    Yeah. I got the same OTF one as before too. Odd.

      Using the OTF code my final photo is a class of schoolgirls with a couple of teachers. And unless that’s Hitler in the close foreground of the first photo then I didn’t get him. Maybe it is.

        Ooh, just got 4082 in a random game! One photo had a Vauxhall Cavalier in it.

          Is that last photo a black and white one which has gone kind of a brownish red with age? With homemade displays about the Vikings and Mary Queen of Scots etc. on the back wall? Same set as me if so. The plot thickens

            Yep. So is Hitler at front left in the first photo? Otherwise I’ve got no clue.

              I think they are still tweaking how this works - it now shows "party" rather than "group" on the homepage

              Using Chrome I have the option to generate (or insert) a code - on IE it just takes me to photos I saw yesterday with no option to start afresh. I assume though that clearing browsing history/cache would fix that but don't want to do that every day

              The first picture I see is a cinema showing "Bringing up Baby" (so a nice easy 1000 points bur downhill from there)

                Thanks Sid. A terrible 2042.

                    I think “Daily” may be a Wordle style thing - everyone gets the same five. I just got my best score on that one, 4200-odd.

                      I got 3559 on that (assuming it's the same). It felt a bit like I needed to be a car obsessive to get a good score

                        Sounds like the one. Lots of cars in the last two.

                          Ooh I have the same! Exciting. 3280 on this one and 4248 (!! new PB) on the motor-heavy daily one

                            I'm not sure how the points system works.

                              2612 on colchestersid's. 2151 on the daily one (even more embarrassingly I only got 28 points on the last photo, which had already come up yesterday for me). Clearly I'm awful at these.

                                The closer you get the more points you score

                                I've noted these scores - just a few missing but gives you an idea

                                So if you guess 1940 and the answer is 1949 you score 396 points
                                Difference +/- Points
                                0 1000

                                  Ta. I got the general gist but couldn't see how the sliding scale actually panned out.

                                    I don’t know what device you’re on Sporting but on my iPad I can just keep my finger on the slider from its 1960 start, move between 1900 and 2021 (2022?) and click Submit.

                                    Ooh I have a new Daily…3337, but I got a blank screen on Photo 3 and an extremely lucky random click got me close. Struck out on another photo though.
