Side note - On the night before lastâs , I completed the monthly quest in a very long LD, (well long for me atleast). My DJ can be seen here. Although, I have yet to receive a response about getting my wings, I thought I would link it here for the LC points.
@drd - Yep they caught up, but youâre well ahead again after that point dump. Only one problem - itâs âtalkâ your way past a guard rather than sneak⊠close but no cigar.
@Jer - Quality long lucid there and grats on the Monthly Quest & earning your wings.
Is a medieval town enough for RUINS? The town was built from stone for the most parts. No electricity. There was magic, portals leading to hell and stuff.
The future New York doesnât qualify for the âruinsâ subtask, because itâs modern, but the pre-Columbian ruins that the pirates are using as a fort qualifies for the subtask, I think.
I make that a task completion of âruinsâ and âmeet a time-traveller.â Possibly also a completion of the âtravel in timeâ subtask, though I wonât claim the points for that as the special effects for that bit werenât very clear.
âOne time, when I was at summer campâŠâ (Not as X-rated as Alyson Hanniganâs band camp story in American Pie). I claim points for the age transformation. Near miss on the âswim underwaterâ task, but I wasnât completely underwater in the pool.
I see it as a miss thatâs near or close to a hit, but I agree, language doesnât make sense at all. Which is quite exciting I find
I was in a strategy-based computer game (Age of Empires 2 - the only game I play right now ), first from a 3rd person-perspective, later as a villager.
I walked around different opponents, who were all representing different civilizations. Claiming the exploring an ancient civ task here.
I hadnât noticed! Thatâs surprising news. And, hereâs a tentative point claim.
I⊠âmetâ some ghosts in an NLD this morning⊠more like I was harassed a lot by them. I didnât actually talk with them or anything so Iâm not certain that itâs worth points for the QUANTUM LEAP task. Still, Iâm mentioning it here just to see what you say.
I tried to incubate the ruins task, and I ended up in an abandoned building, that Jewâs hid in during the holocaust. It was eerie and abandoned.
Unfortunately I think I might of just missed this one⊠Itâs history but not ancient history⊠electricity existed so technically they are not ancient ruins.
I did however do some time travel in the same ND. Iâll paraphrase, since it was a little disturbing⊠click at own risk.
SPOILER - Click to view
While I was in the abandoned apartment building I decided to crawl under the bed when all of a sudden I felt myself traveling through time. Everything was suddenly in perspective⊠It was the 1940âs, and I was beside a young jewish girl, hiding under the bed. I was no longer in the present, as I could see the feet of other Jewâs walking around from underneath the bed. I also saw Nazi boots, walk into the room and everything was suddenly in a panic. The German in the Nazi boots was dragging screaming people across the floor and out of the room. I wasnât discovered because I was under the bed. After everyone was gone (and presumably dead) I started to freak out because I didnât know how to get back to present day.
Hopefully this counts as time travel atleast.
Anyways, Back to bed for me.
2 short LDâs
the first chained three times, the second chained twice
attempt on personal task, didnt made it through, highly unstable dreams.
since they were chained i did have the quite unique experience of the transference into the dream, and willed my entry into it a couple of times. an experience i will make well sure to remember, a sensation of sparkles around the body as the action is being willed, would say something in some way similar to goose bumps but thats the only verbal comparison we have available in our language that is near description, it is not the same experience, probably an experience which is yet to be put into words.
fun stuff ^^
i Know! i like to play around with words myself, finding out where they came from, ever wondered where the word dream came from?
seems to me you were told not to be afraid but you did get afraid so you got some glass dowels right in your ears boy!
why glass i wonder? transparency?
crap, i take it your Jewish? or did you happen to catch a movie about it?
how was the experience itself of moving back in time for you?
Nope! Iâm not Jewish myself. I was just reading a french book about the holocaust earlier that day so it kind of transferred into my dreams a bit.
As for the experience of time travel, it was very odd. I stayed in the same position, under the bed, the whole time, but things started to fade in like the Jewish people themselves. Everything looked a little more ânewâ too⊠like the floorboards had holes in them and were damaged in â2015â, but in â1940âsâ the holes were gone and they looked only slightly used. The dream remained stable during this whole experience too so it was quite cool to see a part of history reenacted around me.
I had a pretty good morning today, although itâs not enough to get me to first place. Here are two LDs. The first is a medium-length one in which I shrink and play with a body of water as well as de-age myself, and the second is a short LD with no tasks.
Non-lucid dream in which I encountered Ariel, from Disneyâs The Little Mermaid. I think that counts for the âencounter an aquatic creatureâ subtask.
