Moving home today, so quite chaotic at the moment. Also my brother’s funeral tomorrow.
Will, once settled in new home, compile a list…

exactly 
well put
Had do to some digging to even find my official ones. I also put these in my personal page now.
After some fiddling, this could be my alt Top:
- God Forgives, we don’t
- Run Man, Run
- And God said to Cain (also my Staff Favorite)
- Django Kill, if you live…shoot! [would never rank it this high, see notes below]
- Texas Adios
- Forgotten Pistolero
and adding
- Tepepa
- Hannie Caulder
- The Grand Duel
- 10.000 Dollar Blood Money
- Blindman
- Navajo Joe
- Cut Throats 9
- Gatling Gun
- Bandidos
- California
- 100 Rifles
- Savaje Pampas
- Minnesota Clay
- Sledge
I have to say though: a) if done seriously, I would have to officially revise my official top 20 first (but not gonna do that now) and b) I left the ones after subtracting as per Phil’s instructions as is and in that order, and added the rest below. A better procedure would be to re-rank the alternative top 20, as what’s left after subtracting on place one might not be the top alternative spaghetti western out of the 20 titles this process yields otherwise.
Now, if enough folks persuade me that re-ranking is actually the way to go, then please consider the above just a first draft that I am transparent about with you - and I will rank them properly by tonight.
No need to re-rank anything as for the Alt Top 20 every entry counts as one point. We do this as most say that after the top 20 their next picks are all variable in order from one day to the next.
it still seems to work out fine.

OK fellas. All updated
You have a wise way to view the matter, I’m more of a calculation freak. But the current draft is actually my genuine alternative favorites, which just happened to be an almost even mix of established and not-so-established minor classics. Changes that may happen with the list might split that partition, which would annoy the statistics-loving, (not so) slightly diagnostic side of my brain.
But it was chiefly a tongue-in-cheek comment upon the dramatic movement of the list, so don’t worry, there will be no changes because the list is altered. I’m not that statistics-geeky. Not quite.
By the way, the poster for The Specialists looks remarkably reminiscent of the one for The Big Gundown.
Fixed.
I’m glad someone’s paying attention

Correct!
While all three are good films, there is no way I’d consider any of them a spaghetti at all.
I’m taking the liberty of not applying the strictest definition 
if it has some pasta in it, I take it
