Question 1

Is this name picker fair?

Accepted Answer

Yes, it's completely fair. We use a cryptographically secure random number generator (crypto.getRandomValues) to ensure all participants have an equal chance of winning. The animation is purely visual and does not affect the randomness of the selection.

Question 2

What events can I use this for?

Accepted Answer

This tool is perfect for giveaways, prize drawings at parties, meeting facilitator selection, classroom duty assignments, choosing dinner hosts, live stream viewer giveaways, community events, and any scenario where you need to randomly select people fairly.

Question 3

Can the same person win multiple times?

Accepted Answer

Yes, by enabling 'Allow same person to win multiple times' setting, the same participant can win multiple prizes. This is ideal for small groups or events with multiple prizes. When disabled, winners are excluded from subsequent draws in the same session.

Question 4

Can I change the animation speed?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can choose from three speeds: Fast, Normal, or Slow. The fast setting reveals results in seconds, while the slow setting creates a slot machine-like suspenseful experience. Adjust it to match the atmosphere of your event.
