  Heres one I just made up.  I say either way if their attribute is below 
ten you should crush their chances.  In a contest between brain pans, 
strength of heart, or wrist locks; I consider 10 to be the bare minimum to 
overcome a human's own llimitations.  The minimum St to carry an object 
equal to your own weight, or the ten is the minimum Dx to catch something 
that they themselves knocked over.  Some people just can't do a pull-up, or 
many push-ups.
  But for those people with high attributes, particularly legendary 
figures, I feel the contest should be between their attribute total.  No 
matter what the stated nature of the contest.  Inteligence and Dexterity can 
play a lot in a track meet, not just the Strength.  Even indian wrestling 
has a lot more than just balance to it.
  So my submission, colored by trying to approach the bridge from the 
existing rules, is as follows...

  demi rules     3d6  vs.  att total / 3  round down
  god rules      3d6  vs.  att total / 10 round down

  examples...

  demi rules
human
  10 or less on 3d6
giant
  13 or less on 3d6
lesser demon
  26 or less on 3d6
14-dragon
  46 or less on 3d6

  god rules
human
  10 or less on 3d6
giant
  13 or less on 3d6
lesser demon
  26 or less on 3d6
14-dragon
  46 or less on 3d6
