Chronophoto - Guess the year that each photo was taken in

Terminal_Boy said:
Thanks for finding another type of quiz that I’m rubbish at. I even managed to get the one that had the date written in it wrong.

How did people get near the date of Japanese street scenes? I guessed 10-15 years too early on all of them…

Advertising, brands, car models, clothing style. But somethimes it can be almost impossible.
 
Find the quality of the camera/photo can really throw you off, particularly if there is not much to go on.

I usually get most of them pretty close, but every now and then it throws in a really difficult one and I'll end up way off.

Got a new high score at 3720 with one exact guess right and one just a 2 years out, but a badly wrong 1st pic dropped me below what should have been 4k+ as it looked like it was from around the Titanic era (image of people on a cruise ship) so guessed 1912 and it was 1900 -

What mode are you guys playing - daily, play or party?

I just tried this for the first time (daily) and scored 1575. A couple of photos were 5 years out, but I was miles out on the other 3 :D

I've been doing the daily's, managed 2994 today but really should have done better on the 4th. Sounds like some others are just doing the play option a few times though so can't compare with all the scores.
 
My memory is so bad, I'm barely improving my daily score on a second attempt on a different device, later in the day!:cry:
 
Broke 4K eventually, dropped another 300-400 points with a poor guess so could have been even higher!

Lol I get 3.5 to 4k nearly every time now.
Guess I'm just keen eyes little history knowledge
 
Did this today for the first time, got two of them bang on. 3952 points in total but disappointed to be six years out on the final one, I should have know that. The first one, I was one year out but that's because I slipped on the mouse.
 
Not played in over a week, but thread update today prompted me to have a go...

Two photo years bang on the money and a new pb of ~3750! :eek:
 
First go at this in a week or so, had a mare on the first three daily photos, rescued things by decent scores in last two pics for 2180... I'm getting better at recognising some clothing designs from certain decades, slowly! :cry:
 
Still having a go at this from time to time, massively out on two of today's "daily" five to score two big fat zeros, but 2348 from the other three! :cry:
