I think Dirt Kicking might be bugged. Here's a piece from a battle I fought recently. Notice I was dirt kicked and continue to see just fine? No tick past, I didn't rub dirt out of my eyes, nothing like that at all. Yet after being dirt kicked I wasn't blind.

The code works just fine, it's just screwy messages.
That's the you saved message, in case you didn't notice.
You just get "You can't see" if it works...
I think personally that the message you got should be the one where you get blinded, and a new one about "dodging the dirt they kicked towards you" inserted.

Funnily enough, it looks just fine from the kicking end...

I noticed that if you are frenzied when you get dirt-kicked, then you get the message that you can't see but you still can.

Well dirt has three possible outcomes.
1 Success+blind.
You get the "You can't see a thing" msg when attacked and the "xxx is blinded by the dirt in his/her eyes" msg when attacking.
2 Success, damage but not blindness.
You get the "xxx dishonorably kicks, sending dirt flying into your eyes.
YOU CAN'T SEE! " msg when attacked.
You get the "Your dastardly tactics pay off as xxx grabs his eyes as you send dirt flying into them" (something like that) msg when attacking.
3 Failure, no need to explain this.

So no this is not a bug but I guess the "YOU CAN'T SEE" msg should be removed.
