Henry said:I'd allow it with the understanding that it was solely for fun, and that it was a "what-if" scenario only. Bragging rights are separate issues, because once you lay down a specific arena, conditions, etc. you can say that for this contest only the wining PC had a superior chance. If either party was going to be sore about the outcome, I wouldn't allow it.
In fact, years ago two players wanted to do this in my 2E campaign to see who would win. Between a Wizard and a Cleric, the ultimate winner was the wizard with the old "touch teleport him 500 feet up" trick. The wizard even had the brass to wave bye-bye at the cleric on the cleric's way down.
