From the excellent Vice Guide to Getting Beaten Up:

CHOOSE YOUR BATTLES
You want to lose a fight? Start one. Every single fight I’ve picked I’ve lost. No one picks a fight they think they can lose, and overconfidence is your worst enemy in a battle. If someone gooses your sister and you have to start a fight, try to avoid men with scarring around the eyes and the ears. Men sporting cauliflower ears and scar tissue on their eyebrows only get that way from training.

This most useful article is also replete with such gems as:

IT’S NOT SO BAD
First of all, let’s cut the bullshit. Getting fucked up really bad isn’t that bad. Thanks to the anesthetizing tendencies of adrenaline it’s not even that painful. It’s more a pain in the ass than anything. You know as soon as that nose bone cartilage snaps you are looking at a long and boring 12-hour wait in the emergency room. When someone says, “I am going to fucking kill you,” think of it more as “I am going to audit you,” because all he’s really doing is adding a huge mundane thing to deal with into your next 24 hours. The truth is, the three-week-long pain of regretting that you pussied out is a hell of a lot worse than the dull nonpain of getting in a fight, so there’s no need to be scared. And hey, if you’re that calm you might even win.

Since this has been detached from the Ladder Standings page, I suppose it's safe to reply.  Rider, I totally agree about picking your battles.  Speaking of which, when are you going to join the ladder tourney?  I know there's people here ready for a match.

These stats also help support why I would choose martinburley as both my most and least favorite fight.  As you can see, he's both best against me and worst against me concurrently. 

[R Cohrs]

I'm updating these stats as games are played to the best of my ability.

I've been meaning to compliment you on these stats, R Cohrs. They're comprehensive and thought-provoking. Good on you for taking the time to produce them. 

And any statistics which list custardchuk in the 'most losses' category get a thumbs-up from me.
