HI all,

I'm currently working on a Stroop test and I am having an issue with the program selecting words from a list. My goal is for the program to select words from a general list and not have that word be shown again in a different color. E.g. "exist" is shown in green, and is taken out of the general list and never shown in red or blue. I've tried using a counter, but it only shows the first words of the lists in different colors. I've attached part of the code below.

Thank you!
