I don't think...
And maybe I'm mistaken...
I've never had to ask for a judge call.
I usually work it out with my opponent.

Realism is just a frame of reference that we use for common ground. It's understood that the rules are often bent, tweaked, and generally toyed with, so long as some sort of logic is maintained. So to some degree, realism plays a part, but it's understood that to some degree it's going to get pushed aside here and there.
You have to have a certain degree of realism.. but it's more appropriate to reference it as "logic." It doesn't have to be true-to-reality realistic, but it has to make sense.
At the end of the day, you have to learn when to say yes and when to say no to what you're opponent does. Personally, my approach has been to say "yes" to what my opponent wants to do in order to build off of it instead of going "no, you can't do that" and try to force something else.
That's why no one has ever demanded a judge call against me, even though I've won pretty much all of my fights (with a handful of exceptions; two no-contests, a single double KO, and a split-decision loss). Because instead of saying "No, you can't do that" I say "Yeah, you can do that, but I'll do THIS in response."

I've had one.
A guy that can apparently slap sky scrapers in half was upset that my character didn't die when he slapped her.

I don't know. You tend to have a bully like feel when it comes to your posts, Darth. It just means who can logically bully their opponent more.

Vintrict Sokoya used her MEGA BONE DRIVER technique. Nah. That was with Hoshiko. I literally just had one arm, two legs, and a lot of punches and kicks.

The Thunder Tyrant Because instead of saying "No, you can't do that" I say "Yeah, you can do that, but I'll do THIS in response." This is all that matters... realism is not the same as logic imo. Realistically speaking... nothing we do in RP's can be feasible. Logically speaking... it's all feasible given the parameters we have redefined to be our base of standard.
