Thread: Lucid Task For The Month Of April 2005

Cool, really cool!

I used to skydive 10 years ago but stopped due to the costs. It's really a amazing experience!!!

Until I discovered LD skydiving was the most strong and marvelous felling that I had in my life; now it's LD. :-)

I cheated and did it last month. Oh well rank hath its privs!
It was pretty realistic, well I guess it was since I've never done it in real life

Can I play with my DS while doing it?

What's with the Nintendo fixation? Since you can play with those in real life, why would you want to waste time doing it in a lucid dream?

Now, if you want to be IN a video game, that's another matter entirely.

Oh well, I guess the screen name should have given me a clue.

Because the games that I like are so easy that they are for sissies! I can adjust the difficulty level really high in a LD, so I do so. Also, I can make up my own games as I go! Maybe while I am sky diving, I can play sky-diver!

Well ... Ill give this a try even though I have only had one lucid dream haha... hopefully I'll have another one within the next month

I never sky dived in real life but hey I'll give it a shot, although because I can't fly in dreams, this is going to wake me up, but oh well.

oh parachute well I'll try tonight, because its a free night (no school) and the week after next, because no school.

Yeyy my idea. Woohoo. Anyway, I also suggested either jumping out of a plane or jumping off a really high building (in case you have trouble finding your way onto a lucid airplane hehe). Also to complete the task I think you should have to freefall, and then parachute all the way to the ground...what say yee.

Nina, this is a great idea but I don't think I've ever been in an airplane in a dream (lucid or non).

Seeker, could we use the suggestion of jumping off a high building (or maybe a cliff), freefalling and then parachuting all the way to the ground?
I think I might have a chance at completing it then..

PUHLEEEEZ!!!

ive been in a few video games in my LDs, its pretty sweet.

The best one was a dinosaur riding game

HA, you reminded me of a stupid non-lucid dream i had one time..

i dreamt i was play "everquest", *this was back when i was a huge EQ fan*, and I dreamed I got to level 60, and when I wake up im all excited, and it takes me a minute to relize it didnt really happen

COOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL ^

Ill try this im just a beginner and after 3 days have had 5 lds

Well I'm not sure if I completed the task or not, seeing as how I parachuted out of a window instead of out of an airplane hehe. Anyway...I became lucid and decided to try the task. Before I could even THINK about an airplane I was standing in the window of this huge castle looking down onto a courtyard. I jumped and pulled this white scarf cord like thing and this huge white blanket/parachute floated me down...oh yeah I totally fell when I hit the ground. But it was fun anyway.

Now why the hell was it so hard for me to do March's task...holy crap...I think I tried to do that last night and I still couldn't talk to a damn dolphin. I'm not going to give up on that one.

I hope that base jumping counts. I turned this playground equipment into a skyscraper then teleported to the top. Of course, then, I parachuted to the bottom. I free fell for most of the way, but I did open my parachute and floated to the ground. If base jumping doesn't count, then I'll probably get it done tonight anyways.

Shoot! I tried it last night, I even jumped out of the plane & had my Parachutte & DS, but I started to fly instead of opening my parachutte . I hope to have better luck tonight!

Holy shit ... I know you guys may be a bit skeptical since I'm new to this but please believe this.

I had my 2nd LD ever last night but it was pretty lame. (Low realism and lasted like 30 seconds) ... buuut then I tried MILD right after I wrote it down and I had ANOTHER LD!! To summarize: I got fired from a rental store for stealing and my dad witnessed me telling off my managers. I ran away to the side of the building and looked down a hill. I knew that if I could jump and float a bit, I was dreaming. I did and proceeded to fly straight up. I swooped back down over the rental shop and yelled "Fuuuuck you guys!".

It was at this moment in the air that I remembered the LD task of the month. (I did set an intention before sleeping to do this!) MY first problem was an airplane but I just closed my eyes and imagined being in one. It worked! and the door was already open for me. I jumped out and had the most exhilirating feeling. I plummeted through thin clouds while feeling and hearing the air rush by. I deployed a parachute and was amazed at the land below me. I could see the small tops of buildings in some coastal city. Off to the distance was a mountain range.

I began to get impatient and cut the ropes. I plummeted fairly close to the Earth and deployed another chute. I don't know if this qualifies for this LD Task because I woke up before landing on the ground ... ... but I was DAAAAMN close.

That might be a bit risky for a reality check. Just in case you happen to be awake

Yeah, but being stupid enough to think that it's a good RC in the first place is a good sign that you're dreaming.

Don't be so sure that was the result of my own insufficiency. I was already 95% sure due to the strange context of the dream. It was just the final act of assurance.

<----NIOCE! Thanks Seeker! ahaha ... every noob has their day

Ya! I finally did it Saturday night!, but I don't post on Sundays.
I jumped off an airplane w/a parachute & my DS. I opened my parachute, then I started playing Fire Emblem! After I finished my dream-made board, I landed on the ground, & made my parachute disappear. Then I ran to my dream journal, but still knew I was dreaming. That was so cool. A better way to play Nintendo in a dream!

I hereby announce that as part of me trying out a new technique for LDing (worked 2 out of 2 times so far) I will attempt to enter a LD and complete this month's task in two days, Thursday night. Wish me luck

Luck, WIcked!!

And please tell us about your new technique. The dry-speel guys are hungry for new and effective techniques :-)

And congratulations to your "signa-movie". It's awesome!! :-)

Thanks!

Yeah, well, this technique is actually a brand of subconscious suggestion. Before going to sleep I simply DEMANDED to have a LD this night from my subconsciousness, as a compensation for the hard day I was having. Both times I tried it so far, it worked like a charm. To increase the chances of a LD I also thought of LDing and remember earlier LDs I had while lying in bed, just to be sure it works.

And about the sig: I know it's awesome! But right now for some reason it doesn't show, so I removed it for the time being (damn geocities!!) Also, it should be obvious that I didn't actually create it... credit to the awesome guy who did, whoever that might be (I'm always nervous about accidently taking credit for stuff I didn't do)

EDIT: Sig is visible again thanks to ImageShack!
