One interesting observation is how much less variation there has been in clothes for the past 20 years or so. Someone from 2005 could look completely undisguisable from someone today, by just wearing regular non-fashion forward 2005 clothes. Same goes for haircuts. Same can't really said about someone from 1955 and 1975, 1980 - 2000, etc. edit: Score 4695 Avg. Years Off 3.0

#163Cool idea, m8. I ended up just looking at clothing and fashion choices. Although black and white photos do tend to represent historical era (ie, holocaust, ww2)

It's an interesting phenomenon that you can observe with other things as well like tastes in music. I think it has something to do with people having access to about sixty years of people trying out just about everything they could think off. It's all been done before at this point and it's all available in new and fresh forms. So, it's no longer about collectively picking something that is genuinely new but individu…

Holy, I was off by 7 years and 427km on my first guess and I don't want to play anymore because I've surely peaked
I just got one that was off by 2 years and 24.2 meters , but it was kinda cheaty because it showed Barbara Bush on the South lawn of the White House.
I have to say I got almost perfect a Holy Week celebration in Sevilla in the 1920's (I'm Spanish, so only some hundred meters away but kinda wild guess for the year and only was two years off), and pointed Mexico instead of Guatemala for another, but nailed the year (1981) for a grand total of 902 out of 1000 points.
That was fun!
