| The Town Of Nowhere (Web Video) | comment |
The Town of Nowhere is a subseries of Vinesauce and an Actual Play of a rather unorthodox form of Tabletop RPG gameplay created by RevScarecrow. Using various self-photoshopped assets made to mimic CGA graphics, Rev acts as a Game Master for his Twitch chat's sole Player Character, whose main goal is to find a sister not even they can remember in a West Texas town where monsters and other magical beings live in relative normalcy. Because any chat member can submit what they want said character to say or do to a majority vote, however, things tend to go Off the Rails in unprecedented ways.The series' first stream was on December 3rd, 2019, and its final one was on October 2nd, 2020. A playlist can be found here. Rev later released condensed versions of the streams which remove the long pauses necessary for chat to make decisions on how to proceed. A playlist of the condensed videos can be found here. | |

Named by Democracy | |
| The Town Of Nowhere (Web Video) / int_3b194a1a | comment |
Named by Democracy: Like all the rest of the main character's actions and motivations, their name was decided by the Twitch chat — in response to the question "Can I have your name?" This was played straight, however — the chat also decided that their name is literally "No". | |

Bittersweet Ending | |
| The Town Of Nowhere (Web Video) / int_40cc0c7e | comment |
Bittersweet Ending: No manages to seemingly kill the sewer creature with a bomb, and the HDG brings over alternate versions of everyone who has died... but they're now a wanted fugitive for blowing up the motel, and Christopher, the motel manager, still dies due to the explosion. | |

Ambiguous Gender | |
| The Town Of Nowhere (Web Video) / int_4510b368 | comment |
Ambiguous Gender: The chat has not decided on a gender for No, so they are consistently referred to as "they". The only thing Chat has decided so far about No's gender is that they are transgender, as evidenced by their choice to get transgender and bisexual pride flag nail art at the nail salon. | |

Magic Mirror | |
| The Town Of Nowhere (Web Video) / int_5b47c8c7 | comment |
Magic Mirror: Not the talking example — when No looks into a mirror in their motel room, a dried blood stain is visible on the wall behind them. It can't be seen in real life, but when No touches that same spot on the wall with their hand the texture is notably different. | |

Freeze-Frame Bonus | |
| The Town Of Nowhere (Web Video) / int_62f9d08e | comment |
Freeze-Frame Bonus: Near the end of episode 9, No peeks out from behind the Starbucks to see themself step off of the bus like they did in episode 1, and hides as their past self pulls out their map. Sure enough, if you go back to the beginning of episode 1, when Rev first pulls up the Starbucks scene, before pulling up the map for the chat, there's a familiar face peering out from behind the building, which is gone after he puts away the map. | |

Faking and Entering | |
| The Town Of Nowhere (Web Video) / int_7e4b4b8a | comment |
Faking and Entering: Played With. No stealing as much food as they can from Darrell's refrigerator is a good cover for their true objective (a letter addressed to Elise from them), but they aren't exactly Darrell's friend or a prime suspect... and their theft was less motivated by strategy than by hunger. | |

Creepy Good: The Home Depot employees, who are revealed to worship the god who is trying to return lost things to the town — and escort No safely back to their motel room afterwards. They also wear long robes and chant “Home Depot, (incorrect slogan)â€� every other sentence. | |

Powers That Be: The Home Depot God and the other entities they mention certainly fits into this category: they can see what is going on, although it is unknown if they can affect them. The fog of memory erasure plaguing the Town of Nowhere may fit into this category as well. | |

Wham Episode | |
| The Town Of Nowhere (Web Video) / int_8e20979 | comment |
Wham Episode: The latter half of Episode 9. No and the other Home Depot employees split up to different areas of the town to investigate, but while on their way to 7/11, No realizes that they don't remember who Jim, one of the other employees, is. They go to the sewers with backup to check on this "Jim" person's last known location — but their backup goes missing while they're both in the sewers. No runs into a bloodied, bird-like bipedal creature who begins to menacingly approach them, when all of a sudden, they black out and are thrown into last week by the Home Depot Entity — literally. No wakes up in the back alley of Starbucks to the voice of the HDG telling them to stay out of sight, feeling like complete garbage. At the end of the episode, they realize that it's the Saturday they arrived in Nowhere, and watches themself step off the bus. | |

Ret-Gone: Explained by the Home Depot god to be the reason No can't find any record of their sister, other than the letter she sent them. She isn't the first to be taken either - according to the god, some entity has been taking "people, things, ideas, thoughts" out of time and space. | |

Must Be Invited | |
| The Town Of Nowhere (Web Video) / int_b91eaeea | comment |
Must Be Invited: After No checks into the motel, a man appears at the door with a pamphlet about vampires, claiming that they have been victim to unfair stereotypes, and asking to be invited in. When No refuses, he comes back wearing Groucho glasses and begging them to let him in because "there's vampires out here!" Naturally skeptical but not wanting to risk the possibility that the man really will get killed by vampires, No opts to leave the door open while also telling the man he isn't explicitly invited, so he can take refuge if he's human but can't enter if he's a vampire. No wakes up the next morning to find him gone, clearly never having entered. | |

Horror Hunger: Noah, who we first meet having just finished eating the cashier at the 7/11. Fortunately downplayed when we learn more: Noah is afflicted with a curse that requires him to eat flesh, but the 7/11's cashier is a zombie who can simply respawn after being killed and has kindly made an arrangement with Noah to let him be eaten once a week so Noah can keep the curse in check without any moral dilemma. | |
