Lucidity Challenge 37: Winner - Scipio Xaos! Congrats!

I’ve already exhausted a ton of methods too (more than Thorn let on but I ain’t sharing because that gives you ideas) so I’d also like to know the exact rules for what “Flight” are.

I am not going to be that strict on the definition of flight. If you feel that you achieved flying in your dreams, then that is probably good enough. However, I will also give you a more technical definition.

As the dictionary on my computer put it: Fly - move through the air under control.

That is basically it. I’ll add this to the task posting as well. I’m glad to see that you guys are getting creative with your solutions.

Also, Thorn, if you have used transformation before, you can use it again. Just turn into something different. If you have turned into a crow to fly, but never into a bluejay, then turn into a bluejay and fly. If you sprout wings, and you have done it before, then make sure that the wings are significantly different. For instance, if you used large white angel wings, then you can sprout something like scaly dragon wings or tiny fairy wings. I’m not going to be that strict on definitions, and I am leaving it up to you guys to determine if you have met the goals or not.

I hope this clarifies any ambiguities.

About a 5 minute long average LD. Flight was possible but I didn’t want to let myself float away. It wouldn’t be a new method either :peek: . So no flight really.

I’d like to join pls…

Hi Jessica, you have been added. Welcome to the 37th LC.

We still have room for six more people, so if anyone else wants to sign up, you can continue to do so throughout the competition.

I had a short LD this morning (link: it’s the blue text there). I knew how I wanted to get into the air, but just as I was about to get started, I woke up.

It seems that argon, Gwee, and I are incubating an experience as a group, similar to what Gwee and I started back in February. Does anybody else want in? You probably can’t get lots of creativity points if we’re all going to do essentially the same thing, but it’s nice to be able to talk about it with each other. :razz:

I had a 3 part chain of LDs, the first two were short but the last was medium length. I used electromagnetic forces to lift myself off the ground and flew for a few meters, but it was hard and took a lot of focus. I have flown a lot easier than this before.

I had nearly the same dream :shy:

Except I actually got myself lifted off my bed for a moment or so. I don’t know if I want to count that for flight since I didn’t get too far up and the dream filled with water immediately afterwards again I guess as an attempt to “explain” the floating.

Still not a new method. This dream was shorter than the other one and probably ought to be classified “short”.

Two short lucid parts. Just flew for both of them.

First dream (longer one), I was in a really gloomy mood as a result of all these issues popping up in the dream. I decided to RC and find out I’m dreaming. While I focused on my hand RC, I didn’t notice that the scene switched from a store entrance to my front door. I float up and smacked into the door trying to pass through xD. I opened the door instead of trying to get through, didn’t want to lose dream time. I flew up into the air and attempted the superman style( done this before) since I’m always flapping my wings. I wanted to warm up before meeting a few others for a race, so I flew around in the air trying to will myself to speed up, but sadly I did not. 8(

Second part, I “woke” up to my father breaking into my room telling me I should be sleeping. I perform my hand RC and realized I was still dreaming. I laugh and demanded to know why he didn’t tell me I was dreaming, he suddenly falls silent at my question. He takes a seat on my room chair and I command another chair to fall from the ceiling ontop of him, it does but it’s barely visible. I jump out of my room window and flew into the sky, but then I woke up shortly after.

I had a ND this morning in which I flew like Superman for a short while. While I’ve never flown in that exact posture before, I have done willpower-based flight, and I assume this counts as that; therefore, it’d be part three of the task.

I had an LD this morning which included a NLD flight session. It wasn’t nothing special (I was in a ship), but that’s about it.

The dream is here.

Also, headintheclouds, I meant ask: If I awake and record notes during the night, but not write out a complete DJ entry, would they count as separate dreams? or would they be lumped up as one NLD / LD ?

[community.ld4all.com/t/masonc1s-new-dream-journal/37225/76)

Extremely short LD. I had some time floating above my bed before it at around the SP time, but since this wasn’t explicitly in the dream and I don’t consider it flying I am not counting that.

If you awake, move around, open your eyes, and don’t fall asleep for at least 30 seconds, then I would consider that to be two separate dreams.

Perhaps a better definition would be what I consider chaining. If you never actually awake, but regain lucidity within a dream, that would be considered part of chaining in this LC. Also, if you actually awake, and then employ DEILD right away, then that is also chaining. However, it seems to me that the act of writing in your DJ, even if only for a brief period of time, constitutes being awake for a significant period of time, thereby signifying two separate dreams.

By the way, on your last post, you didn’t post how long your LD was, so I assumed it was short. If this is wrong then please let me know.

I had a medium length LD here, again with willpower flight (only lucid this time!). I attempted to prepare something else on which to fly, but the dream caved in on itself before I could take to the skies.

Double post for another short LD here. I again used willpower flight as general transportation until finding somebody I needed to start my LC attempt, but again woke up.

My first time actually flying.

I’ve had three NDs since the challenge started.

In the first one, I dreamed about the Lucid Challenge. Also I invented my own weird task in the dream that I thought was the actual task.

I also had that “level of lucidity” where I become aware that I had a dream and spend all my awareness thinking about the dream and trying to remember it for when I wake up.

HeadInTheClouds: Ah. Well I get completely out of bed, scribble some notes, perhaps nom a piece of chocolate, sip some water, and then go back to bed nearly ten minutes later. :razz: Also, it was a short LD. It only lasted about 13 seconds. :razz:

Another short LD here, but this one is task worthy! I flew in a new way for me! :grin: I had awesome golden garnet black tipped wings! :cool:

Task 1: 1[/spoiler]

I had an ND today with a new flight method – I had a small, personal plane due to the dream being based on a racing game I played recently. The race course in the dream and in that game was itself based on a game with lots of willpower flight, and I found myself performing willpower flight as well.

Short LD with bad recall.
