Guidelines

1. Evidence must be presented of legitimate beef for a Tune Battle (henceforth known as 'the battle') to take place
2. Both parties (henceforth known as 'parties' or 'party') must agree to the battle.

6. The judge will upload both tracks with their identity concealed to Soundcloud
7. A voting thread will then be created, with the voting time running for 96hrs.
8. Upon the completion of the voting period, whichever tune has the most votes shall be declared the winner, at which point the judge will reveal the party responsible for each track
9. Should either party not submit their track to the judge within the allotted time, they will be automatically disqualified
10. Additonal grounds for disqualification include but are not limited to;
    
    • attempting to influence voting
    • Revealing identity of tracks prior to the voting period ending
    • Beginning work on a track before the allotted time period
    • Submission of a prior or existing work

[*]Beginning work on a track before the allotted time period

How would you know if they'd done this?

[Sexual_Chocolate]

the choice of genre. obviously if you choose one that neither person produces you should be fine in that respect.

I have already lost a tune battle to everyone else on DSF. They are better producers than I am

Can we have a rule where if something as simple as agreeing to battle or choosing a genre isn't established within a time period or by a certain page then the thread is locked and done with.
