The only game that matters

The only game that matters. 
Opponent attacks with Robb stark, no intrigue icon. I play the only game that matters, characters without intrigue icon do not count their strength. I have no one to defend the 2 claim military challenge but have ceresi lannister with 6 power on her. and doubting septa in play. 
By reducing Robb Starks strength to 0 and I myself defending with no one does the challenge no longer take place? Or does tie still go to the attacker? Btw with CL I'm siting at 14 power to Starks 6. Stark is running siege of winter fell so this challenge is pretty much for the game.

You must have a total strength greater than 0 to win a challenge.  In your example, no one would win the challenge, and no one would lose.

But because there is still a character participating, the challenge would go to resolution (if Robb was removed from the challenge entirely, the challenge would end immediately).

Right. With the resolution being nullified because no one had a STR 1 or higher character involved in the challenge.

Careful with the "resolution being nullified" language. The resolution still HAPPENS, it just resolves with no winner and no loser. So anything that requires a winner or a loser (like claim, unopposed, and renown) don't resolve successfully. However, the challenge resolved successfully, so any "after a challenge resolves"-type stuff would still happen. (People might think otherwise if resolution were considered "nullified.")

There is a fine line between 'hobby' and 'mental illness.'
