Thread: Task for the Month of August 2008

i dont quite understand whats required for the advanced task... i mean can you give me a few examples of something that is intangible?

:S

You have to eat something that's abstract. For example, you can pick up the ball and find a way to eat the colour out of it. Not the ball itself, or even the paint on the ball, just the colour.

I have a feeling that this will be a fascinating task to read. What the members can come up with is usually awesome, I want to watch as they wrap their heads around how to do this.

do we have to physically eat it as in chew and swallow or can we absorb it or something?

Now you're just screwing with our heads. This is gonna be very interesting.

You can absorb it somehow if you wish.

Oh and to Dizko that idea is awesome

Wow, I seriously can't wait to start reading what you guys come up with for this one.

I had been planning out how I'd complete the advanced task for a while, but I hadn't been able to remember any goals in my lucid dreams. However, after focusing more on remembering the tasks, last night I was able to become lucid, and remember the tasks of the month.

As part of a previous, non-lucid dream, I was traveling through a large building. Near the entrance, it was an aviation museum, with a huge room containing many antique aircraft being restored. As I continued past that section, into one that seemed something like a small mall, I realized I was dreaming, and left behind the people I had been traveling with, entering a section of the building that resembled someone's home.

I remembered the tasks clearly, and decided to do the advanced task, as I'd planned. I had figured that light would count as intangible, so I quickly located a lamp, and tried to move the brightest point of light out from the bulb. Nothing happened at first, but soon the light began to move to the side of the lightbulb. It slipped through the glass and began to float towards me, and I grabbed it.

It felt hard and spherical in my hand, like a gumball, but when I ate it, I couldn't feel it, only taste it. It had sort of a warm buttery taste, with a harsh chemical aftertaste.

After that, I only remember bits of the rest of the dream. I tried to play a guitar, and was unable to make anything resembling music. I was not surprised, because I've never known how to play the guitar while awake either.

One area of the building I was going to walk through was dark, so to light the area I tried grabbing a candle flame the same way I had got the light earlier, but I moved too fast and it went out.

I remembered ninja9578's suggestions for how to complete the advanced task, and tried to eat the color of a black cordless phone. It didn't seem to work, but a little while afterwards, when I looked at the phone, it had turned white.

I don't remember anything else from that dream after that, so I suspect that's when I lost lucidity.

You ate light? Awesome! Sounds like it tasted really weird. You'll get gold wings in a few days.

Maybe you were unable to eat the black because you took physics and know that black is the absence of colour, not a colour itself

i will eat my dreams.

i've been gone a while but i am going to try the advanced task and as i said earlier i will try to eat my dreams somehow.wish me luck i have a feeling this is going to be very strange.

Aww so close =[

I almost ate the evil out of a giant half man/half scorpion thing.

Woke up too soon >_>

Wow.

Everyone's getting a head start!

Oh I thought I would lose my wings every month until I completed the task. Is that not how it works?

Hmm, I'm going to have to see Alex Grey for the basic task.

Yea thats how it should work but the mods and admins are probably slacking off at some kind of booze party.

Just give them some time to sober up.

Attempted but not completed

It started in my house. I was lucid from the beginning, but at a low level of lucidity. I went outside and remembered the task of the month.
I thought 'lets try eating the evil out of a monster'. I imagined a monster coming out of my house, and it did. It was a cool looking - half man, half scorpian thing, bearing a weapon in each arm.
It was so powerful looking that i thought "sheesh, if i dont eat the evil out of this thing, im gonna have problems."

This doubt caused my lucidity and power to weaken and i woke up before i could eat his evil..ness...evilness.

I got an idea as to how I can eat a color.

Imagine the beach ball. Now imagine the colors seperating from it and now the beach ball has turned into shades of gray. See the colors floating in the air. Grab your favorite color and eat it.

I'm gonna give it a shot. If I had to predict, it would be like a certain food that color. Like red would taste like red lifesavers, etc.

I wonder if a soul counts <.<

So you know the storyline of the demon kidsm, still on that planet blah blah, so I decided to see how the kids were doing via some clairvoyance, they were being chased (again) so I got a little angry and went to find the man that were ordering that thing to happen, tough before doing that, I wanted to try something and do a "normal" RC, and as so I was checking to find something illogical, and while I was on that, I found that I got into a self created world.

It was me in my house, actually, in front of it, it was the same scenario I do everyday, the only dif thing was that there was "sam" my iguana, so I was like "lets play with myself" and as so, I went to get what my brain desired, the iguana, he bited me, so I interpreted it as "thinking it was my fault that he left" so I took some time to play with him, around 2 hours of playing "ya some little time <.<" and after that I woke up and went back to my previous dream.

So once I was there, I teleported to the house of the crazy demon killer, and found him, a puppet master (how convenient for me) he tried to kill me, but since I was using my teleportation shield, any tangible attack would be useless for him, and when he tried to make me his puppet, it didn't work, so he got scared and went down to a place filled with puppets (-.-) and then said "haha, if I can't use you to kill you I will use those!" The puppets were alive, and he had a variety of humans/monsters, then he took a hat and used it to call a clown that was behind him, then directed the clown to me, as signal of trying to attack me, so I took the clown and ate its soul (I was really pissed so didn't care at the momment) it was extremly sweet, so I didn't like it, then the other guy got even more scared and was begging for his life, good thing I was angry, so I ate his soul too, it was a little more balanced, so I had no complaings, apparently that broke the spell on the puppets, but many died the momment it was released, so I resurrected them and left. (woke up) No longer angry yay!

And another question... does anime count as art?

I have never been lucid before ever and im 17, so these both will be very hard for me xD
