Prevent (minimise) same word occurrence #120

Open Fourhofthea opened 2 years ago

Fourhofthea commented 2 years ago

Hi, would it be possible to prevent a word from recurring (or extending the period over which it could re-appear)? I've played 347 times between 1 January and 16 February and have documented 25 occurrences where the same word has repeated. In addition, the word "PULPY" has cropped up three times in this period. Appreciate that there is a relatively small, finite list of word to choose from, but the number of instances where a word re-occurs, in a short space of time, seems to be too high. Thanks.

Thanks for the feedback, it should be possible to reduce recurrence. I'll look into it!
