You got historical chops? The Timeguessr thread (spoiler alert)

46,154 To bad the game isn't Placeguessr.

1)9958 pts. Assumed it was on the beach near Tiujana. Lucky time guess but assumed it was early Trump
0 yrs off - 1.4 km m

2)9512 pts. Assumed it was Argentina so searched in the indicated radii for the other towns along Highway 36
3 yrs off - 4.2 km

3) 9300 pts. We have a May reservation at a hotel on the city square
4 yrs off - 20.8.m

4)9891 pts

40,044 - probably my best ever day on locations. Time killed me.

1)10000 pts
0 yrs off - 29.2 m
2)5994 pts
16 yrs off - 305.1 m
3)9600 pts
3 yrs off - 11.2 m
4)6953 pts
15 yrs off - 1.7 km
5)7497 pts
10 yrs off - 144.7 m

Similar for me, but the time almost always kills me.

3554 - 18 years, 1892 km - The color of the jersey made me think Mexico. Figured he was training for the Olympics in rudimentary conditions. Guessed just outside of Guadalajara. And, as usual, way off on time.

9473 - 3 years, 6.8 km - Couldn't find Espinillos on the map, but my rough estimate made me think it must be just outside Rio Cuarto, which was close.

9950 - 1 year, 23.1 m - The sign in the background said krakow-something or other. Satellite view of the old town revealed a plaza with the same design as in the picture.

6963 - 11 years, 1.1 km - Didn't recognize anything but it looked New York-ish, especially with the delicatessen. Didn't go early enough yesterday, but went too early on this one.

4993 - 28 years, 367.6 m - I walked across Alexander III Bridge last spring, don't remember seeing Pont Des Invalides, but figured it must be close to Hotel Des Invalides. I remember asking someone on the street what the Grand Palais was. Thought I was guessing too early but was way late.

44,570 Did well until the last one

1)
9609 pts
2 yrs off
22.8 km

2)
9943 pts
1 yrs off
356.1 m -- Initially looked at the Cordoba in Spain, but the cities and highway number weren't lining up, found the equivalent in Argentina pretty quickly.

3)
8848 pts
3 yrs off
252.2 km -- The name looked Polish, so I went with Warsaw.

4)
9580 pts
3 yrs off
985.2 m -- Mostly guessed at this one. The sky scrapper in the background suggested NY or a big city back East to me.

5)
6590 pts
10 yrs off
410.3 km -- Years are tough on these. I picked 10 years too late. Didn't recognize anything except the French writing. The flags had some kind of seal or something in the middle that made me consider it not being in France. The cross on the "church" kind of looked like the Swiss cross, so I went with Geneva.

Among my better scores - 41,988

9754 - 2 years, 1.6 km - random spot west of Glasgow, cars looked late 70s to early 80s, went a couple years late with 1982

9912 - 1 year, 1.1 km - Didn't recognize the Dutch, but noticed it was displaying English translations of the native language. Decided Amsterdam was as good a guess as any. Clothing led me to mid-1970s.

4998 - 37 years, 103.5 m - Felt confident it was Lisbon from the name of the bank, selected a spot near some government buildings. I guessed a bit post-WWII when I would have been better off selecting pre-WWI.

7454 - 8 years, 1.6 km - Considered pre-Castro Cuba because of Hotel Florida, but it looked European, so I went with Madrid. Saw the photocopy place and didn't think they had that technology that early.

9870 - 0 years, 7.5 km - Didn't know where Curb Your Enthusiasm was filmed, but knew Seinfeld was filmed in or near LA so selected near Universal Studios. Larry wasn't on camera, so I figured Seinfeld was more likely than CYE. Picked 1998 since that's about when Seinfeld ended and as a hedge in case it was CYE.
