Special Thanks
This puzzle was set for the weekly Scojo discord/twitch prompt.
I couldn't find any using the search, but I suspect the puzzle name must've been used before (or at least very similar)

It's a very fun concept. And while it seems like you are going to be asking the same question a bunch of times, the exact form of that question and what the answer is keeps changing in surprising ways. Really enjoyed!
