Default How-to Prevent Value Duplication

I have 32 events that need to be ranked in order of preference.

How can I format 32 cells (all contained in a single column) so that each
number 1-32 can only be used once, thereby ranking the events from 1 to 32?

Also, I was hoping to put a frozen row at the top of the sheet listing which
numbers from 1-32 are still available, meaning they have not yet been input
in one of the 32 cells. How could I accomplish this?

Thanks for the help!
