A quick definition of single combat:

Single combat is a fight between two or more people using deadly weapons. It is usually prearranged and fought under specific rules in front of witnesses. People engage in single combat to settle a previous quarrel or to seek revenge. In England and the United States, death resulting from single combat is treated as murder, and those who assist in arranging the fight may also be held responsible. Single combat is also known as a duel or monomachy. It is different from an affray, which is a sudden fight that occurs without prearrangement.

A more thorough explanation:

Single combat is a type of fight between two or more people using deadly weapons. It is usually prearranged and follows specific rules. The purpose of single combat is to settle a previous quarrel or seek revenge for a deed.

In England and the United States, death resulting from single combat is treated as murder. The seconds, or witnesses, may also be held responsible as accessories.

For example, if two people have a disagreement and decide to settle it through single combat, they would choose their weapons and agree on the rules of the fight. The fight would take place in the presence of at least two witnesses. If one person dies during the fight, the survivor could be charged with murder.

Single combat is different from other types of fights because it is prearranged and follows specific rules. It is also different from an "affray," which is a fight that occurs on a sudden quarrel.

When I get home I think I will pull up a youtube yoga video and lay out the mat by the fireplace now, feeling guilty I haven't been stretching properly

Gotta always be ready to release that energy. Like if I am in a fight at the bar, I just gotta bust out a couple punches. No stretching.

@babycat: If the person I am mentoring decides to listen to my advice instead of just discussing my advice I will pay you to tutor her. You seem like a smart, good and well put together person that she can probably learn well from.
