You're thinking of Quick Contests, where it's a one-off Contested skill or attribute roll, the highest skill is reduced to 14, the lower one is reduced by the same amount the higher one was reduced.

It's a useful method of determining a contested action when you need a more clear winner and loser and you're not just comparing Margins of Success.
