Lucidity Challenge 44—Winner: drd

^ I’ll count a crystal for being in the spirit of the task, I suppose. You can give me a second personal goal to attempt for 25 points if you like. Although I think Task 5 should be your main focus, every point counts!

The scores are updated.

In an ND I drew power from something similar to a Chaos Emerald.

^ Aw, I was hoping that tie for second stayed put to see how you two would react when hosting duty fell to second place (assuming drd hasn’t changed his mind, of course). :tongue:

The scores are updated.

Medium LD last night.

I noticed I had green scaly arms, but didn’t get a sense/feeling of how I transformed. I tried to fight a giant LC host but didn’t feel my punch connect with anything because I was losing the scene. Then when I regained lucidity, Thorn was being elusive. Probably because I tried to punch him previously. Sorry Thorn. You were a T-Rex! I thought you could take it!

So no tasks. :sad:

^ Funny story: the first “Team Dream” many LD4all members did, waaaay back in February 2013 before it was part of the LC and had that title, involved everybody meeting each other while turned into dinosaurs. Yes, I was the T. rex, and yes, I actually managed the transformation. I laughed really, really hard when I read that you somehow saw me in that form; nostalgia smacked me upside the head. Are you claiming any points besides the LD length? I’m not sure if you’re considering me charging at you while you take a swing at me a fight, because I wasn’t there to know how you felt about it in the dream (well, real-me wasn’t there), and I’m not sure if you’re claiming points for transforming into anything.

The scores are updated with your medium LD, but not with any other points until I know what’s going on.

EDIT: I was told in IRC that no other points are being claimed.

A message to everybody: with the LC coming to a close, would anybody care to find a time for a group of us to chill on Skype, Mumble, Google Hangouts, or TinyChat and simply talk about how it went? It’d be interesting to hear some feedback, and the info might be useful for the next LC host. We have a few Brits in the LC who probably won’t want to be up late for what would be evening hours in the U.S., so Saturday afternoon U.S. times / evening European times seems like a good fit, but that’s if there’s interest.

:cool: Danke, Mew. :happy:

^ You… finished a task lucidly? About time, dude; congratulations! Now finish more!

The scores are updated. Less than two days remain!

Thanks Thorn. I did write a reply about the points but the interweb gremlins ate it and when I hit back the box had been cleared. Damn gremlins! :alien: I have no idea where the T-Rex thought came from, but I’m glad that it definitely was you and that it brought back memories. :smile:

I have dinner plans on Saturday, which will likely be followed by a few beverages. So I’m not sure what state I will be in for the proposed chat.

2 medium length LD last night, no tasks completed.

You asked, I delivered! :biggrin:

^ Don’t get too cocky. You still need to get 1100 points tonight!

The scores are updated with drd and Scipio’s dreams. One night left! Incubate hard!

Had an LD here that was around 4-5 minutes long making it medium for me. I tried the Gem subtask in combination with the Dragon transformation task but couldn’t trigger the Gems power unfortunately.

^ Sorry the last day of the LC saw you get so close and yet so far. Hopefully you do some fun things on your own before the next LC starts.

The scores are updated. I’ll accept dreams that were had before 2 PM EDT for a bit after deadline, up until I don’t think the results will change anymore due to possible posts. Dream hard!

Long LD followed by a short LD.

In the first, I learnt and used Dark Magic.
In the second, finally completed my personal goal. :colgate:

(MILD is not a new technique for me, but it’s been a while since it was so effective.)

So I’m ending the challenge on a personal high… I’m going to be out for the rest of the day so will miss the final count up and everything tonight.

Thanks Thorn for running an excellent lucid challenge. I thoroughly enjoyed myself, and felt like I got much better at dream control through attempting the tasks.

Medium length LD last night. I attempted to grow, but I got stuck inside the room I was in. No tasks completed.

I made a bridge collapse and briefly turned into a robot with Scipio in a ND last night.

drd, did you consider, well… stepping outside? :tongue:

Congrats to everybody who scored today. Any dreams that were had before this post can still be posted for points. I’ll close the LC entirely late tonight and announce everybody’s final placement. The scores are hidden until that time.

Last minute post! These were both from this morning before the cut off.

Two things.

One, a short LD that involved the host. We had a footrace across the desert, you were in your avatar form. I just ran on the sand, you used a sonic-like track next to me.

One other short LD with no tasks.

Okay, I don’t anticipate anybody else posting points, so without further ado, let’s end this LC!

    Yet again, drd has won the LC! He has the choice of hosting the next LC or splitting/passing hosting duty down to the next participants, and duty will be passed on in this fashion until a host is found.

I don’t have an extravagant closing post for you all. All I can do is reiterate how happy I was to watch people get motivated and succeed and how nice it was to speak to the participants personally while they planned their dream incubations and while I set up tasks. I wish all participants best of luck in their lucid endeavors both in their free time and for the next LC… and I look forward to seeing people finish the subtasks that drew their attention in this LC, even if they’re not worth points anymore. :smile:

I pass.
