The game becomes crazy and harried as the timer is running out and robbers keep pouring in through the doors. It turns into a shooting gallery twitch exercise. For big points, wait until the robbers draw their guns before you shoot them. Bonus points are awarded for your average speed on the draw in cases where enemy draws first, so shoot one robber with a quick-draw and shoot the rest unfairly before they draw for big bonus.
