To celebrate GameFAQs' tenth birthday CJayC hosted a contest in which the users listed their ten favourite games and then attempted to predict the overall top ten. For each wrong spot predicted the user would get a point, the user with the least points would win. Users got to choose their favourite games from either a drop-down list of 130 games or by submitting a game using the write-in function. This caused games that were not a part of the drop-down list to become neglected with only two write-in games being part of the final 100, Tales of Symphonia and Halo 2. The tiebreaker was what percent of people had the top game of the overall, Final Fantasy VII as their favourite. The answer was 24%.
