Spin for a number from 1 to 40

Forty slices, each with a 2.5% chance. Forty is where a hat full of paper slips starts to get messy, and a wheel starts to make more sense.

Bigger classes and groups

  • Large class: number a big class list or a combined class and spin for who answers.
  • Club raffle: forty members, forty tickets. Spin for the door prize.
  • Seating chart: spin a seat number for each guest at an event.
  • Stations: spin to send each person to one of your activity stations.

Quiz and game nights

  • Question bank: number forty trivia questions and spin for the next one. Remove each one after it’s asked.
  • Board spaces: many property-trading board games have forty spaces around the board. Spin for a space to start from, or for a house-rule bonus square.
  • Forfeit list: forty silly forfeits for a party, numbered and ready.

Tip: Running a quiz? Turn on Remove from wheel before the first spin, so a question never comes up twice in the same night.

Forty days

Some people do forty-day challenges, like forty days of walking, saving or writing. Number your tasks and spin for today’s.

Fair every spin

The wheel picks the number with your browser’s cryptographic random number generator before the spin, and every slice is the same size. For fifty entries, try 1 to 50.
