 The way I recall the rule being, and the way I'm using it regardless, is
 that when a posse member does Something Very Bad (in my case, a couple of
 them raised the Fear Level in a town and won a black chip each) you toss 'em
 a black chip and grin.  It then sits in their chip pile, taking up one of
 their ten spaces and hanging over their head making them worry.  Then, when
 you deem it appropriate, YOU spend it to have something horrible happen to
 the player - something nasty from their character background, or somebody
 they slighted in the campaign or something, runs into them coincidentally.
 Or something like that.
