LC #27, Winner: Rhewin! Congratulations everyone!

I had an LD! It was a little erratic. No games, but I came across a DC who reminded me of Calvin from Calvin and Hobbs. Is that close enough to Calvinball? :tongue: I even remembered the LC, but then my dream logic got weird.

[spoiler]I can’t remember if I thanked him for the hospitality and asked to pass on my thanks to the rest of the family. I meant to, but the first thing I remember actually saying was, “I need to get out of here. I have these tasks… I have to fly out a window.”

He gestured to the paneless windows, long up-and-down rectangular cuts in the wall in front of his study table, and said, “Those are LCD screens.”

“That’s perfect!” I gleed, thinking it would put me in a video game for the Lucid Challenge but somehow not expecting it to.
[/spoiler]

Also, I got my interview question in with a DC, so I was hoping I can shuffle my personal goal around? (So my main one now is revisiting the Crossroads.)

[spoiler]I was the only passenger, and thought that it would behave like a bus or train, with stops that I wouldn’t have to direct. As I sat on the edge of the cloud-ship and watched the dusk stain the sky, I became more lucid.

Arne saknussemm had pm’ed me a question when I asked. I approached the driver of the cloud-ship and passed it on.

“I don’t know…” he answered, sounding annoyed, and then repeated with a surprising amount of anger (considering I hadn’t even said anything more, yet,) “I DON’T KNOW! GET THE HELL OFF MY SHIP!!” [/spoiler]

I’ve got a cold yesterday and all my excitement for LD’ing went away. I had two ND’s (one of them being some kind of nightmare)

Most of the song was played inside the dream, so yes, it was a medium LD :cool: I had another medium LD last night:

[spoiler]
Too Much Red
-My mother and i pull up and destroy poisonous plants around the railway station. The more we remove, the more we see. Some are twice as tall as us.

I somehow realise that it is a dream while pulling up plants. It is a little funny. I want very much to go to Ceeia, and tell myself: “This outhouse door leads to Ceeia!” The door leads only to a small room with another door, and another door behind it again, etc. It feels suffocating, and i try to walk through a plain wall. In the beginning, it feels just like a wall feels IRL, but after a few tries (I felt a little stupid!) it is possible to squeeze through it.

I come out in a dark inn or pub. Everything is reddish, as in a sunset. It feels wrong, and i wonder if light shines through my eyelids IRL. I draw another circle in the air, but the landscape on the other side has the same reddish colour. “It is still annoyingly red!”, i complain to a DC.

She suggests that i should add other colours to the dream world, and hands me a bucket of yellow paint. There is no brush. I dip my hand in it and make a big yellow spot on my own leg. It looks funny, and i paint yellow spots and stripes all over myself. The DC laughs. She has been painting white flowers on the walls in the mean time. I add some yellow to them.[/spoiler]

Good job EllyEve! :happy: You completed the task, but in order to count for company, you’d have to have done that with one person supporting you. So this one counts as single-made, but even so, | 10 + 30 lucid = 40 pts | for you! Plus of course | 30 LD points | :content:
Your next personal task will have to be attempted with company as well, since this one wasn’t. :tongue:

Sweet job again Siiw! :happy: Last one was | 30 LD + 5 chain points | , the last one | 30 LD pts | Keep it going! ^^

Gothic Fighter, hope you get well soon! Try and be more relaxed when you go to bed, just let yourself drift in thoughts of lucidity if you can’t manage techniques. :smile:

Haha. Today I had the best dream recall in a long time. Remembered several vivid, normal dreams, one of the involving playing tennis on a beach. Unfortunately no LD but I’m going to try a technique this night.

Gahh, no LDs yet. I almost had two WILDs this morning but I ended up waking myself up on both attempts.

No LDs yet! My mind is just too filled with my costuming deadline, I keep on waking up and realizing all the things I still have to do before the dress rehearsal next week. Grrrrrrr…
It’s my birthday today, and I thought a nice long LD might be the perfect present. Maybe tonight :pharaoh:

Had an LD with 2 Lucid FA’s in it :tongue:

about 15 minutes or something

Hey, I haven’t been able to do anything relevant point wise since the challenge started, but I did accomplish my goal before it did!

Anyway, since I accomplished my goal can I change it to, ‘become the opposite gender?’

I had my longest LD so far last night. Not really sure how long it was because there was short time in between in which I slowly lost my lucidity and don’t really recall. The stuff I remember of being lucid was a couple of minutes.

SPOILER - Click to view

I saw poo on the walls in my parental house and called my mom to check it out. When she came over to see it, the walls were normal again. She laughed at me and told me “you’ve probably dreamt it”. This didn’t make me lucid, because I thought the clean walls meant that I was now awake…some time later I’m outside telling my sister about this stupid dream and suddenly I realized that I didn’t remember waking up in between seeing the dirty wall and the clean wall, so still had to be dreaming…this made me LUCID. I flew up into the sky, but felt the dream fading, so I remembered to relax, focus on one point in my dream…but still it faded…I remembered to look at my hands and move them to feel the air and shouted MORE CLEARITY. This worked and I saw my hands very clearly and saw the dream re-appear. I was back on the street and I started waking around, which was hard due to low gravity. I remember thinking “I don’t understand why people find it hard to fly, while it’s freaking harder to stay ON the ground in a lucid dream”. I kept focussing on my hands when the dream faded, but slowly lost lucidity…suddenly I was talking to people about how I had become lucid. Suddenly a tall woman in a white dress started flying towards me and I sensed she was sort of evil…this made me lucid again and realized that she couldn’t harm me, because I was in control of the dream. I simply turned away from the lady and moved on. After a while I remembered my personal goal, which was fly (swimming style). I started swimming in the air, but stayed really close to the ground. I then felt that something was restricting my motion (like sea-weed). The dream started fading and I woke up staring at my real hand and the sea-weed was actually my sheets that were wrapped around me.

For me this was a long LD. I only achieved my goal partly, because I forgot I had to do it together with a DC and I didn’t really take off far from the ground during my flying attempt. Still a big smile on my face afterwards, though. :tongue:

It’s a pleasure to see you, [color=red]Colors[/color]. :content: Welcome aboard! I’m very interested to see how far your lucid skills can go now. :happy:

Congrats for the LD [color=red]GHOSTIE[/color]! Here’s | [color=#e4ecee]40 points[/color] | for you ^^

Many congratulations, [color=red]BeRightBack[/color]! For beating your personal record with a long LD, you get | [color=#e4ecee]40 LD + 5 regaining lucidity + 10 pers. record = 55 points![/color] | ^^ Good luck with your goal, I can see you’re already doing well :smile:

[color=red]Danielns[/color], of course you can change your goal :content: but remember you have to be with company to get the big points. They don’t need to transform as well, you just have to be accompanied, or helped.

[color=red]Gothic Fighter[/color], [color=red]Dreamjutsu[/color], and [color=red]KauaiDreamer[/color], from what you say, you’re all very close to having a LD, so good luck to all three! :wink:
/me sends lucid vibes for everyone. ^^

Also, sorry for the delay in the 2nd task, I just thought of adding one more day to complete the 1st one. :tongue: but anyway, here it comes!

We’ll play by a classic here!

Task #2: Visit Wonderland!

With special thanks to Wyvern for the suggestion ^^

You’re asked to enter the realm of fantasy, of imagination, and of craziness, your own Wonderland! … What, you say you will be already there in the first place cause you will be dreaming? Ah well, it doesn’t matter really, we’ll go for redundancy then :content:
The act of entering the Wonderland nets you 45 points. You can really think up any way to do that ^^ but if you did so by following the White rabbit, there’s another 15 points for you.

After you’re inside, all that’s left is exploring it, and living your crazy story! Tell us what your Wonderland is like, and you will get +15 points for every detailed creature or place you run into; but we’ve all read the book and seen the movie already, so no need to see that all over again, is there?
It’s your own Wonderland we’re talking about here, so it’s bound to be original and whimsical in your own, personal way! So as a bonus, if any of the creature or places you meet and describe is an original one, you get +25 points instead!

Of course, there’s also an adventure to live there, so particularly crazy, original and/or exciting reports will be awarded with bonus points. :happy:

So good luck to all participants, and see you all there :content:

Right, wonderland :tongue: Ill focus myself to this task while on my trip :grin:

very interesting ! I’ll plan this for tomorrow :smile:

I went to Wonderland in an ND by warping through a book, “Wonderland.” I ended up in an enclosed football stadium and proceeded to solve the mystery of Little Red Riding Hood. What does that have to do with Wonderland? The world may never know…

Also, one long low lucid LD last night. I helped free a small western town from a gang of outlaws. I freed a slave of theres and then ran them off, revealing a large supply of turkey dinners :content:

Good job Rhewin! I guess the ice has been broken now :content: That nets you | [color=#e4ecee]45 task + 30 lucid + 20 early = 95 points! ^[1] | Also, that score can easily raise if you provide a detailed report of what you met :wink: Plus of course | [color=#e4ecee]40 points[/color] | for that LD. :smile:

EDIT: Siiw had a medium LD (told me in chat). So | [color=#e4ecee]30 points[/color] | for you :content:

For everyone else, I’m still waiting! :wink: Show me your will to improve and do your best, be resolute when you go to bed, and be sure to live your dreams to the fullest! :happy:


  1. /color ↩︎

You’re going to adore this one,

Task #3: Love!

“You must be the change you want to see in the world.” - Mahatma Gandhi

If the world needs more love to be spread around, the why don’t we start practicing ourselves? Be the best person you can be, and spread love around, to friends, to family, to complete strangers, to Nature, love is for everyone and everything! :love:

Find more and more ways to show your affection, make people known that there’s someone loving them! :content: For each act of love, you are awarded +5 points. For every different being you show your love, affection, or compassion to, there’s +10 more points. For each different way you find to do so (be it kisses, hugs, presents, kind words, bringing them to fly with you…) you are awarded +10 points.

Then observe how your actions have produced a positive change, both in others, and yourself! Managing to witness the positive results of your love nets you 35 points.

Plus don’t forget that what goes around, comes around! I’m sure your dream world will be a much friendlier place next time you’re in :content:
Let love be spread within and without :happy:

Awww, what a sweet task :content:

And you’re right, I forgot to detail the creatures. The only one I really remember is the little brother of the big bad wold, the Little Bad Wolf. He actually looked your old avatar, tosxy :tongue: . He asked me to help clear his brother’s name, and then ran off.

Awww, that was so cute :content: Also, I sense someone wants my old avatar back :tongue: :lol: But have no fear, I’ll certainly put it back in its place once I’m done with something important.
Not to forget, | [color=#e4ecee]25 points[/color] | for the report :content:

I think I should post the partial scores st this point. :tongue: EDIT: Done!
