Wheel of Names FAQ
How is the winner chosen?
The wheel lands at a random angle computed before the animation, and whichever segment finishes under the top pointer is the winner โ no peeking, no bias toward position.
Can I remove a winner and spin again?
Yes โ delete their line from the entries box and the wheel redraws instantly with the remaining segments.
How many entries fit on the wheel?
There is no hard cap, but beyond a few dozen segments the labels truncate to 18 characters for readability, so keep entry names short for large lists.
