UW XXIII Week 4 Results

Lots of challenges and a gob of gladiators challenged out of the contest.  The field has narrowed.  One manager, unfortunately, was eliminated as this was the 4th week of the contest.  Here is the updated list for Week 4.  Challenge accordingly.  

Only 113 warriors remain in the contest, of these, only 18 are veterans with 100+ fights. I expect that total to be less than 10 next week. One manager has six gladiators still in the running while eighteen has 3-4 gladiators remaining. Next week should chop this number in half or more.

I'm trying not to do more than once challenge per manager, unless it is Gernads, of course.

I am a bit confused (and I could probably find the info somewhere around here, but I’m being lazy…)
What are the rules - and the etiquette - regarding challenges? Is it ok to challenge any UW with any other warrior (UW or not) ?
Thanks!

In order for a warrior to still be in UW, he must 1) not issue any challenges, and 2) win every fight.

So once one of your guys loses a fight, he can then start challenging gladiators who are still in the contest.

OK thanks. I had missed the last part… interesting!
And I guess challenging one of your friends UW with a deliberately losing strategy is not acceptable (though hard to prove…)

Such a strategy might give a gladiator a pass for a week, but eventually challenges from other managers will get through.  UW can last for many, many weeks and as the numbers dwindle, challenges are flying hot and heavy.
