One of the properties of the classical solution is that it works even if the Random god is actually an intelligent adversary trying to thwart your strategy. Anything that uses “more likely” language won’t be guaranteed to work in that case.
Maybe something like not allowing hypothetical question that you wouldn’t be allowed to actually ask would work to force your solution. (So you couldn’t ask “would god_X say ‘blah’ if asked ‘are you Random?’”, since you couldn’t actually ask god_X that question.)
Consider spoiler-tagging your solution.

Good point about the classical solution having an advantage. Also, how do you spoiler tag?

Thanks. I just looked into this and am reading about what “markdown” is.
Be aware that there is a different (default?) editor that has a different syntax. There’s a way to switch between them in your account settings.
