There is CURRENTLY No Dualing, and no muting. For muting, I believe there might be a way to add a simple button or switch in the future, but the needed information is not available at this time.
As for the dualing that TagFerret was probably referring to in that post, I would imagine that it is purely by way of a hosted game, and only via a possible future version of the Phoenix LTX with the hosting code, plus a DIY interface and computer program, which would allow advanced gamers to do more intricate hosting... such as assigning the same player ID to more than one tagger, presumably with half of the stats of other players.
I described almost everything there is to be described about the Phoenix LTX. If I didn't mention it, it's probably not there. The only exception is that I forgot to mention the "keep alive" function for game over in a hosted game. If your Phoenix LTX says "Find host", you can just pull the trigger or reload or something, to reset the timeout timer to give you more time to return to the host. The host can wait for players who take too long coming back by pressing OK when the host tagger tries to debrief the missing player. I didn't think that was worth editing and re-uploading the video, though. I'll probably do a followup for the running code change version, which will hopefully have the hosting stuff, but will definitely have some other minor changes to make note of.
