FAQ
Is the shuffle cryptographically secure?
It uses browser randomness suitable for casual use, not certified lottery systems.
Where does shuffling run?
In your browser. Lists are not uploaded to BeeForge for randomization.
What if Number to select is empty?
The full list is shuffled and returned.
Can I weight some items?
Not in this UI. Duplicate entries intentionally if you need a crude weight, or use a weighted tool.
Does download include the original order?
Download contains the randomized results area, not a side-by-side original.
