Deciding as a group

The One-Veto Rule

Before you spin, each person gets one veto: they can take one option off the wheel. Then everyone agrees the spin is final. Nobody ends up with something they hate, and the debate ends quickly.

Allergies and diets

Only put options on the wheel that are safe for everyone eating. The wheel picks at random and doesn’t know about allergies.
