Tree wins the fight. All her do-overs involved the death of her and her friends so she basically had no choice but to become this badass warrior determined to live. Phil just lived in a small town over and over. However he is far more brilliant than her as he basically schooled himself on intellectual and social pursuits like becoming a master concert pianist.
I think technically if we count their do-overs as a form of immortality then Phil would be more immortal. His time loop was infinite and reset him to the same day until he stopped being an as*hole and got the girl to fall for him. Tree would only respawn after she was killed. So she could have moved across the world or something and been fine. Phil had to initiate his own change or else he never would have gotten out.
How does Phil win the fist fight? I haven't seen Groundhog Day in quite some time, but I don't remember him going around fighting people aside from that one time he punched that guy.
Tree on the other hand has hurt and killed multiple people, multiple times through both her movies. She's got more skill by experience simply because that's basically all she does. Fight for her life.
He's a man and she's a woman and this is a fistfight (no weapons, no grappling, kicking, etc). Unless you have proof of her actually fistfight prowess (does she even have ko power to a man with her fists). And Phil probably punched that guy a million times. Therefore he has some power and snap to his punches.
Fist fight is just another term for a fight.
Grappling, kicking, etc. is allowed. No weapons though.
What you’re thinking of is a slug fest, where the characters just stand there trading blows.
What I described just now is what’s being debated.
As the thread starter I’m clearing up the OP to avoid any further confusion.
So, if you disagree w. me and start getting into some kind of meaning tangent I’m just gonna have to get the forum mod in here to ask you to not derail the thread.
I can be an ass (like Silent) and invoke the forum ruling that after a certain time the op can't change the thread. You stated "fist fight". That means with bare fists. Ducking, blocking, parrying is allowed but not kicking, wrestling, etc.
You should have stated h2h if you meant fight without weapons.
Anyway, she has a better chance to win if this is strictly h2h. But Phil still wins. She simply lacks the strength, weight, and power to ko Phil with her bare hands or out muscle him in a contest of strength. While Phil can simply one shot her if he lands a blow.
That’s great. You and KingD19 can debate that all day long
(if he’s up for it)
As for invoking the forum rules, they state
7) When the thread starter makes a new thread, it is very important to cement the conditions of the scenario in the first few posts. This is to avoid confusion and frustration among the other posters. It will not be acceptable for the thread starter to randomly change the conditions of the thread at random intervals. Once the settings/weapons/gear/handicaps/abilities/etc have been cemented in the first few posts of the thread, that is how they will stay. Therefore, be very sure and for certain of how you want your thread to be constructed.
I saw a discrepancy re: the OP within the first few posts between you and KingD19 so I addressed/clarified it, before any other posters got involved or things got any more confused between you two, so, hopefully now it’ll just be straight up debating and good natured oneupsmanship!
