Lucidity Challenge 51 - Winner: Thorn!

  • 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

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.

After a period of silence, succeeded in lucidity last night. The length is pretty vague; the dreams / scènes had several intertwined plots (running at once), with variable lucidity, and I was just half-lucid most of the time. But let’s call it a medium-length LD.

I attempted my personal goal (fly around the Earth in space), after failing to recall other tasks. I’m flying faster and higher than ever! Many clouds passing by. I keep accelerating 'til the point of motion blur occurring on the clouds. According to my dreamworld, clouds seemed to extend all the way up to space. :razz: I see a dark hole getting larger and larger, this must be space, but unfortunately I never reach it before waking up. Thus, I don’t consider this completing my goal.

Sad to see you going, obfusc8! I’d gladly wait for your return before this LC’s finish.

Non-lucid dream in which I go out on a date with Kenji, who is a graduate student from Japan, studying in England. (Dream chracter, not a real person). No points scored, but I enjoyed it.

I am recaling at least one dream a night at the moment, but I’m not managing to complete many tasks. (I only post the interesting ones online; there’s more stuff in my offline dream journal).

I had a short LD this morning, as shown in this journal entry. I had two different instances of the invulnerability task before becoming realizing I was dreaming.

Lucid dream, medium duration (about 3 minutes), in which a friend of mine has returned from the dead. No tasks completed, but I’ll claim the points for lucidity.

P.S. Kenji in the previous dream is a character from a manga; after thinking about it some more, I identified the source. Yay! Kenji is the new transfer studfent, and we’re going out together, etc. If you’re familiar with the genre: at least I wasn’t late for lectures and eating a piece of toast when we first met.

This post has a short lucid dream and a medium-length one. In the latter, I repeat the proprioception task in character.

Finally broke through a grey spell this morning with an LD here this morning which at around 2-3 minutes long makes it a medium one for me. Featuring appearences from Thorn and a rare appearence from Siiw :smile:

I’d like to claim the “Taste something good” points from task 3 as my favourite hot sauce turned up in it this morning and tasted just like it :smile:

On another note, that was my 300’th LD :mrgreen_hat:

Current Scores.

Here are the current scores - they haven’t been posted in a while… I would just like to quickly say that the final week will be posted tonight! This week will be strictly seven days long (unlike some of the other weeks, which have dragged on for a bit… heh)

I would just like to take a second to remind everyone that the Ld4all Quest #105 is also available to complete for points! You can read more about it here … I know that tggtt put a lot of work into it, and it looks like a lot of fun!

Obfusc8 - It’s really unfortunate to see you go… you have been a big inspiration for a lot of people in this LC , and you always provide a nice competition. However, at the same time I respect your decision to drop out of the LC and not have a large LC point dump. I will remove you from the score boards. I hope you have a wonderful Vacation

Susan_Y - Nice DJ entries. Even when you’re not scoring points, it’s nice to read about the interesting dreams you have.

Thorn - Well, since Obfusc8 dropped out that puts you in first place by default. Also, congrats on being the first person in this LC to earn character points! They didn’t really take off in this LC like they did in the last one. Keep on dreaming!

James_uk2008 - Your points are noted. Congrats on the 300th LD ! :partying_face:

Week 5 is coming in less than 24 hours
