44018. Nothing worse than 7 years off. Thought Serbia was Slovakia and Helsinki Berlin. Lucky guess on Jakarta as I was going to choose Manila, but my cursor hovered over Indonesia and I felt good about it.

Picked Stockholm instead of Helsinki.
Spent a long time on the Belgrade one. All the English threw me off. But the abundance of ACs, the Cyrillic, and the flag made me think former Yugoslavia. I picked Sarajevo.
I'm getting a lot more points on location than year lately.

It’s a fun game but not worth playing on a phone, IMO. 35k today. Really stunk on a couple. For example nailed the flatiron location (easy) but was off by 17 years.

Got my first perfect score on the Sydney Opera house, lucking out on the year. Had one other decent score and the rest were terrible.
I had heard of the Gene Rodenberry/Space shuttle unveiling recently. I think it was a question on an episode of Jeopardy that I had watched. But I biffed it on the location and date.

9955 - 0 yrs - 1.6km. Nice of them to give the year and town name in the picture
8639 - 3 yrs - 461.5km. Figured Europe by the biscotti next to the drink. Hedged my bets by picking just east of Munich. Pic seemed digital so went recent
8893 - 5 yrs - 372.9m. Norwegian flag made location pretty easy, but lack of hats for men made me think later than it was.
8900 - 5 yrs - 20.2m. Been there so makes the location pretty easy. Anything post 2010 is pretty much a wild card unless there is an identifiable event.
9388 - 0yrs - 112km. Remember year from my childhood fascination with space travel. Was kind of a coin flip between FL and CA.
