Thing is, there are several great Westerns left!

I thought about this, and I had to weigh my needs against what I thought other people would do. It seems to me that as more Westerns get picked early, more Westerns will get picked. As you say, it's not as popular a genre as others, so many people may only have a limited number of Westerns that they have actually seen.
At this point, there are going to be 40 more movies chosen before I get to pick again. Prior to my choice, 4 of the first 33 picks were Westerns. If that average continues, there will be 5 more chosen before my 3rd Round pick. I can think of quite a few Westerns that I like, but I don't know how many of those will be left by my next pick. Even though I consider myself a fan of the genre, it is one of the weakest categories on my list, so I can withstand dropping to my 5th or 6th (or 10th) choice in other categories more than I can Westerns.
I guess what I'm really saying is, everyone should focus on filling up their Western choices and ignore the other categories.
