After PM confirmation, Catt and I are partners for Task 2!
Okay, between IRC, the group document, and this topic, I have:
squoak/LDbc12
Ecila6/Lumessence
ian1/IkranMakto
catt/paual
Yev/HeadInTheClouds
Koharo/BrandonBoss
James_UK2008/Thorn
Faith42/Loah
Some noted interests that aren’t confirmed pairs yet (A–>B means A has asked B):
Scipio–>Mew151
Scipio–>Siiw
Note that I won’t agree to partner with anybody until tomorrow, since I only just opened myself up as an option to compensate for our now odd number of participants. I need to give people a chance to see changes before I act on them.
HeadInTheClouds and I have agreed to be partners, as noted in the group doc.
Got it, Yev!
Also, I forgot to run the script today! I’ll give an extra day to those that went to bed before I ran it.
hey Scipio, guess what we didn’t do today because I have no long-term memory
snog?
no, FiXato

LC participants, in your next LD, you should give your DCs superpowers while in an elementary school and in the form of an anime character with awesome hair!
I forgot to run the idea script for a random LC task
Still not reasonable, but more coherent than before! 30 points to anybody that manages this before the next script task goes up (or two entries from now if you were asleep before this one happened).
…
You know I’m all over this… How is this not reasonable?
Though I suppose the real trick will indeed be empowering someone, as my lack of ability to do so is fairly clear in my last LD.
Also, medium should be fine for that last LD.
Koharo, regarding this dream journal entry that we discussed in IRC, I can’t give points for the hook because you already did that task and didn’t meet the repeat condition. You still got points for the LD and regaining lucidity, though. The second dream has no issues and earned points just as you expected, plus 3 creativity points for reaching into a computer screen for your object, which was interesting.
Scores are updated. Wow, it’s close!
[color=olive] Haha yeah I read that one. That was priceless sounds like a plot my brother Yos would write for my character, and don’t sweat it Lumessence I understand.
Although I too think it would’ve been an interesting fight seeing how I refuse to fight the opposite gender. If anything I would refrain from my usual brute melee style and resort to alternative methods/tactics.[/color]
One FLD today
I wondered if I was dreaming today, nothing else.
Slept 5 hours last night. Had an awesome fight, but no lucids. I’ll have the fight posted when I post my lucids from my nap later.
Also! Me and Koharo are teamed up.
Had two short LDs last night. In the second one, I think I came sorta close to completing the task:

Wondered if I was dreaming in this morning’s dream. I realize now I should have just done an RC, and I probably would have become lucid… I wish I’d have remembered!!
@Yev
I hate when that happens. You are like “I wonder if this is a dream… I wish there was some way to check. I will just continue playing pinball in space.” Wake up
That is only a step away from lucid though, so you should always think of it as a good thing.
Loah, while you asked me this in PM, it’s a question that’s come up multiple times, so I’m going to answer it here. Regarding the sign-up information beyond the personal goal:
The information beyond the personal goal is going to be used for Task 2, and thus won’t mean anything until Tuesday. If you finish one early while trying to do Task 1, you’re welcome to change it if you let me know (and for anybody partnered up, let your partner know as well), but it won’t be worth anything until it’s done in the context of Task 2. I’m not sure if the confusion stems from me wording things funny or if people are just so used to the idea of the sign-ups having only personal goals that they’re already claiming these things for points, but I apologize either way.
IkranMakto, Yev, and LDbc12, you all only got 5 points, but as I’ve been saying, it beats having none!
BrandonBoss, I got the same confirmation from Koharo last night. Having the 1st and 2nd place people together had better make everybody else step up his/her game!
ian1, I was laughing while reading your second LD, but I genuinely feel bad that it didn’t work out for you. You realized early on that you could use Task 1 for your personal goal (as can almost everybody!) and acted upon that today, so take 3 creativity points for the attempt. As a NiGHTS fan, I genuinely want to see you succeed; if IkranMakto hadn’t partnered with you yesterday, then since I needed to enter the partnerships thanks to an odd number of people, I would have asked you (as well as a few others).
Today’s script idea for [color=green]30 points[/color]:
!ideaLC
LC participants, in your next LD, you should not-so-spontaneously combust while in a beehive and in the form of a plant!
Lumessence, as it was all one dream, you get the medium LD points and not the FLD points. Cool that you got the script task done! As your method was in line with Task 1, I can also give creativity points. Since you pictured me as an uncaring, ADHD-diagnosed jerk, you can have about negative six thousand of them; I’m pretty chill and actually helpful in other people’s LDs. In all seriousness, though, take positive 5.
No no, you misunderstand…
You weren’t being a jerk, or evil. You were jumping around like a child that was just handed a bag of candy they love. It didn’t appear that anyone was getting hurt, more like static’d. There didn’t seem to be any damage being done. Hence the no effect when you shot me. At least that is the impression I got. I think it was more for show than anything else.
I thought it was pretty humorous. At least it had me laughing when I woke up.
I never tend to see people I know in dreams as being jerks. They usually have a playful or teasing personality.
Also… It just occured to me. The ring did empower me to give you the power… So I did experience it’s effect. If that counts…
BrandonBoss, not much to say about those LDs, but they’re graded!
Score are updated. For those of you that haven’t picked partners, please have it done by Tuesday!
