Introduces randomness
In the "Math" section, select "Randomly choose from 0 to 100." Change the values to a time range that works for you (e.g., 1,000 to 10,000) and set it to the first pause value.

Decide the winner
Under “Input,” select “when A is pressed.” Inside, add the “If...then” conditional from the “Logic” section and add the variable as a condition.
5
Replicate the code
for button B

Assemble the image blocks
In the "Basic" section, select the blocks. You can change the icon on the screen to a sound to make it more accessible.

Create a variable
In "Variables," create a new variable. Below the loop you created, add "Set Variable" and set the "Logic" section to "true."

Within this conditional, you can put whatever you want to identify the winner, but at the end you should always put "Set Variable" and set the value to "False."
