If you're entering the formulae in B12:B16 rather than A12:A16 then you must adjust the MATCH range accordingly:
The function essentially takes the MODE of all the numbers that have not appeared in the most frequent list thus far... ie for B12 it looks at number in B11 (not a number), in B13 it discounts the number in B12 before calculating the MODE (hence 2nd most frequent) and so on and so forth... thus if your function references Column A (ie NOT the list) it will simply return the first MODE over and over.
