I would like to use the party size symbol in a form for registration, but am not seeing a formula that would count the responses?

    This will require additional columns. There are a number of ways to do this. This was the fastest way I could think of. You Will need to create 2 columns and perform a vlookup. See attachment.

     

    Also I would lock the additional columns, so they are not overwritten.
