Article Count Anomaly

Permalink Browser Info Environment
I have run into a problem using the block. I am using the block on a website for a magazine. I want to use multiple instances of the block on the same page to help structure the content. The issue I'm having is that the Display count doesn't always work.

Here's an example: I am using four instances of the block on a page, in one area. All instances are sorted by "most recent first." The first instance I want to display 1 page, that has 2 true attribute filters. The second instance I want to display 2 pages, that 1 false and 1 true attribute filters. The third instance I want to display 1 page, that has the same 2 true attribute filters as instance 1, and I want the block to skip 1 article. The fourth instance I want to display the rest of the pages, that have the same 2 attribute filters as instance 2, and I want the block to skip 2 articles.

The issue I'm have is that Instance 3 displays 2 articles, even though I have it set for 1. I've tried removing my custom templates, clearing the cache, deleting and re-adding the blocks, but nothing has worked. I have searched the forums, and gone through my code, but have come up with nothing. I would greatly appreciate any help on this.

I have attached a JPG to help explain the layout I'm trying to achieve if that helps. You can also see this in action at new.wichitamag.com on the home page. The 3rd block in the main section, where the articles are displayed, the one that says "Rustle Up Some Grub", is supposed to only display 1 article, but it's displaying 2.
