If I told you that you not challenging his action-limit last post was the reason, would you still consider it unfair? Either way, I'll explain more of my reasoning:
~ The skin hardening Doton technique I do not count against the action count, similar to how I do not count lightning release armor post-turn of activation as an action. Same for the Mujin technique. I did not count the acid rain technique either because it automatically drains at his chakra, he is not manipulating it any further at this point.
~ After the turn of activation, I would not count you leaving your space-time negation barrier up as an action.
~ If you summoned Saiken and then he gathered the natural energy, if I were to rule on whether that's an action or not, I would rule that it is. However, unless I"m brought in for a ruling and its explicitly mentioned as a problem in the post, I am not going to tamper with the action post counting of the zoners.
With that last statement said though, for future (not this) rulings, I would like the participants to explain how they count actions so that if I am needed in the future I can rule in a manner consistent with how the majority of you view actions.
