Someone make a Leicester city version of this for us

[Jimothy]

Some of them if you spend a bit of time searching the photo you can get some clues and get really close or even bang on. Some are almost impossible to work out.

First go 2424, second:

 

Final Total: 3705

High Score: 3705

This is really fun. Whenever it pops to a picture of Times Square I try and deduce the year by the musicals/actors/films being advertised. 

[Unabomber]

First ever go and I got 0, 0, 28, 1000, 0  mixed bag 

[ajthefox]

3454 on my first go. Two of the 5 I was 1 year out.

[MrsJohnMurphy]

If you get a picture featuring American cars you need to add about 20 years to the date that you actually think it is

[StanSP]

1st and 2nd efforts were in the 1000s.

 

Third effort was this:

 

 

Partly thanks to a JFK photo and one from 2005 where I was a year out.

[Bordersfox]

What was annoying about this is I scored zero on one round, a very suspect black and white photo that was actually modern, not happy! Fun game though.

Not bad for a first attempt. Got tripped up by a more modern picture, would you believe.

And on the second...

 

Got rather lucky with some of the historical details on this one.

Found a good little game where you have to guess the year based on a single photo. 5 photos in a round and you get more points the closer you get to the actual year.

 

I'll post the link if anyone fancies it

[ozleicester]

[Nalis]

First go in the 1000s, second go was 3456

[StanSP]

Just got a 2850.

 

1000 of those because there was a car in shot with its numberplate visible

 

[StanSP]

Are they taking the piss

The best one is people in a shop queuing for their new copy of Windows 95

Not bad.

 

Google had Mancini as 2001 and the Banks, Shilton photo as 1967

Those were the two I had educated guesses on.
