Lucidity Challenge 51 - Winner: Thorn!

So I had my longest lucid dream ever last night! The stability was amazing. It started off as a DILD, and luckily, lucidity remained through a handful of scènes / stories, before waking up. (estimated length ~8 min)

Only in the end did I come up with LC tasks; I recalled telekinesis and invulnerability. For telekinesis, I figured that I use it virtually every time to start a flight (as I did multiple times in this LD), since it’s the way that works best for me (by lifting myself up in the air). But this is not really what telekinesis means, so feel free to discard it. Invulnerability proof is in the spoiler (slight warning for sensitive readers):

I then took a big knife, tried hard to cut and chop off my finger but couldn’t. In any case, I never felt any pain and everything remained 100% intact. (Pain is rare in my dreams anyway)

For some reason I thought that eating vegetarian food was among the tasks, so I did that too. :happy:

This experience was so awesome though, I feel like a goal has been achieved (especially regarding length)!

While I can’t match nomat’s lucid (sounds awesome, though! :happy: ) I did have a dream where I asked a Futuristic Human a question.

OOOH yes!! This week is my week! Telekinesis is already going so I just got to get lucid
Ohh and superivision I’m all up for that .
grats to anyone who already succeeded in this week

In this morning’s dream, I completed the proprioception task by feeling wings. It’s not how I wanted to complete this task, since I feel wings all the time and wanted to focus on a tail instead, but points are points.

Short ld, no tasks

In the second of these dreams, I play an instrument (or as the scoresheet says, an ‘intstrument’) and eat a food that tastes like a different food.

Short LD + Telekinesis

  • I played a musical instrument
  • I ate food that tasted like different food
  • i did the element manipulation task, while lucid

i had several lucid dreams:

  • medium length: water element control in the world of the movie Frozen (at least it wasn’t ice :smile:)
  • medium length lucid - made a bowl of green tea boil by thought (not a task, but points for the lucid)
  • medium length lucid where I overhear police officers talking

Current Scores.

Now that the scores are currently updated, I will make a consistent effort to try to update them every single day. We are getting near the end of the LC 51 , so I want to provide you all with a reliable scoreboard. Once again, If you see any mistakes let me know either through IRC or PM and we will take care of that privately! Everyone is doing a wonderful job! Keep up the good work.

@nomat: Woah, Nice lucid man! Congrats on your longest ever. You racked up some serious points with that one.

@Thorn: Fixed the typo of instrument on the spreadsheet- nice catch. Also, your scores are updated and you’re not too far from first!

@Obfusc8: Still maintaining your 1st position. Well done! oh, and I corrected the “Taste something good” from a while ago, hahaha. Honest mistake.

@ Yanshuf: This week can totally be your week. I believe in you - Dream hard and score some points :happy:

Last night in a Medium LD I threw some elemental magic around, switching the effect from fire to lightning to ice as it jumped between DCs.

Double post… not sure if etiquette is to edit the old or post again…

Last night in a short LD my reflection in a mirror looked like a dark shadowy demon. Which is not my normal appearance, despite what you all might think. :tongue:

Current Scores.

Good job Obfusc8 on claiming some more points. You are the only one from yesterday and today!

Where is everyone else?? Are you guys all sleep or something? :tongue:
(if you are, hopefully your doing tasks!) :rofl:

I did it

Oh look! I accidentally did a task! While lucid! :happy:

In the second long lucid dream here I experience proprioception by transforming myself into a dragon-human hybrid and flying with wings.

I did a task! No lucid! Still!!! :razz:

In a non-lucid dream, I did the mirror task.

I had two lucid dreams this morning, which I’ve posted here. The first was short with no tasks in it. The second one was medium-length and had me eating something that’s inedible and redoing the proprioception task for the lucid bonus.

Regrettably, as there’s been no sign of the final week tasks, I’m going to have to drop out of the lucid challenge. :sad:

I’m off on holiday and will intentionally have no computer, no internet (no motorbike :cry: ) and hopefully real life will be more interesting than my dreams for a change… It’s been almost two years since my last proper holiday so I intend to disconnect and totally chill out for a while, not attempt to write up dreams on my phone.

And basically if this all wraps up before my return I don’t want to keep folks waiting or wondering if there will be a massive point dump from me at a later date, so Jer please remove me from the scoreboard as well.

Best of luck everyone. Sweet dreams. :smile:

^ Nooooo! We were just bonding over your huge dragon-ness, too!

I’m really sorry to hear that you’ve got to go. Not only is it not fair to you, but it hurts me as well, as I’ve seen time and again that I have way more lucid dreams when I have competition. Personally, I’d love it if there was something you could do to make dream recording on holiday less of a chore for a bit. Perhaps you could record your voice for a personal dream journal or simply post points you’ve earned in this topic without a DJ entry.

In any case, enjoy your vacation and enjoy any LDs that may come.

Back on topic, this dream has me seeing something on the U.S. west coast even though I live on the east coast, so I’m claiming the supervision task.
