Questions can be about past, present and future.
Remember, only ask questions that are answered with "yes" or "no".
In round 1, you ask questions.

Nothing too offensive please, or tarot could get angry at us.
In round 2, you say if you think tarot answered questions correctly and if it did, I win, and if not, you win.

How did you get your tarot cards
"just by running it multiple times through multiple different divination methods?"
You can do that too.
There are multiple tarot spreads, and its possible to do 5 spreads on a question to see how many say yes and how many say no.
"How do you determine the certainty %"
I do it by number of cards saying yes/no.
I draw 5 cards. If 3 out of 5 say yes, its 60% yes because 3 out of 5 is like 6 out of 10, which is 60%.
People often doubt tarot, but pro tarot is right about 70% of the time, so its like science.
Tarot is correct about 50% of the time on questions that have 50% chance to be "yes" and 50% chance to be "no".
Now, I could use a more advanced tarot which relies on assumption that over 70% of questions have "yes" as correct answer, as people do tend to ask if something will happen when it most likely will.
