The Battle Host must provide a sample set to be used for the battle. These samples are the only sound sources allowed, unless the Additional Rules for the battle state otherwise. The samples can be anything that the Battle Host has the right to distribute for non-commercial use.
The Battle Host must create three Additional Rules. These can allow or require additional sound sources, or impose any kind of new requirements.
THE CONTEST
Anyone can enter the Battle by posting a link to their entry in the Battle thread. Unless the Additional Rules state otherwise, any processing is allowed and the source samples need not be recognizable. The Host may disqualify any entry that does not meet either the general rules or the additional ones.
Once the submission deadline is reached, the winner is elected by posting votes in the same thread. Anyone is welcome to vote whether they participated or not. In case of a draw, the Host designates the winner between the submissions tied for first place.
THE DEADLINES
Each battle takes place over two weeks, starting on a Friday. Submissions close and votes open at 23:59 on the 11th day (tuesday). Voting closes at 23:59 on the 13th day (thursday). The winner then becomes the Host, and has until 23:59 on the 14th day (friday) to post a new thread with a new sample set and new rules.

My mind has been all over the place, so the track kind of reflects that. It's inconsistent and the mixdown sounds like shit, but i've grown bored of it. So here it is, I guess.
Maybe in a couple of weeks we should just post a thread titles "who wants to do a beat battle?" And see how many folks would participate. I'm super busy for the foreseeable future, but if there are enough peeps into it, I'd crap one out. I'm a lot more motivated when there's more ppl involved.
posting this through my phonnne, actually I'm posting from my desktop, but I will only be home a few days, then I will leave for a week and finally be back for good.
