Who or what determines the Alpha Timeline? If Paradox Space determines it, then why are there failed sessions unless those are apart of Paradox Space's "plan"?

The Alpha timeline is the once that leads to the birth of a new universe.  Doomed timelines are supposed to happen, occasionally doomed timelines require some sort of time travel to go back and change the timeline, in theses instances if the doomed timeline didn’t happen then the Alpha timeline wouldn’t be able to happen either.

How is Vriska able to use aradia's time traveling boxes? I thought Gamzee could use them because he had the jokerkind abstratus. (I forget what Vriska has)

Time travelling devices are not weapons and therefore do not require a specibus to use them.  And Vriska has dicekind.

oh, is needlekind weapon needed for scratch?

Yes, the scratch construct has to be scratched (hehe) with the Quills of Echidna in order for it to activate.

What does/do you think happens to all the kids of failed SBURB sessions?

they die. simple as that.  Or the god tier ones live forever alone given that they cannot die of age or illness.

About Jake and Dirk dating, do we ever see one asking the other out? Or is the whole relationship set during the 5 months the alpha kids are playing that we don't get to see?

It’s all set in the 5 months, we don’t see anything but the end of it.

Did jake wake up her dream self before the game, if so how?

Jake’s dreamself died before he could wake up

Do we know anything about the pre-scratch ancestors, that is Karkat's generation in the beforus universe?

The only one we know about if Beforan Feferi.  She was obviously the Empress and a very kind one at that.

Does every Space Player has to have "Frogs" in their planet name.

If they’re in a successful session, yes

If you died say on your planet while your dreamself was on your sacrificial slab, would you ascend? Because the wounds you take also affect your dream self

I want to say yes, but I’m not sure.
