Hmmmm ... method 2 might be the most realistic of resolution though.
However, you might try att + 3d6.    Player A rolls 3d6 and adds the
total to their attribute score, Player B does the same.  Highest total
wins the contest.  This gives lower attribute characters a chance in a
contest with high attribute characters - and should work well for 
contests between high attribute characters as well.
