Lottery draw

How to use it

1. Pick “Names” and paste one entry per line, or switch to “Ticket numbers” and set the first and last number. Blank lines in a name list are skipped.
2. Press “Draw winner” once per winner. The chosen entry is shown big and leaves the pool, so it cannot win twice in the same round.
3. “Undo” puts the last winner back. “Clear” resets the entries, the range, the mode and all winners. Copy or download the winner list for a record.

Example

Mode: Names
Entries:
Alice
Bob
Carol
Dave
Erin

#1 Carol
#2 Alice
#3 Dave

The result is random, so the names and the order will differ. Check the shape: each draw adds one winner, winners do not repeat, and every winner came from your list. The draw history stays on this page only.

Scope, limits and common questions

• Drawing happens locally in your browser with crypto.getRandomValues — not a physical “true random” source. Nothing is uploaded, stored or put in the URL; refreshing clears everything.
• One draw removes one entry. Changing the name list, the number range or the mode resets the draw, because winners must come from the current pool.
• Names are kept exactly as typed (leading and trailing spaces included); a line that is only spaces is treated as blank and skipped. Writing the same name twice means two separate tickets.
• Ticket numbers are whole numbers, inclusive, written with Latin digits and no leading zeros. At most 100,000 numbers per range, and the range has to be valid before you can draw.
• The history renders the latest 200 winners; copy and download include the full list. Very large name lists (over 200,000 characters) still work, but the first draw may take a moment.
• No wheel animation, weighted tickets, prize tiers, saved lists or shareable links with your data. To draw several winners at once from a list, use the random picker.
