Ok, so this is going to be oddly specific, but please bear with me. I am using Google Sheets so that my gf can use this doc with me. Here's what we are trying to do.
I am currently deployed overseas in the Middle East, and I want to watch movies with her as much as possible while I've over here. We made a list on google sheets with a list of movies that we WANT to watch. We made it into a fun experience between us by randomly selecting a movie on the list we want to watch. After watching the movie, we will place the date we watched it into a column labeled "Date Watched". Essentially we want to create a random generator but exclude movies that have a date in that column.
Right now, all I have is a random generator that I pulled off these sites that help for the most part. It doesn't exclude the dates, but since our list is short (for now) it's easy to just "reroll" a new title if a movie that we already watched appears.
=INDEX('Movie List'!B3:B21,RANDBETWEEN(1,COUNTA('Movie List'!B3:B21)),1)
To give a bit more detail, the movie titles are in Column B, and the Date Watched is in Column F. Both starting in Row 3.
Any and all help would be GREATLY appreciated.
