“We should do something this weekend” — and then the weekend evaporates into scrolling. This preset loads eighteen activities that work for couples, families, and friend groups, so a spin turns vague intention into an actual plan in seconds.
Step-by-step for the weekend
- Remove anything impossible this week (weather, budget, opening hours).
- Spin once and treat the result as the plan — commitment is the feature.
- Check the one practical detail the activity needs (booking, gear, transport).
- Invite whoever is coming and share the result so nobody re-debates it.
- After the weekend, remove what you did so next week’s pool stays fresh.
Why randomness beats the group chat
Group decisions stall because everyone is politely indifferent and nobody wants to own a bad pick. A random draw is blameless: the wheel uses the browser’s Web Crypto API (crypto.getRandomValues) with rejection sampling, so every activity has exactly the same chance. If the weekend flops, blame the wheel — and spin again next week.
Customizing the list
- Keep a “rainy day” sub-list and a “sunny day” sub-list for your climate.
- Add budget tags so expensive ideas only appear on pay weeks.
- Include one free option for the weeks money is tight.
- Let kids add two ideas each so family weekends feel chosen, not imposed.
Practical tips
- Spin on Thursday evening so Friday can hold the booking or prep.
- Pair the result with a movie genre picker when the wheel says movie night.
- Photograph the spin result — it becomes a fun log of weekends past.
- For picking dinner after the activity, spin the dinner picker.
