From a shortlist to a clear next step

A little preparation makes a random choice much more practical.

  1. 1

    Replace the sample players with one entry per participant.

  2. 2

    Remove duplicate names so everyone has one equal chance.

  3. 3

    Turn on No repeat picks, then spin for each player in turn. The clear wheel and result let everyone follow along.

Pro tip for this wheel

Use Pick last entry to record the final player. Restart round restores everyone without retyping the list. Editing the list starts a fresh round.
