With everyone having their own lives and things to do I get why posts from people have been few on the dailys as for the weeklys i'm not 100% sure maybe people thought they would like pack battles more than they actually did.
So that being said i'm scraping the pack battles and daily battles. We will try doing two Sample Battles every week 1 released on Monday and 1 released on Thursday.
Battle days
Monday's Sample goes to Wednesday cut off at 11:59 PM (EDT)
Thursday's sample goes to Saturday cut off at 11:59 PM (EDT)
Voting
As a new moderator of SampleBattle the first thing I'd like to say is thank you current moderators for allowing me the opportunity to hopefully spread some light on this subreddit as I truly believe this is a wonderful platform for music producers.
But now onto business....
I certainly don't wanna try and "reinvent" the wheel by any means, so I wanna keep the voting system the same, winner picks sample, etc etc....
However once we get the ball rolling I'd like to maybe get another sample a week (for a total of 3 a week instead of 2) and maybe even have a challenge sample ( a sample in which you have to use it in a certain genre of music... house, lofi, hiphop, trap, etc.)

Heey! This sub is getting some fresh attention and it seems like a perfect time to discuss how to organise this moving forward. Let's bring on some new mods, and figure out the optimal way to host these battles! How would you want it?

Hey guys, I'm a software developer who also happens to be interested in music production, and sampling in particular. I am thinking about creating a website equivalent to this subreddit. Where each week the website will randomly pick a song which everyone will have to attempt to sample. You'll be able to upvote other peoples tracks and comment on them. You will also be able to receive awards and badges for your tracks on your personal profiles.
What do you guys think? Shall I pursue this idea?
EDIT: I have purchased the domain samplebattle.com and have quickly designed a sketch of the mobile version (I'm going for the mobile-first design approach).

Hello my fellow producers, I'm sorry this sub went down in just a few battles, the disaster of the second battle overwhelm the team and we kind of bail.
The idea was pretty straight forward, fun and great to develop. but adding some stupid rules and voting system ruined almost everything, so in the search to revive this sub again I decided to make the battle simpler and add more integration from the community.
New rules are simple and straight forward.
