Hello lovely folks,
are you feeling that Friday vibe already? I sure hope you are, so get ready to sink into your sofa, and let's have some fun together.
You probably have a lot of notable dates in your head, from those you were forced to memorize in school to the ones you remember out of curiosity - or just because the numbers look...
wacky!
Though, what's difficult is organizing the endless maze of dates and guessing how different events relate to each other, even when you
don't know the exact date. There are two ways to go about this: deduction or pure luck
(is this a metaphor for life? 😳).
You've probably read the title, so I won't bore you with further introductions. The game I'm talking about is:
It's a simple game that involves just that: sorting events along a timeline.
It pulls data from Wikidata and
Wikipedia and displays it randomly, meaning you're just as likely to get
Napoleon vs. Rick Astley as you are to get
Rebecca Black vs. @Carl. 🤪
As a result, some beginnings are better than others, but as more events populate the timeline,
they become closer together, making it increasingly harder to find the correct time period.
Just think about it: it would be much easier to determine which came first: the fall of the Berlin Wall or Gandhi's birth, than if you had to choose between the extinction of the dinosaurs and
@dsmonteiro's birth. 😁
So, go ahead and
give it a shot and share your best score with us.
After playing it for... —
oh, wow, it's been an hour already — I've gotten a modest streak of 11.
Can you beat it? 😏
