How Random Pickers Work (And Why They Are Fair)
A plain-English explanation of how random pickers work: pseudo-random number generation, what makes results fair, and why a good picker earns your trust.
Random pickers are fair when every option has an equal chance and the process is transparent.

A random picker is fair if every item has the same probability. Good tools avoid hidden weighting or repeated bias.
