I think there is an algorithm behind the OLCI system that determines the seats that can be selected by you. It is probably dependent on your QFF status, fare class, and possibly other factors (basically, the lower your status and fare class, the less choice of seats you have and these are usually towards the back of the bus).
Having said that however, more seats may open up closer to departure so just check back every now and then before you leave for the airport (and even when you are at the airport) to see if you can get a seat further up the front than what is offered by OLCI.
