Short LD last night, no tasks.
Lucidity Challenge 54 Winner DTDownUnder!
In an ND here this morning, I heard the sound of a Sniper Rifle gun shot that featured some very realistic environmental reverberation properties.
In a ND I was using the restroom when I wondered if I was dreaming, but never became lucid.
Points claimed:
Wondered if I was dreaming.
Double Post 
Anyways, 1 short LD & 1 medium LD. Nothing of importance happened in them though. Just couldn’t focus on tasks last night I guess.
Points Claimed:
1 Short LD
1 Medium LD
A medium LD for me back on the 17th. I have been really busy with the local bushfires and haven’t had time to sleep, let alone post on the forum.
(LINK TO DJ)
In this LD I swam in a dam, and a dam is pretty much a lake. So I will claim Swim in the lake
I also completed the monthly quest .
Also, has anyone else noticed that the LC host, Susan_Y, hasn’t been online for over ten days? At the time I am writing this Susan_Y was last online 11 March.
Could this be a problem for the LC? This is my first LC so i’m not 100% sure of how all of this works.
I had a very brief moment of lucidity this morning.
It’s become almost a ritual at this point for LC hosts to suddenly disappear due to real-life events. The LC Curse seems to be gaining strength…
I have a medium LD to claim.

I had a medium-length LD this morning with no tasks done.
I claim points for one short DILD, one medium DILD and asked myself if dreaming in an ND (LINK TO DJ) (still have to write last ND in DJ, do it ASAP)
No tasks done, unfortunately…
Sorry for the abrupt disappearance of your host! I was stuck down ill.
The next week’s tasks will be posted soon.
Week 2 - The Modern Painters
You stand by the cathedral of Notre Dame, watching the sunset. After the sun has gone down, you make your way through the flower market, which is just closing for the evening. You catch sight of a guy buying a bunch of flowers for a blonde girl. Crossing over the bridge to the bank of the Seine, you make your way down an alleyway, and then descend the stairs to a basement café. A woman in a formal waitress dress greets you, and informs you that it is a private party. You reach into your pocket and pull out an invitation card, signed “Pablo Picasso”. You wonder if you might be able to sell it later.
The waitress is holding a bottle of a green liqueur. “Would you like some absinthe?” Nearby is a table with special glasses, spoons, and a bowl of sugar. “It tastes better if you add some sugar…” You decide to pass on the absinthe. Picasso is already drunk, and is delivering his opinions on Henri Rousseau. “The guy can’t even draw! I mean, that looks nothing like a tiger.” “But , in your own work…” “When I do it, it’s a stylization. I could draw like Raphael if I wanted to…” You decide it might be safest not to get drawn into that argument, and look around for someone else to talk to.
Tasks for this week:
- Make an art work in your dream. (e.g. drawing, painting, sculpture) - 30 points
- See a famous Parisian landmark (e.g the Eiffel Tower) - 10 points
- Meet a famous artist (they don’t have to be French, or from the rough historical period implied by the introduction) - 20 points
– Ask them a question and get an answer - +20 points - See a field of sunflowers - 10 points
- See a pond with water lillies - 10 points
- Visit a French café - 10 points
– Have a drink in the café - +20 points - See a ballet dancer - 10 points
Sorry about that Susan, welcome back !
Yet another medium LD… I’m doing terrible this month.

Wow I m gonna claim points today! 
2 Longest Lucid dream evers at 1am and 6am both around 1hour! 
I am also claiming points for the Monthly Quest and for my personal quest! 
I did also go to a campfire sing a song of Teri Pratchett I went in a french cafe I did drink a café there. THen I went to see a ballet with water lillies on stage!
Of course the dream did last for a long time so I haven t only done LC tasks!
But I can also remember that at some point I have seen the main Character from Mrs Doubtfire who I asked what day it was:
She answered me it was the first of April!
Here is the link for my DJ Link
PS: So of course I m not claiming points for anything above but I did at some points hear some sounds tonight as robots were invading our planet (a bit like walking dead style). So claiming points for this.
Claiming points for playing an outdoor sport game.
I played ultimate Frisbee (for those who don’t know, it is frisbee in team of 7 vs 7, and the rules are a bit like baseball, you do passes and get behind the lines.)
I also remember I was in France at some points but no points to claim…
@Cornelia, I think i m doing even worth than you. No LD since the first week…
Doing awful here without WILD
Too few LD through DILD alone, and those few are very short and I cannot manage to do anything 
At least it is quite even like that with nobody else reaching 100 points 
Imagine how alone you would have played with WILDs 
Don’t worry, next time you can go full power again and I m sure Obfusc8 will be a nice opponent for you!
A short LD here… I’m really hoping my lack of luciding skills recently is due to Senior-year-of-Undergraduate-degree stress…

Week 3 - Egypt
You hold up your painting to take a final look at it. “Not bad”, you think to yourself, “even if Picasso hated it,” You take it into a little art gallery on the Left Bank. After some haggling, you sell it for enough Francs to just about cover the cost of the expresso you had yesterday at a pavement café. Searching further inspiration, you wander the streets until you end up by the Palais du Louvre. Stepping inside, you find yourself in the Egyptology section. You marvel at the wonders of Ancient Egypt, and the sheer engineering aptitude shown by Napoleon’s armies in looting antiquities that were quite so large and difficult to transport.
A woman walks up to you. She is dark skinned, barefoot, and wearing a shift dress that is somewhat revealing by the standards of early twentieth century Paris. She offers you a drink in a golden cup. It is some kind of cocktail, with a flower it: a lotus flower; and heated wine. Looking around, you start to suspect that you are no longer in Paris…
This week’s tasks:
- Sell an art work (e.g to a dealer, or to a collector) - 20 points
- Wear historical costume from Ancient Egypt - 30 points.
The Ancient Egyptian civilization lasted a long time, with different clothing styles, and I will even allow Ancient Greek or Roman clothing (c.f. Greek Egypt; Mark Anthony and Cleopatra), There have been a number of movies set in Ancient Egypt, some of them not entirely historically accurate in costume; for this task, I’ll accept anything from movie versions of Ancient Egypt, e.g. Theda Bara in The Egyptian, Elizabeth Taylor in Cleopatra). There’s plenty of strange outfits for male characters too…
- See a pyramid from the outside - 10 points
- See a pyramid from the inside - 20 points
- See an Egyptian God or Goddess (e.g. the dog-headed Anubis, the lion-headed Sekhmet, etc). - 30 points
- See a lotus flower. (This task can be combined with Claude Monet’s water lilies from Week 2).
- Sail on a barge on the river Nile - 30 points. (I’ll accept it as a task completion if your on a modern-day vessel as a tourist in present-day Egypt. I’ll also accept it as a task completion if your on some kind of river, but it isn’t clear whether it’s the Nile or not.)
- See writing in Egyptian Hieroglyphs - 30 points.
