Nested List Not Following Selection Rules

[Noam Schneck]

Hi All,

I have a task in which a slide object is used to present four words 
(Positive1, Positive2, Negative1, Negative2).  Each word is selected 
randomly from a list that contains 85 words in total.  This list "Wordlist" 
is nested into the master list.  I am trying to set the wordlist so that no 
words will repeat within a block (24 runs) but that they can repeat across 
blocks.  I set the parameters of the wordlist to random selection with 
replacement after reset.  I set the reset at 24 samples.  

HOWEVER....E-prime seems to have a different plan.  When I run a test on 
the task I find that the program goes through the first 3 blocks (72 
samples) without ever repeating a single word and than in the fourth block 
it begins repeating words within the block.  I cannot figure out why this 
is happening and I have attached the experiment file. Please help!

Noam
