<p>Say that I have a <a href="http://dtdb.co/en/card/01146" rel="nofollow">Gunslinger</a> token in a shootout and he gets discarded or Aced. Per the card's text, you need to "Remove this token from the game after this shootout."</p>

<p>I presume that this means they go neither to the discard pile, nor to Boot Hill after a shootout. Does that mean that effects that trigger when a dude is discarded or aced happen to the Gunslinger? For instance, the <a href="http://dtdb.co/en/card/01076" rel="nofollow">Undertaker</a> deed has an effect that happens whenever a dude is aced. If the Gunslinger is aced in a shootout, does the Undertaker effect still happen even though the Gunslinger doesn't go to Boot Hill?</p>
