added a backup feature to whichyear. open the stats modal and click save backup to save your progress to a file. if you ever clear your cache or switch devices, you can restore your progress from the file!

I'm working to make whichyear run faster, but this might cause some bugs. if you come across anything broken please let me know! 🫶

I noticed a bump in the graph around there, was wondering what happened lol

totally intentional...🤦‍♂️

Hallo, in diesem Spiel ist tatsächlich ein Fehler aufgetreten. Das zweite Foto war zunächst auf das falsche Jahr eingestellt. Ich habe das Problem inzwischen behoben. Wenn du die Seite erneut besuchst, wird dein Punktestand aktualisiert und entspricht dem richtigen Jahr. Ich bitte um Entschuldigung!

Bonjour, merci d'avoir joué ! Vous avez tout à fait raison. J'ai corrigé l'année. Lors de votre prochaine visite sur le site, votre score sera mis à jour pour refléter la précision. Toutes mes excuses.

Glad you're enjoying it! Thanks for playing🙂

Thank you! I like hearing thoughts about it, it helps me make it better.

According to The Guardian and National Geographic, the photo is of an actual nightclub. The photographer is excellent.

Ah that makes sense. I hadn't thought of it that way.

The first one is not from a filmset, it was taken by Volkmar K Wentzel for National Geographic. The second photo was taken by George N. Barnard, an American Civil War Army photographer. Slavery was abolished in 1865 in the United States, and the main clue was a storefront for slave auctions.

You can now see the guess distribution for each round on whichyr.com! Check out the chart for a Korean War photo from last Friday's challenge that was widely mistaken for WWII or Vietnam

Thanks for playing!!
