Common questions

Do I need to enter the number of losing slots?

No. The remaining slots are assigned automatically. The winner count can range from zero to the participant count.

Can editing a rung change the result?

Yes. Changing a path can change a participant's outcome. Editing clears the revealed state so you can trace paths again.
