You are very very right there
I actually transformed three times during that lucid: into a squirrel, into a fish and into a bird
Hi everyone. I’m new here and I have a question about the WILD method to becoming lucid. Do I go through the steps of the method with my eyes closed or open? This may seem as a dumb or obvious question, but I am new to LDing and I’m unsure. And I’d like to ask what method you find to be most effective and if I should try a different method over WILD. Thanks for your help in advance!
Welcome to the forum newman! You are currently in the Lucidity Challenge thread, which is not quite the place for your question 
You can create a topic for it in the Quest for Lucidity part, over here: ld4all.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=22
Hi everyone! Sorry I’ve not been so active last week, I had a very busy launch in my company. From now on I’ll be updating the scores more frequently 
You can find the latest scores here.
Great to see progress this week for many of you
The new tasks will follow soon!
@Susan_Y, the clothes are okay, it’s more about the general look and feel than the exact timeframe
Congratulations on your points!
@DTDownUnder, good luck on your goal!
@Arial, Yes - you do still earn task points for each of the past weeks. The only difference is that you’re not able to score the early bonus for that week once it’s over. (But you already got that one, so it doesn’t make any difference for you).
When you complete tasks from two different weeks in the same dream, you score the combo bonus.
@Ladi Yomi, I assigned you points for a short LD. Let me know if it was a different length! (You can find the measurement for that in the first post of this challenge, under the scoring section.)
And congrats!
Had fun reading the mermaid story of Obsusc8 
@GenhisKhan, Wow, congratulations on completing your quite extensive personal task - and so soon! I’m curious when you’ll find the Muse
Your comment about the famous person made me realize the task was kinda vague, so I changed it into ‘meeting a famous person who has passed away’ meaning you completed it! I also rewarded you points for most of the tasks you mentioned - and for the Monthly LD4All quest.
The Quest of Week 3
The Background Story
[i]You are on yet another travel to the other side of the ocean, when you spot a bird flying towards you. As it comes closer, it appears to be a messenger hawk. You open the letter it brings you, which tells you that although you, and all the other Dream Heroes, have been travelling through Gulliver’s story - none of you have seen a sign from the Muse.
‘Its time to move on to your next story,’ states the last line of your letter.
‘But what story?’ you wonder.
Then you notice something else is included with your letter: a bar of chocolate. You are a bit surprised but quite hungry too, so you open it.
What’s that?
There’s something shiny inside.
It almost looks like… gold.
[/i]
Challenge tasks
Your most important task during this challenge is to find the Muse. The Muse comes in many shapes, and your Muse will look differently from the Muses of the other participants. So please leave us a description when you find yours, it will be interesting to see what each Muse looks like!
You can complete these tasks during the entire challenge, and there is no early or combo bonus for them.
- Find the Muse +50pts (it’s enough if it appears in your dream, even as a creature somewhere in the distance)
- Have a conversation with the Muse +50pts
- Bring the Muse back home safely +50pts

Non-lucid dream in which I meet the “space jockey” from the sci-fi horror movie Alien.
I claim the points for:
- See a giant
- See someone who is more than a hundred years old. (The plot of Prometheus implies that he is at least that old, I think).
(I’m not sure if this site would consider it acceptable to link to H. R. Giger’s concept painting for the space jockey … but I know many of you have seen Alien anyway).
Mid-length WILD this morning LINK TO DJ
I am on a stealth / infiltration mission in the jungle
Close to the end, I shrink myself to ant-size, so two people were looking to me as gigantic
I am not sure this counts for “See a giant” / “I am smaller than his hand”
Non-lucid dream in which I swim a river to escape a burning city.
I claim the points for:
- be in a river
Ok thank you!! wasnt sure where to ask so I just picked a random forum but thanks for the info
Im not having any luck with this thing, lol~😂 I’ve had many dreams this week (even lots of lucid ones!) but I can’t seem to remember about the challenge-tasks for the life of me & I keep doing other things while dreaming! 
I don’t know if im going to keep playing, but I’ll still be watching y’all! 
I haven’t been very diligent with my DJ lately, and my circadian rhythm feels like it was thrown out the window of a speeding car and collided with a large gumtree. There has been major bushfires in my area lately, and Iv’e been all over the joint running command centers and coordinating our firefighters. The latest fire was only 10km away from my house, but we have almost got it out, and i’ve been given leave, so I can finally log some tasks!
(I doubt Ill get around to finishing the DJ logs for thease tasks, but i’ll do what I can)
all non-lucid tasks
See a horse. ( two horses with incompetent riders )
Be in the dark
See a rabbit ( we were out hunting, but I didn’t kill it)
Fall down
I had a couple short LDs, but im not counting them.

Tues morning 1st lucid
-find muse
-speak to muse
-swim in a river of chocolate
Tues morning 2nd lucid
-be in a factory
Thurs morning lucid

Non-lucid dream, once more in the universe of Alien/Prometheus.
I claim the points for:
- be in the dark
Non-lucid dream, in which I do the “be in a forest” task.
And another non-lucid dream, in which I do the “fall down” task.
Brief update from my side: loads of WILDs these days, but I am focusing on other lucid challenges’ tasks. Few DILDs after WILDs, too
As far as I can tell, I haven’t completed any new tasks
-> Claiming no points
Do you mean you don’t want to keep score of them, or you just don’t remember how many there were? If you can make an honest and cautious guess I’d be happy to reward you at least some points for them.
And good luck with everything that’s going on!
And wow, a first sign of the Muse! Congratulations on completing two of the challenge tasks Obfusc8
And dreamers, keep going there’s two more weeks to score points! A lot of you are around the 50 points which means the game is quite interesting there
The Quest of Week 4
The Background Story
[i]The Council of Dreams has notified you that the search of you and your fellow Dream Heroes has for the first time seen some progress: there have been signs of the Muse.
‘But how do I know which direction will bring me closer to where the Muse has been seen?’ you ask yourself out loud.
‘I know just the thing for that…’ someone behind you says.
You turn back and see an man with a stick and a hat, who looks a bit crazy and is surrounded by little orange men. ‘Follow me,’ he says with a grin on his face.
He leads you to an elevator with a lot of weird-looking buttons. ‘Where is this one for?’ you ask.
‘Let’s try!’ Willie Wonka says, and pushes the button.
The elevator starts to gain speed, you see the floornumbers rising and ristng, faster and faster. And then… you break trough the ceiling.
The elevator flies so high that you can see the whole of England, Europe even. Then it slowly starts to fall down again.
‘Oops, I forgot we have no brakes!’ Wonka shouts joyfully.
You find yourself approaching the surface of the earth with tremendous speed. Seems you are going to crash right into Italy…

Oh and please let me know before the Grand Finale of next week… who your favourite Winnie the Pooh character is out of Pooh, Piglet, Eeyore, Rabbit, Tigger and Owl.
There isn’t a tiger in Winnie the Pooh. Just Tigger! Tiggers are wonderful things!
(He was always my favourite. )
