Name the firm

Not yet named

It must play on The Shepherd — the flock, the crook, the pastures, a pun, anything you can argue for. The clerk rules on it.

Take a post

One each, no doubling up. Tap to claim; tap again to stand down.

Let it see where you are

Not asked

Each photograph is stamped with where it was taken. It stops a firm standing on one corner and shooting the whole casebook, and it is the only way a repeat can be told from a fresh look.

Your position is attached to photographs you submit and nothing else. It is never shown on the evidence wall and nobody is tracked between them.
