// Spin a browser-based random wheel for names, choices, teams, and quick decisions
Use this random wheel for classroom name calls, giveaway winner picks, meeting icebreakers. Use it when the reveal matters: live raffles, rotating chores, classroom cold calls, or a meeting where people want to see the decision happen. Results are generated in the browser, so pasted input stays on the page and can be copied without a server round trip.

// ABOUT THE RANDOM WHEEL
How It Works:
Wheel picks are just list sampling with a visual reveal. The input is trimmed line by line, empty rows are ignored, and a seeded run gives the same winner again for audits or classroom repeats.
Example:
this generator + count=1 + optional seed -> copy-ready output
Common Use Cases:
- >Classroom name calls
- >Giveaway winner picks

- >Task assignment
// PRACTICAL GUIDE
Use it when the reveal matters: live raffles, rotating chores, classroom cold calls, or a meeting where people want to see the decision happen.
For a serious draw, paste the final entry list, publish the seed before spinning, and keep the output text as the record. For casual sessions, leave the seed empty and spin again whenever you need a fresh result.
Before You Use It:

>> frequently asked questions
Q: Is this generator private?
A: Yes. Generation runs client-side after the page loads. Pasted input, seeds, and wheel output are not submitted by this tool.
Q: How does seeded mode help with classroom name calls?
A: A seed makes the same settings return the same sequence again. That helps when you need to replay classroom name calls, compare results, or keep a demo fixture stable.
Q: What should I check before using generated wheel output?
A: Paste one entry per line before the draw. Use a seed when the result needs to be reproducible. Review the output in context before putting it into a public page, imported dataset, or shared plan.
Q: What is the main limit for giveaway winner picks?
A: Each visible line receives one chance. If the same name appears twice, it receives two chances. Use the output as prompts, placeholders, examples, or test fixtures, and switch to a specialized source when the work is regulated, security-critical, or legally sensitive.
