiki and see if you are eligible. If you look at your contributions where you are blocked, you should use your instinct and judgment on if Staff will hold it to you. Sounds to be just disagreements with local admins. If you didn't spam/vandalize or harass anyone, you should have nothing to fear during adoption.
