I don’t know. Will this happen during Christmas/New Year? I might be travelling. Unless you allow another user to post on my behalf, then I could SMS what to post, and get an SMS with the Tasks…
Sign me up too
I’d like to start as soon as we have 10 people. I also have a few ideas for holiday tasks, so yes Bruno, if it is alright with everyone competing, I would like to do it over the Holidays.
(Besides, most people will have time off from school/work, so there may be some better results.)
As far as someone posting on your behalf, I think that will be OK, so long as I know who it is and you can verify all the information afterwords, before the challenge is completely over. (In other words: I want you to tell me they posted the right info.)
I’d hate to have to exclude someone due to holiday travel.
/me adds liam to list.
Should I add you, too, Bruno?
Thank you Ysim,
Every day is there a different task to earn task points?
Essentially, though I’m thinking I’ll give you guys 48 hours for each task.
Yeah, 48 hours would be better
oh oh oh!
sign me up please!
Nah, thanks Xander, I’ll pass. It would be overcomplicating, and I can always join the next challenge
OK.
/me adds recall

Task 1: Breaking the Ice
As we are coming into winter (well most of us) I thought it would be appropriate that the first task be to an experience to break the ice. You must do exactly that, find a body of water (well ice) and break it.
The point breakdown:
Find water - 5
Freeze the water - 20
Find ice - 15
Crack the ice, but don’t break through - 15
Break through - 50
Cause a huge chain reaction or otherwise catastrophic break - 20
Break through it in an interesting way - 15 (This includes but is not limited to melting, casting a magic missile, phasing through it…)
Swim around under the ice - 10
Remember, there is a 30 point bonus for lucidity, and a 10 point bonus for doing it before the deadline.
The deadline is 2:00 AM GMT Monday, December 24.
Just a warning, only about 24 hours left. You are halfway done with the first task.
And no results…ah well, I’m sure you guys will get lucid tonight.
/me send lucid vibes to everyone.
well even though i didn’t join just saying i found water last night
I got lucid last night!!!
I was in the my town’s main square, and I look up and see the big church on the hill, as it should be. But on the roof is that dog Toto, and it flies off the roof. That’s not right! [color=green]I must be dreaming![/color] Remembering the challenge, I look around and [color=blue]find a puddle[/color]. I jump in and find out it’s more like a deep swimming pool. Looking up, I wonder what it’d be like to be a fish swimming around in a frozen lake, since we don’t exactly get frozen lakes in Florida. [color=blue]I make a thin layer of ice appear[/color] on the surface. (Nothing interesting happening, this was a very realistic dream.) But oh no! Some fellow swimmers on the surface are trapped in the ice! So [color=blue]I swam up[/color] really quickly like a dolphin or something and[color=blue] shattered the thin ice with my head. [/color]
At that point my mind said "ok, challenge done, now to do that Animal Clan task! "
And the scores stand now at:
- hunaynay - 125
- MatrixManNe0
- Siiw
- Zz
- Doson
- Magnus
- Mugiwara
- Liam_sw
- Recall
- Yohan
Task 2: Search for the Holiday Dragon
Oh no! It’s raining, windy, and foggy. Not even Rudolph will be able to guide Santa this time. What shall we do?
Wait I know, the Holiday Dragon can help! His wings are stronger than Rudolph’s magic, and his fire-breath is brighter than Rudolph’s nose. We now must embark to find him and save Christmas!
I should write a childrens’ book…
The point breakdown:
Search for a dragon - 5
Find a (nonholiday) dragon - 10
Find the Dragon of another holiday - 20
Find the Holiday Dragon - 50
Send the Holiday Dragon to the North Pole (but don’t accompany him) - 15
Bring the Holiday Dragon to the North Pole - 25
Send the other dragons to the North Pole - 5
Bring the other dragons to the North Pole - 15
Meet Santa - 20
Remember, there is an up to 30 point bonus for lucidity, and a 10 point bonus for doing it before the deadline. (Which means you can still do Task 1, but without the Bonus.)
I would also appreciate a discription of the dragon(s) you find, as best as possible I’m curious to see what people will find
The deadline is 2:00 AM GMT Wednesday, December 26.
It really is rainy and foggy around here, and warm. Slightly depressing just before Christmas.
Good luck everyone.
