Ooh, this is another super fun question! 🎉 I love these puzzle forms.

@khantaung you have the right idea but the tricky thing is considering all of the previously-selected choices no matter how many repeats there are.

Take a look at the form [here](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1IC_egzIB63W4-VwQXNZG87BPHcYnkLBAMOpPeELacXA/edit#gid=0) for a solution that I believe should work for any number of choices and any number of repeats.
