Random picker wheel for names and choices

Spin the Wheel is a random name picker and decision wheel for giveaways, classrooms, team assignments, dinner ideas, chores, games, and quick tie-breakers. It is useful when a visible, suspenseful selection feels better than a plain random number or list shuffle.

How the wheel picks a winner

The wheel reads each non-empty line as an entry and gives each line one segment. Duplicate entries create duplicate segments, so they increase the chance of that option being selected. Spins use browser cryptographic randomness to choose the landing angle, then the final wheel rotation determines the selected segment.

Can I remove the winner after a spin?
