What is the gungame?
The gungame is a TF2 script by chundo that modifies your ability to select your class and weapon. Namely, you can't select your class or weapon: you start with scout, and his scattergun. Get a kill with the scattergun, the script switches you to the pistol; get a kill with a pistol, move on to baseball bat; get a kill with the baseball bat, you get automatically switched to soldier and his rocket launcher, and you continue the same process with the soldier's rocket, shotgun, and shovel, in that order. You move through all the classes (and their weapons) like this, in the order seen on the class selection screen, and the first person to get a kill with the spy's knife wins the game! Yay.
It's called the gungame because it's a game where you have to go through all of the guns of each class.
FAQ
1. Why are the supply cabinets in the respawn rooms disabled?
Because otherwise you could get back all your guns, defeating the whole purpose.
2. What about getting an assist with the medigun?
The game is coded to skip the medigun and go straight to the bonesaw/ubersaw. This probably has to do with question 4, "What about assists?", and the pain of coding an assist function just for the medic for one gun.
3. What about the other non-weapon accoutrements (disguise kit, electrosapper, and the engie's building and destruction consoles)?
You don't need to get a kill with them... that's right, no sentry kills!
4. What about assists?
This is unconfirmed: Assists show up in the upper-right-hand area as PlayerX + PlayerY [cause of death] VictimA. If you are PlayerX (first name in the kill log), and therefore got the 'kill' point, it will count as a kill and you will move on to the next weapon. If you assisted (PlayerY, or, the second name in the kill log), it does not count for the purpose of moving on to the next weapon/class.
How do you enable gungame?
Right now it's only on the pubbie, and you initiate a gungame vote by typing "votegungame" into the chat window. People who also want gungame need to type votegungame as well.
Why shouldn't I enable the gungame right now?
Because it'll crash the pubbie, eventually... usually after one person gets to spy. That, and a few people have had problems with it not registering kills, and getting stuck on the Scout's scattergun.
Furthermore, don't even think of setting it up on arena - once the round ends you'll just be set back to the beginning.
