NOC Why is there a gun in my popcorn? GAME OVER SCUM WIN

Grab some specific grain-based snacks and take a seat, because it's time for Why is there a gun in my popcorn?

Only two roles in the game: VT or Goon. Both wincons are to eliminate the opposing faction.

There are no votes and no lynches in this game. Kills are made via a special transferable dayvig mechanic.
Players can make pseudovotes, though, to mark and track their scumreads.
During confirmation phase, the scumteam privately decides which Townie is the first in the game to receive The Gun.
Whoever has the gun is known as The Gunbearer.
At the start of any cycle, Mod announces who The Gunbearer is (and if they are a new Gunbearer, confirms them as Town).
The Gunbearer has 72 hours to decide on one living player to shoot, with other players providing input on/trying to influence the choice of target.

If The Gunbearer hits scum, the scum player dies and The Gunbearer gets to use the gun again in the next cycle.

Should The Gunbearer shoot a Townie, The Gunbearer dies and the targeted Townie becomes the new Gunbearer.

And if The Gunbearer reaches deadline without making a shot, The Gunbearer dies and the scumteam privately picks a living Townie to be the next Gunbearer.

This continues until one faction is completely eliminated. For Town, this requires all Mafia dead. For Mafia, this requires all Town dead (except for the last Gunbearer, who is endgamed).


1. Standard NOC rules. This is a simple game, and I want to keep it simple by limiting gametalk to the play thread and the scumchat. There is also no deadtalk or post editing allowed.

2. The Gunbearer shoots their chosen target with the command Shoot: Name of Player, along with pings for the Mod. This must be posted by the current Gunbearer in the game thread. Once The Gunbearer posts the shoot command, they cannot change their action and the current cycle is officially considered ended. Depending on mod/cohost availability, there may be a delay between cycle's end and the result.

3. If you're not The Gunbearer, you may not send in any commands. You can however, talk to The Gunbearer or any other player in the game as much as you want until the deadline or until The Gunbearer shoots, whichever comes first. Suggest a target, argue a case, beg for your life, or just casually chat, whichever you prefer. You also have the option to post pseudo-votes and FoSes, which have no bearing on the game other than to show your scumreads.

4. This is a nightless game with a 72 hour deadline for each cycle. The only time it is not a unicycle format is if The Gunbearer dies by idling out. If this happens, the Mafia has 24 hours to pick a new Gunbearer.

5. Mod reserves the right to adjust the 72 hour deadline to accommodate his own schedule. No player-requested extensions will be allowed.

6. Please inform the Mod if you are going to be unavailable due to vacation and/or limited access (V/LA) and provide on ETA for when you/your internet service will return. Players in V/LA Mode cannot be subbed out before the expected return date. Mafia cannot select a player in V/LA Mode when choosing a Gunbearer.

7. This game has 20 players. Town to Mafia ratio is 13:7.

8. Players may communicate privately with the Mod if they so wish. Nothing said by the Mod/Cohost in one of these private conversations may be copypasted or quoted verbatim while the game is ongoing.

9. If you discover something gamebreaking, report it to the Mod. Mod reserves the right to prioritize forced subbing over modkilling.

10. I don't think it really needs to be said, but The Gunbearer (no matter who that may be) can only shoot one player per cycle and is not allowed to shoot themself.

11. If you haven't read the rules, you're gonna have a bad time.

Confirmation Phase

Nice day for a movie. Especially a blockbuster like Superheroes Fight Supervillains and Each Other Until the Day is Saved: The Penultimate ReReckoning. All those exciting explosions, wirework judo fights, and laserspear battles. It's a great movie to watch... and a great place for the local Costa Nostra to have a secret meeting. (Though it isn't actually all that secret. I mean, come on, a bunch of people dressed up like extras from Robin and the Seven Hoods walk into a public place together? They're lucky to be sitting in a darkened room. But I digress.) Too bad the goon who got stuck with Snack Duty left one of the jumbo popcorns in someone else's seat... along with their gun.

All role PMs have been sent out. The scumchat has been opened. Post here to confirm that you have received your role. During this time the scum will also be privately choosing the first Gunbearer.

First Shot (Nth Shot is the name of the cycles) will begin once all players have confirmed.
