How to use the random wheel
Enter one name or choice per line, edit the list, then select Spin the wheel. The numbered sectors match the list below the wheel, and the winner also appears as text. Spin again with the same list, or change it for another round.
It can pick a presentation order, a question for an exercise, or a low-stakes activity. If you want to draw without replacement, remove the previous winner's line yourself before spinning again.
How entries are counted
Blank lines are skipped and spaces at either end of a line are removed. Identical lines after trimming each occupy a separate sector, increasing that text's chance of winning. Capitalisation is treated as different. Use 2–24 non-empty entries, up to 80 characters each and 4,000 characters in the input overall. Some combined emoji count as more than one character.
Randomness and limits
The browser's cryptographic random source selects a valid entry number. The animation shows that selection; it does not make the draw. With unique entries, each has the same chance on a single spin. This tool cannot prove that a process was fair or independently auditable: the list can be changed and no verifiable draw record is kept. Use an agreed, auditable process for high-stakes decisions.
Entries and results stay in this browser tab. The tool does not save or send them to Spirelight. Reloading or closing the tab clears them.
