What you can solve here
Roll a game event
Roll one to six standard six-sided dice, then check every face and the total at a glance.
Set teams or player order
Assign every player once, handle an uneven count openly, and copy the sides or sequence before play starts.
Choose the next option
Pick a challenge, map, role, starter, or other valid game option with or without a visible wheel.
Choose well
Choose the random event the rules actually call for
Use dice when the game specifies a distribution, a turn-order tool for a complete sequence, a picker for one outcome, and a team generator when every player must be assigned. A wheel is presentation; it should reveal a result rather than secretly define a different probability.
Custom weights, rerolls, removal after selection, and repeat rules all change the outcome space. Set them before play and keep them visible so the table knows what is being randomized.
Before you run
Three working principles
Keep the distribution visible
Weights, dice sides, repeats, and removal rules belong in the setup, not in a hidden result animation.
Resolve uneven counts before play
Decide whether a smaller team, bye, or rotating substitute is acceptable before generating sides or pairs.
Treat the tools as play aids
These tools do not provide gambling compliance, financial settlement, signed logs, or third-party verification.
