I hadn't
really considered that.
If you're using it in a verse, such as
This is a line
This is another line
This is a third line
This is a line
Where the first a fourth are the same, then yes, it will still count.
If you want to use it like this however
This is a line
This is a line
This is another line
This is another line
I'd recommend you writing it like this
This is a line (x2)
This is another line (x2)
I can't force you to write things out a certain way, but I'd
strongly recommend leaving little notes for repeated sections rather than writing them out again, even if it's not what you usually do. That's what the challenges are supposed to do, put you out of your comfort zone and test your abilities to adapt.
