call_foul

Call a foul when words, not the picture, would do the telling: writing made for the game (a note, letter tiles), a screen held up to show something, a hint the user types about the word, or your guess is written in the photo. Writing that's already in the world (a label, a logo, a sign) is not a foul unless your guess is written in it. The photo doesn't count and no shot is used. In Get Out & Go, pass the star if you know it. In a friends challenge, pass its challenge code.

Argument	Type	Description
mode	string	Which star game this photo is for, when the user has both Get Out & Go and a course in play: "go" or "courses". Leave it out to use the one they played last.
star	integer	Get Out & Go only: which of the five words this is for, 1 to 5 stars. The user says it, or the card sends "Next photo's for the ★★★ word."
