I would say anyone who strongly wants to share their own list of story-focused games should start their own rec thread. Diversity and friendly competition are good things. Adding other people's recommendations to the OP is in my opinion problematic for a number of reasons: it would increase jufot's administrative workload, it would make the OP more chaotic and confusing, and it would likely undermine the criteria jufot set out to define what "story-first" means in his view. I imagine it also wouldn't feel very good to feel obligated to add other people's recommendations to the OP that you might completely disagree with.It would be great, if there would be something like an additional section in the first post called “People's recommendations” or something similar with recommendation from other people that didn’t make it to the main jufot’s list for any reason.
That way he keeps his reputation of having high standards, and people have more (usually) good games listed to try.
Everyone of course has their own opinions. There are games on the list that would never make it on mine if I did one and a fair number of games I esteem will likely never win jufot's favor. I still prefer the thread continue as is. The system works well, and we have a culture that lets us discuss any game in the thread even if it has virtually no chance of making the list. Let's not mess too much with a good thing!
