I have 2 questions. Question 1 is a multiple choice drop down with 10 options. When a participant selects one of the 15 options, they then move to the next page and answer question 2. I have the loop and merge set up for question 2, based on question 1, with piped text coming from their response. Then after question 2 is answered, I need the loop to come back to question 1 and include only the 14 options removing the first option they selected in the first iteration of question 1. Then as the loop and merge continues for the second iteration, it will have 13 response options, where both answers for the loop 1 and loop 2 are removed.

I have tried to execute this with question 1, page break, question 2. As well as question 1 in block 1 and question 2 in block 2. I seem to have gotten further with the second method, with qeustion 2 in block 2, as it will loop properly, but all response options for question 1 are always there.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I’m trying to do this with loop and merge so that I don’t have to create extensively long display logic for questions, as participants will likely complete all 15 loops. I know if i did this with 15 questions and added display logic, it would get quite long by the 15th option.
