If the criteria is "best" and "best-supported", these are subjective by nature.

Best may be subjective, but best-supported is not. The selection process works by applying multiple levels of peer review. Here are the levels:

  1. A page author has to have made a good page for the game.
  2. Programmers have to have made the game available for play.
  3. Players have to have been playing the game some place with public game records.
  4. Someone has to have nominated it.
  5. Someone has to have seconded it.
  6. Editors have to have not vetoed it.
  7. An editor has to select it from among the games that have already passed through the other levels.
