      That is really fun. First try my score was 36,700.

        Just got 45,646.

        One was Trump throwing out the first pitch at Fenway. I zoomed in as far as I could, and was 2 meters off. But way off on the time; thought it was during his presidency but nope, 2009.

        Working through my ethical dilemma of if I recognize a distinct place if I can google where exactly it is in a country, state, etc. As of now, I forbear.

          Ok, much better on my laptop than the phone. 42246, but I did cheat by looking a few things up on the Google.

              I'm just trying to feel it out and learn the game. Next game was a practice, and I didn't Google (36,000+). I do really well with location, but more often whiff on the date. For example, I swore the photo of the Kremlin was 1975, but it was actually 1991. I think they're probably 20 years behind in some aspects.

                No worries. We all know you google on wordle too.

                    TimeGuessr - the game that tests both your geography and history knowledge. Guess where and when historic photos were taken.


                    Sometimes you get super lucky with a newspaper in the the frame with an important date in history. Other times you're hunting for license plates. My high score is 43519.
                    This is fun. Go make another thread so we don't run into spoilers. 40,889 on my third game. No, I haven't used Google since the first game.

                      Yeah, I need to work on the year. On the fourth round, I was practically spot on 3/5 locations because they were in London, but that's only half the available points.

                            Eh, are we going to be playing this for any length of time? Not sure if this game has durability.

                            I just saw that there's a daily game. I haven't been playing that. I've just been clicking on 'PLAY'. If everyone else is doing the daily, I got 37,623

                              Most embarrassing guess today was getting Piazza San Marco spot on, 20 meters away for 5000 points, then whiffing on the year by 21 years, for 0.
