I can't easily come up with a top ten of my own; as with some many of these top tens I change my mind week to week.
Your's is definitely crunchier and longer play times on average than my likely choices. I have a soft spot for Civilization and Diplomacy, but don't really see any chance of playing them again in the next few years. I don't rate Settlers that highly any more. Other games have overtaken it in game balance and quality of play experience. I've never seen the point of Bridge, unfortunately. Agricola is on my to-play list. alaimacerc has recently bought a copy.
Puerto Rico would still make my top ten, I think. Race for the Galaxy is working its way on to the list too. But after that I'm unsure of what I'd pick.
