A Fair Chore Wheel
That Actually Remembers
Every household has one person who "forgets" it's their turn. This chore wheel fixes that — it tracks who's done what, and the person who's done the least always has the best odds.
Why a normal spinner wheel doesn't work for chores
Most online spinner wheels give everyone the exact same odds on every single spin. That sounds fair, but it isn't — pure randomness means the same unlucky person can get picked for dish duty four weeks running, purely by chance, while a roommate who's genuinely done nothing skates by. Nobody believes that's fair, and it starts arguments that have nothing to do with the actual chores.
Wheel of Blame solves this by tracking a running score for every person. Each time someone is picked and the result gets confirmed, their score goes up and their slice of the wheel shrinks. The math is simple: your slice size is 1 ÷ your blame points. Someone who's done four chores has a quarter of the slice of someone who's done one — so the wheel actively corrects itself instead of relying on luck.
How to set up a chore wheel for your house in under a minute
- Open the wheel and clear the demo names using the ✕ button next to each one.
- Add every roommate using the "Add a name" box — press Enter or click Add after each one.
- Spin once per chore that needs doing that day — dishes, trash, vacuuming, whatever's on the list.
- Confirm the result in the popup so that person's blame score updates and their slice shrinks for next time.
- Share the link using the Share button in the header — anyone who opens it sees the exact same roster and history, so there's no dispute about who's "really" ahead.
