And The Rules.

There will be lucid points, and task points. Let me explain lucid points first.
Lucid points are simply given based on how lucid a player gets during the night. The possible amounts of general points that can be earned are as follows:

You have a normal dream without ever considering you are dreaming = 0 points
You consider you may be dreaming at least once in the dream, but don’t get lucid = 10 points
You realize you are dreaming, but wake up in under approximately 10 seconds of your realization = 20 points
You realize you are dreaming and have a lucid dream that lasts over approximately 10 seconds = 30 points

Now, here is the fun part. Each day of the round, the Task maker comes up with a task for the players to complete in their dreams. Now, each task has several different amounts of points that can be earned, depending on the task and how well the player completed it. For example:
Task: Fly to Tahiti in your dream tonight.
Succeed in flying, but don’t get to Tahiti = 20 points
Get to Tahiti, but not by flying = 30 points
Fly, and see Tahiti ahead of you but never actually reach it = 35 points
Make it to Tahiti by flying = 40 points

The points from completing the task and your lucid points will be added up to make your full score. Also, when you post your dream, also post the score you think you got, to make it easier for the task maker. If you complete the task without becoming lucid, unlikely as that may be, you will still get your task points.

You can also score points by completing tasks that were assigned on previous days, so long as they were assigned during the current round, however, there will be an additional 10 points for completing a task the night it was assigned… And yes, you can complete more than one task in one night, and if you do so, you will be rewarded the total of the scores of each of those, minus ten points. If the task assigned that night is included with the others, you will not get your ten point bonus, but will still have ten points subtracted.

This is added to the rules, the challenge is for everyone who wants to increase the ability to LD and explore them in a different way, this is not made to win. Everyone are welcome to join until the host closes the signup and the challenge starts.

Good^^ 10 people.
Then I’ll post the first task now, and for you information ignore the rule about minus ten point I’m not going to use that rule.
IT’s going to be 7 tasks during 2 weeks, so every other day and new task will appear that you can try your luck in.
Remember even NDs can give you points if you do the task and you can get points for being Lucid even if you are not doing the task. have fun everyone.
The deadline will be at 18:00 GMT, so if you want your bonuspoints for doing the task at the right time, you must post the dream before that.

The deadline for Task 1 will be at 18:00 GMT friday 3 july 2009 and at the same time the second task will be posted.

[b]

Task 1 is: Talk to the Wall[/b]
Well, it doesn’t need to be a wall but the important thing is
that it isn’t anything alive like animals or humans or something like that.

The points:
remember to talk to the object but no response from the object= 5 points.
talking to the object and getting a short reply from it= 10 points.
Having a conversation with the object= 20 points.

Suggestions on what to talk about:
Ask the object what it likes most with being a “wall”.*
Ask it what it dislikes most with being a “wall”.*
Ask it about it’s opinion on humans.

*“Wall” is here only being used as an example.

14

if anyone wants to take my place, be welcome. i forgot, I can dream, but i won’t be able to type up dreams :meh:

15

what time is 18:00 GMT? how do i convert that?- i’m in california PST time zone…

16

well, this post is posted at approximately 17:30 GMT

17

This is gonna be interesting, the only trouble is that I find it hard to talk to walls :razz:

18

Did the first task :cool:
Spoke to a spoon first but I think this was still in my hypnagogic phase, so I didn’t count it as a LD. It was a funny conversation though :smile: Later at night I became really lucid and had a conversation with a camera. I first used it as a GPS, because GPS’s talk more easily than cameras :tongue: We quarreled about directions and then I asked him a couple of questions from the suggestions. You can find the results in my DJ!

19

I did get an LD (I try to jump down into the screen :razz: but fail…)

Entire dream found here :tongue:

20

I did manage to talk to a wall in my dream, but the wall didn’t respond :sad: . Here is the lucid part of the dream:
I realize that I must be dreaming, and I walk out of my room and into the hallway. I perform the breathing reality check to confirm this. I walk down the hallway and into the living room. It is pitch black. I try to turn on the lights, but they don’t work. I try to make the sun rise, but that also doesn’t work. I remember the task from the challenge, and attempt to talk to the wall. I greet it by saying, “Hello”. The wall doesn’t respond, and the dream fades out.

The rest of the Dream is in my Dream Journal
