What the 15 ???

[GravityMX]

umm, yeah it really depends on the surface of the ground. It could be slippery causing the snail to slide around. Also is the "stadium" cold or hot?

[racx_00]

The stadium is hot, so they both died of heat

[Jafar]

Caterpillar has the speed advantage...

[GravityMX]

Snail has the heavy armour!  

[Jafar]

No shell, remember?

[B'rrr]

and the Caterpillar doesn't have legs... so there goes the speeding advantage  

[Jafar]

The Snail/Slug loses more defense then the Caterpillar/Worm loses speed.

[B'rrr]

ahhh, even if the loss amount of defence is more, the loss of speed and loss of defence has the same % loss of advantage  

[Rosella]

The snail however is uses to moving and will move the same way even without its shell. On the other hand the caterpillar won't know how to  move due to its sudden leglessness and will therefore be defenseless, offenseless, speedless, and generally statless

[B'rrr]

ok, you got me clueless  

[koko_99_2001]

Oh wow...Rosella's good!!

[B'rrr]

lol, I still don't know who will win!! too difficult!! arrrrggg!! choices  

[GravityMX]

What about natural elements like which way the wind is blowing?

[racx_00]

Or what happens if a fifty foot wall surrounds the caterpillar , the slug/snail may die before making it to the other side

[B'rrr]

what if they are both pacifists?? then we have a problem

[racx_00]

What if they are in love with each other

[B'rrr]

then the female wins  

[racx_00]

Which one is the female though

[Jafar]

Wait wait! If a snail has no shell, it dies. Instant win for the caterpillar.

[racx_00]

It does not die without a shell

My disgusting and stupid friend pulled the shell off of a snail , and it lived
