That's exactly what I was saying in the first place. As a collecting community, we should all look at each collector independently, and congratulate each person for what they've accomplished via their passion for games. We don't need to start comparing each other by numbers. Doing it faster, at a younger age, or having a bigger collection or more time and money are not factors that deserve more praise. Somebody who is struggling with money but has mustered up a collection of 20 games that they really love isn't less impressive than some 18-year-old kid with rich parents who has 2000 games. But that doesn't mean there's anything "wrong" with a young person with tons of games.

So if you guys want to get into the comparing games, you have to accept that not everybody defines "impressive" in the same way. It's not always who's fastest, youngest, and has the most. I said what I would find most impressive, but that doesn't mean I'm anything like that myself (I'm nowhere near 35, for one thing).
