Yes, but the principle is the same. There is no absolute "free will". Characters may be unable to take actions they are physically capable of, and which the player would like to do.

I disagree here. Just as the events of the contest may have (temporary) physical effects within the contest, affecting the actions available (e.g. a character may fall over) they may also have (temporary) psychological effects which affect the actions available to a character.
