Interesting idea, the first thing that jumped out at me was that you might want to consider making a page that US users redirect to.
In your sample, you have the date listed as 31-7-1965. This is not how Americans display dates. Americans use 7-31-1965.
I generalized only saying American's use 7-31-1965. That may be a standard date convention for all of non-Europe, but I have no idea. Don't want the important message to get lost in any confusion.
- jonp 16y agoThanks for your comment. I'm allowing for different date formats (dd-mm-yyyy, mm-dd-yyyy, yyyy-mm-dd) when making the puzzles. But it hadn't occurred to me that seeing a non-American date on the home page could be off-putting to Americans. I guess I could try to recognize where people are from and show a location-specific example. Or maybe it's best to pick an ambiguous date ie one that works under both conventions. eg 12-5-1965 should do it. Thanks again.

- albahk 16y agoOff-topic - In China, they use the following format 1965-07-31 which to me as a geek makes a lot more sense. From largest unit to smallest. It also conveniently auto-sorts in chronological order if you name files like this.
