You get 5 photos per round. I'm abysmal at this, usually at least a decade out.

3102 for the first try.

Crosby Nick · « **Reply #6 on:** February 13, 2023, 11:39:39 pm »

3604 for me. Blew it on the last one, 10 years out.

2,124 good game

Cars really throwing me though, I thought I knew my car shapes and brands but I'm decades out on the car photos

Bloody hell, the only one I got that close on there was a Cher Album on a billboard so I googled her discography

3727 on first attempt. Got two bang on (one was pretty lucky, other was obvious). 1 way off and 2 within a few years.

All B&W so able cut out most of the century.

Got a few quite close but there was a parade that looked like the sixties, maaaaan

2018!!

I am shamefully fooled by filters.

4120 on my second go, helped by 3 fairly obvious WW1 and WW2 photos

Nobby Reserve · « **Reply #13 on:** February 14, 2023, 10:04:56 am »

3780 first go

I went:

-1
+14
+3
-1
0

Tip (which I only discovered after I'd played the first game

) is that you can zoom in if you holder the cursor over the pic and scroll the wheel

2 that were bang on, 2 that were 1 year out and the last one I was in the right ballpark, 3 years out maybe.

That was my 3rd go, as I don't think I'll better it I'd like to announce my retirement from Chronophoto as RAWK's current champion.

2349, one picture I thought was Marlon Brando on a film set but it was from 1902

Last one destroyed me - 0 points!
Got 1 bang on and another 2 years out

Nitramdorf · « **Reply #20 on:** February 14, 2023, 01:34:39 pm »

Just got 4053 but only because it had a photo of Nirvana as the last one.

I seem to struggle a bit on the 50s. The cars throw me a bit from that decade.

Nobby Reserve · « **Reply #21 on:** February 14, 2023, 01:47:17 pm »

I had 3550 after 4 goes... then bollocksed it up with 113 on the last.

Nobby Reserve · « **Reply #22 on:** February 14, 2023, 01:48:04 pm »

Knowing the country helps. Some countries modernised well before others.

Red_Mist · « **Reply #23 on:** February 15, 2023, 07:20:03 am »

3793 helped by a lucky spot on guess on the last pic.

Qston · « **Reply #24 on:** February 15, 2023, 08:49:06 am »

Addicted to this now yer bastard. Best score is 4481

Baseball uniforms is a hard one, they all look about 1825

If it's any consolation, I remain terrible at this game.

kavah · « **Reply #27 on:** February 16, 2023, 02:46:06 am »

I'm retiring now after my best ever score - lots of easier ones like WW2 Germans, an early Robin Reliant (73), late 60s hippies and a cinema with all the movie posters up

Nobby Reserve · « **Reply #28 on:** February 16, 2023, 01:52:25 pm »

I've just hit 4549

In terms of years out, I went:

+1
-3
+1
+1
=

I don't think I'll ever better that (or get easier pictures!)

Keep telling myself I’ll quit when I get 4,000 and twice have had 3,900 and something. Grrr.

Need a couple of spot on ones and no low scores to have a chance though.

Anything with just old fashioned cars and no people is killing me.

Nitramdorf · « **Reply #32 on:** February 16, 2023, 03:26:00 pm »

Blimey, just had a train in the snow and said 1967 and it was 1908

Also keep getting the same picture, 3 times now, a load of oiled up Japanese lads in a vehicle. Its 1950.

Wabaloolah · « **Reply #33 on:** February 16, 2023, 04:31:27 pm »

3965, had 4 one year out but then out by 10 on the last one!

Wabaloolah · « **Reply #34 on:** February 16, 2023, 05:05:30 pm »

4625, think I'll struggle to beat that!

Thanks to tubby for sharing this, not been the most productive couple of hours in work! 😂

3102 for the first try.

I only got 1290 for my 2nd go, but I did get a perfect guess, 1000 points in it

stara · « **Reply #36 on:** February 16, 2023, 08:14:13 pm »

4258. very lucky.

Crosby Nick · « **Reply #37 on:** February 16, 2023, 08:24:44 pm »

4150!

1000 from the first one as it was a picture of kids with a Titanic Disaster Fund sign. Next three were all within a couple of years of each other. Had 3657 after 4 and got a random crowd at a festival shit with barely any clues apart from one person holding a digital camera. In 2013 the big goon.

John C · « **Reply #38 on:** February 16, 2023, 08:52:39 pm »

Fucking hell I've had a few 1000 points but can't get over my first round total. ffs!
