What were the stats and style that you lost?  And what's the rollup?

Cool.  However, try not to fall into the trap that claims so many beginning
managers - the urge to get warriors really high, really quickly.  It is much
preferable to have a guy winning in lower initiates if his learning is doing
well, so that when you make C. Inits, you have the skill to justify the
ranking.  Winning is cool.  Winning consistantly is cooler.  But-awesome learns
are _way_ cool.

Dennis said this already, but I'll add my voice.  Popularity is an aspect of a
warrior that you don't really need to worry about.

BTW, what were your other fights like?
