I got lost on the line "If the final answer is odd, the flip is TAILS." For example: Alice flips 1 for tails. Barb/Charlie/Danika flip 0. Why is the answer tails when most of the people flipped 0 for heads? Why use XOR instead of just taking the most common answer?
Never watched that show but might give it a try. Aside from personally wishing I had such a tool when growing up, one of my inspirations for this comes from Superman's parents. They send their son to earth with a hologram AI version of themselves recorded in the ships computer or crystals. Superman later in life used to chat with them and learn about his origins and true parents.
