Yes or no wheel
No spins yet.
This wheel has two equal segments and lands on each half the time. The answer is drawn from the browser’s cryptographic randomness before the animation starts, and the wheel is then turned to land on it, so the spin is presentation and nothing about the motion influences the outcome.
How to use it
The useful thing about a coin or a wheel is not the answer but your reaction to it. If the wheel says no and you feel relieved, you already knew. This is the version of that trick with a large animation and a history of what it has told you before.
What people use it for
- Catching your own reaction to the answer before you accept it
- Ending a two-way argument in front of the people having it
- Clearing a small decision that has taken more thought than it is worth
- Reading back what it said on the last few spins of the session
Questions
Yes. Two segments, one crypto-random draw between them, no weighting anywhere.
No. The winner is chosen before the wheel moves, and the animation is calculated to land on it.
Only in this tab, and only until you leave. Nothing about the spins is sent anywhere.
Use the spin-the-wheel version, which takes any list of entries.
