@Susan_Y - Grats on getting lucid. Chasing the necromancer counts for the Week 3 see a chase & participate task/subtask, but not for the Playground Week 4, as I doubt you were going to just touch him and shout “IT!” when you caught him.
There’s just 20 points between you, Koal44 and Cornelia Xaos. And only 2/3 sleeps remaining before the end of the challenge. Who will claim second place? @GenghisKhan - Congrats on finishing all the side missions and week 1 tasks, that’s impressive work. You are back onto ‘Musical’ side quest as that follows on from Horror. Also, as Moth-man declared he was planning on world domination, he counts as a super villain, marking off the Week 3 subtask. Thanks for saving the world!
obfusc8: Eh… I don’t really view Telekinesis as magic, per se. It’s more like a super power. Yea, in dreams this is all semantics, but still.
Anyways… since Koal hasn’t filed a “counter claim” I’ll do so myself. Yet another short lucid dream (from the same kind of style as the rest of them last week ).
Claiming some points for a ND where I encountered some werewolfes and Vampires.
I was also definitely a werewolf at some point of the dream but I don t remember “transforming” into it. (Does it count for changing your appearance + hybrid?)
In a later game I invented another game which was totally lame this time
and in a last ND I dreamt that the LC was over since sunday, that I couldn’t claim my lastpoints and therefore Cornelia wonthe LC (eventhough it was clear that Gengis Khan should have won in my dream as well )
I wish I had at least been Lucid for one of these last tasks…
@Cornelia - It’s good, but it’s not enough! You’ve slipped to 4th place (although you are 1 sleep behind Susan & Koal due to timezone differences.
@Thorn - Heh… doh… it was a dream car, so crashing wouldn’t have mattered… oh well.
@Koal - Yep I will count the werewolf tf, as in a normal dream it can be difficult to determine/remember when exactly you change form.
@Susan_Y - (No need to double post, you can put multiple dreams and point claims in one, I’ll work it out. ) Nice lucid, and it’s got you back into second place, but can you hold onto it until the end?
TO ALL CHALLENGERS: The challenge ends at 1pm GMT tomorrow, but there will be a 24 hr grace for you to type up dreams and claim any points earned before the deadline, with the winner and final scores announced on Thursday.
Lucid dream, long duration (10 minutes subjective time), in which I explore a tropical forest, see a tiger, and ask a dream character out on a date.
I claim the points for:
Long duration lucid
Asking a dream character out on a date
This might also be a completion of:
Bring a child’s toy to life. I had wanted to meet “Tigger”, a toy tiger that I had. Tigger seems to have manifested as a majestic real tiger, worthy of the poem by William Blake or the painting by Henri Rousseau (Tiger in a Tropical Storm), so might not count for the task. The tropical forest was like something by Rousseau.
I’ve already done the “explore a forest” and “forest parkour” tasks, so no new points there; but the dream was possibly influenced by my memory of the tasks.
Well, there’s no surprises on first place. Dominating the challenge all the way through, GenghisKhan has shown impressive dream control and a high rate of lucid dreams. I was going to add up how many tasks/subtasks completed, but gave up. It’s a lot. Also Genghis completed every single genre on the side quest to experience a wide range of dream themes and locations.
Susan_Y and Koal44 are the runners up, and they both had some quality lucid dreams and task combos to rack up points. Also the top three dreamers all completed their personal goals, which IMHO, should be priority number one when you become lucid. I hope you got a sense of accomplishment from completing those goals.
On that note, a special mention to James_uk2008 for a particularly epic transformation that combo’d several of the tasks and his personal goal. Awesome.
Anyway, that’s enough from me. Congratulations to GenghisKhan and to everyone that took part, I hope you had fun. GenghisKhan, you get the option of hosting the next challenge.
Regrettably I won’t be taking part in the next one, as my wanderlust has taken over again: I’m off on a two week tour of China soon…
As I said earlier, this was my first Lucid Challenge, so I am really proud of the result
Also, I had no idea of my relative performance, and I will take care to handicap my score in future Challenges, as to keep it fair and funny for everyone.
I am honored to have the chance to guest the next Challenge.
However, in all honesty, I am not too sure about all rules and conventions, and I have no idea of what kind of tasks have already been proposed in the past; let’s say, I feel a bit unprepared in hosting it.
That said, if everyone wishes to step up and host the next Challenge, post here, I will be glad to pass it
If not, I will do my best to host a nice Challenge for everyone
Yeah I found it great that so many people answered this week
Congratulation to all of you and especially to Cornelia who also did a great job in the LC with 14 LDs! I find the rate amazing in one month (Of course Gengis Khan did 18 but still!)
I got lucky with one big LD to be in front of you this time
