## Details

The stories are updated once per day at 12:00 UTC by fetching the top stories from the HN API. There is a 24 hours
moderation period where I choose which words are going to be unknown for the next round. In case I am unavailable during
this period, a random set of words will be selected. At 12:00 UTC the next day, the stories are published and available
for everyone to play.

If you want to play past rounds, you can use the following URL:

https://hnguessr.ggerganov.com/1/

Replace the "1" with the round that you would like to replay.
