Cashing in for a DJ entry, a medium LD (Snowy Mountains Out Back), and dream art from the medium LD.
Saw a whole lot of snow, but not a single snowflake (ski, ice skate, or snowman). Thought I saw an airborne baseball, but couldn’t get close enough to confirm and it took a the form of a dark bird midflight (SC trolling now).
In the top right you’ll see the unidentifiable sphere next to the bird. Below are the DC 's, adults with golf clubs and kids on a sled.

I had read all of the subtasks I didn’t realize that I could claim them if it was a ND and if it was someone elses subtask. (although reading back through the rules I see my mistake) I thought the subtasks we voted for had to be in a LD and our own claimed subtask, and that we could share specialty subtasks. With all the talk of subtasks and subsubtasks I just got really confused on what all I was allowed to claim. Sorry for the confusion!
If it caused too much trouble or broke the rules then don’t give me the Pen and Wedding subtask…
Three normal dreams from last night. In the third one, I changed the emotion of a DC from excited to disappointed. here.
In case you’re wondering why i keep getting 3 NDs, it’s because I set myself a goal to get at least 3 DJ entries per day and it’s working so far. Let’s see if I can keep it up when I boost it up to 4.
I claim the Helicopter subtask for this dream. I run away from police helicopters in the dream. It was an incredibly long a vivid dream! Hope they continue to be this way!
Would have been able to claim the no entry subtask if someone had claimed it sooner!
^ I realised I wrote the wrong thing and LucidWilliams was claiming for a subtask that had been announced ages ago. Whoops, sorry.
But anyway, can I own and claim the wheelchair subtask, even though I had the dream just before reading the subtasks?
Here is my one ND for the day. In which I dreamt of both a pen and a wheelchair. I would also like to claim “Change Emotion of a DC”, because changing the emotion (making my friend feel accepted), is what made the antagonist spirit leave my friend. If that doesn’t count then let me know.
I also drew a map of the dream, because Lia was drawing maps by inspiration of my doing them in paint so now I have to keep up.
^ Btw, I was wondering if this means that if we achieve our personal goal (in LD), that adds to these colour totals. For instance, since mine is violet if I achieve it then I only have to do three other violet tasks to unlock another subtask?
Also, LDbc12 and I were talking and we were wondering:
Wheelchair is still locked. You can still unlock it for later dreams. Please confirm.
“No Entry” is still locked. You can still unlock it for later dreams. Please confirm.
I see no problem. First: if you wrote a DJ then it’s considered an ND. In this challenge, fragments are unclear dreams that cannot even be recorded.
I don’t see any trouble in claiming playing card and dream of. But you need to confirm. Thanks!
Sorry if it made you confused but you were right. Pen and Wedding are valid for non lucid dreams. I always require to post the dream type while claiming. If you tried to claim a subtask with an incorrect dream type I would notify you. No worries!
Only Personal Goals, Monthly Quests and LD Techniques require Lucid Dreams.
You can own it but it will only be valid for later dreams. Please confirm.
Correct!
It is part of the first post of the topic, which states that
Every score is related to a dream. You cannot claim points without a dream.
And yes, the art score goes to the dreamer. Initially I would call it “Dream Royalties” or “Dream Copyright” or “Dream Inspiration” but I was afraid these would sound too complex as well.
The current plan allows you to “hire” external artists to create art of your dreams.
I expected most art would come from the dreamers themselves. If points would go to the artist, it wouldn’t encourage artists who aren’t participating to make art.
I did consider to give points to the artist, but I guess I need to explain why I did not:1. Dream art has fixed points; This means any art would get the same score, regardless of “quality”.
Consider that some prolific artist joins and starts to make art from every dream.
Then the LC winner could be an artist who never had a single dream.
While I have nothing against artists, this is probably not our goal here.
Think about what implies in giving points to the dreamer:1. The dreamer would be encouraged to make art of their own dream.
The dreamer would try to encourage artists to create art from their dream;
The dreamer would improve DJ quality to inspire artists.
Based on these two possibilities I have chosen the second.
I hope this is enough!

It’s in my DJ and I confirm that I am claiming for a playing card sighting.
ahh I call very short NDs fragments, so thanks for clearing that up.
Thanks AreYouMe. It sounded like you did post the ND before and then added a DJ.
I prefer that you keep everything in a single post to make it easier to verify, like you did.
So… due to the LC considering any bits of recorded dream as an NLD… what I consider a fragment (very small bits of dream that are recallable and clarifiable, but don’t really tell much) is considered an NLD and I get points for it… So… I go from 3 dreams to 4 dreams.
Also… I did a couple tasks! In an NLD! Yay! (To clarify, I’m claiming finding my trapped friend in the icy structure and making the DCs laugh near the incinerator in my “Valuable LEGOs” dream.)
Quickly posting from phone, because I just noticed on my Score page, I didn’t get any points for dream art? I thought this was like 6 points, but it says 0? (Also the dream art subtask page doesn’t load and asks you to log in).
And also, I understand your reply to my post, thanks. I’ll take and own Information, the blue subtask. Thanks
Will post dreams when at a computer.
Edit: nvm, I am blind and missed it. But it doesn’t list that I got points from Lia’s RCILD even though they’re counted in the total.
Sunday 23rd July
1 normal dream - task done - change emotion of DC. (Many different emotions were experienced/switched to by both myself and the people in that dream, so I hope one of them will count for the task.)
Monday 24th July
1 normal dream - task done - ride a bicycle
I hope it is okay to do two nights in one post? Should I have done them separately?
