For a basic overview: the game is played entirely with voice recordings. Text-based posts are illegal with one small exception -- you may post links to recordings with a limited number of words in the link description to indicate the contents of the recording (like you see above with "introductory recording"). I can provide further examples if this is confusing.
The game will operate at a standard length, likely 48/24. Given that it is a Racket, there will also be a post count limitation. In a Vocaroo game this is actually a very good thing, because the recordings can be difficult to follow and keep straight if there are thousands of them in the thread in any given day phase. This will keep the game manageable.
Expect a vanilla+ game (predominantly vanilla roles with a small-to-moderate number of power roles). I can work with just about any number of players, but I will set the minimum at 9 players and the maximum at 17 players. It needs to stay manageable.
Post limitation -- 75 per day, with the cap lifted one hour prior to EOD (subject to tweaking before the game).

You are Zenon, Town 1-shot Desperado. You’re known for posting a lot (namely in anime gif form), playing a lot, and, most importantly, making snap decisions – particularly in the endgame. In a recent game, Wild West FM, you were taken to final 3 and immediately voted the last wolf, resulting in a LyLo that was strictly speaking over in four minutes and two posts. This game, we’re giving you the chance to accomplish a similar feat.
High-Risk High-Reward (Day 2+, 1-shot, Immediate): Spend 6 Snapvote Charges, post Fuck it we ball glgl in bold red text, and ping a player. (When you use this ability, you should also inform the hosts privately.) If they are Town, you will strongman die. Otherwise, you will strongman kill that player. This action resolves instantly.

Glad to have everyone. We've hit the minimum, but I'll give it a bit more time while Nanook's Racket runs.

So it turns out if you just drop the Vocaroo link into the post with no coding, it auto-embeds. That's great, and will really make navigating the game less of a pain in the ass.
Instead of using a limited number of words to label a vocaroo direct link, I can allow a limited number of words to label the contents of an auto-embed. For example:

I'll close sign-ups tonight at midnight EDT. Before we get started I would recommend everyone pay a visit to Vocaroo to ensure they're able to make it work properly and that the posts are clear and audible to others.
