## Definitions

### `at.turtleme.game.castReef`

**Type**: `procedure`

Anchor over a fresh reef. The board is made empty and the shoal goes down on the first sweep, clear of it, so the patch a round opens with is never the one that ends it. Where the shoal lies is never sent: the whole reason this is settled here is that a board laid out in the page is a board whose shoal is sitting in memory. Anchoring over a board that is still being played ends it first and pays its rest. Requires an atproto service auth token addressed to did:web:turtleme.at#turtle_game and naming this method, so a token issued for one call cannot be spent on another.

#### Input

**Encoding**: `application/json`

| Property | Type | Required | Description |
|----------|------|----------|-------------|
| `across` | `integer` | No | How many patches across the board is. Which reef to play is the player's preference; an unknown size falls back to the middle one. |

#### Output

**Encoding**: `application/json`
