Can this modified 'Many' Time Pad be made 'stronger' by using an extrememly long key?



Starting with a one time pad say you want to encrypt some small strings like the words in this sentence but you want to reuse the same OTP key for each string so that when you encounter the same word the ciphered text comes out the same.


But say you modify the OTP algorithm in some way, say by jumping around on an extremely long key according to some special calculation that places you on different positions along the key (for the same word you end up at the same position each time) So different words end up at different positions.


Would making the key very long and alternating positions along its entire length make any difference in decrypting the resulting message?
