Other than death from a lack of oxygen nothing would happen with no oxygen.

Nothing. The match won't light as the room is 100% methane, and therefore there is no room for oxygen which is required for combustion.

Methane is flammable - but only in the presence of oxygen.
The match won't even burn because there isn't any oxygen in the room.
As previously stated, you'll not be concious for long with nothing to breathe.

The methane will not ignite, but you will soon lose consciousness due to the lack of oxygen.
A mixture of methane and air will ignite if the concentration of methane is at least %5 but not more than 15%.

logic dictates you would never find out as you would
suficate - but generally a space occupied by 100 %
fuel needs oxygen as well to combust so the match would probably just go out
