In “Photos”, replace “the Merriam Webster Word of the Day for the day on which the photograph was taken” with:-

the Merriam Webster Word of the Day for the day on which that post was made

Add a paragraph to “Photos”:-

For a Photo to be “of” a Target, it must be an original photo of the physical object described by the Target, taken by a person present at the location of that object.

If any Hunters have claimed points for photos of Targets which would not be considered to be “of” those Targets under this amended rule, deduct those points.

To the second paragraph of “Targets”, add:-

A Hunter may not capture the same Target more than once within a 48 hour period.

Reproposing the fixes from Elbereth - the word should match the post rather than the photograph (otherwise anyone taking a photo could take a dozen and reuse them whenever they lost control of the target), and photos “of” something shouldn’t include photos of photos, or other trickery.

In fact, we should also disallow repeated capturing, otherwise two players who happen to get photos on the same day could keep reposting those photos. This would also stop any easy infinite loops of setting up targets for one another.
