Thread: Task of the month for July 2010

Wow... I really did it ! haha !
Well, I'll write how it was here, since I don't have a dream journal on the forum, only the one by Banhurt on my PC, and I write them in Portuguese instead of English (since it's my mother language). Hope you guys understand.

Lucid Non-lucid Commentary
So, I have woke up in some point of the night, and couldn't sleep right on. I began to think about lucid dreaming, like I usually do.
At some point, I fell on the sleep. I don't know if it was a false awakening, probably was, since I didn't used techniques like FILD and didn't knew I was dreaming.

I was at my room, standing up, I did the nose-pinch RC (like always), I could barely breath, just a bit (my real-head should be against the pillow or something), it triggered nothing. So, I look at my computer's screen, it was showing some movie or something with a car, then I tought: "Wait... I never go to sleep with my computer on. I always turn it off." - Then it hit me - I was dreaming, I began to someway float. My first impulse was get out flying through the window, I opened it and could see the others roofs like the normal view I would have, when I was preparing to jump, I remembered what I wanted to do, I remembered the ToTM.
So, I come back to my room, see the door, get through it and goes at my house's corridor.
Since I am a fan of the Naruto series, I had the perfect way to make my clones, hehe.
I stand and shout: "Kagebunshin no justu" - Then, another two of me appears, with a sound like "Puf'', hehe. They were standing at my sides, one at each side, they moved to the wall in front of me and both stood there, looking at me. I do it again, other two appears, and I count four of me. And, I do it again. Now it was six! They were all on the aligned on the wall, static and looking at me.
I was like ''mission acomplished'', and woke up.
I'm pretty sure I had another lucid this night (probably totalize two), but I can't remember, I think it was a very short one, otherwise I would remember.

Now I know about this, I'm going to try even harder ^^
Wish me luck!

I'll give it a shot. Going to sleep with a bunch of phones in my room. A good majority of all of my lucids have started in my room. My goal is to talk to Billy Mays about OxiClean. xD

I will report back success or failure within 10 days.

Here's my EPIC PHAIL:

I am in a forest in the Northwestern U.S. I am sawing my arm, but it turns into a log. A huge arm-log. I saw the log. The log squirts blood. 'HAHAHA I DID THE TASK OF THE MONTH. I MADE A LOG SQUIRT BLOOD!' HAHAHAHA I WIN. I AM THE MOST ADVANCED LUCID DREAMER ON THE PLANET.

Absinthe, The Green Fairy appears. "You idiot. You just drank some absinthe at the Club Nexus. Don't you remember. This is a hallucination in a dream."

"I am DREEEEEEEEEEEEEAMING!" I scream. I fly into the sky, and make the clouds turn into ice cream. I eat the ice cream with a bunch of cows. It feels weird. Not the ice cream, but eating it with flying cows.

The cows have a weird sky game of a sport like football using cowpies. Monkeys ride on the cows' backs, trying to fling poo into a goal.

I start laughing my ass off, and rolling around in the sky.

I wake up in the Biodome, and hit myself in the head.

Hahaha, nice one, Nomad

Oh god. HAHAHAHA !

@ Nomad: that one had me ROTFLOL!

Fail, why would I make it make a log squirt blood?

Man, it's been over a year since I've been on this site. I was feeling nostalgic, so I attempted the task and got it on my third night!

I was in a playground on the side of the road when I realized I was dreaming. I remembered the basic task and asked someone nearby if I could borrow their cellphone. I've noticed that DCs have literally everything in their pockets, and he unsurprisingly handed me his cellphone (in hindsight, I should have asked for a cloning machine for the advanced task). I called a friend of mine by hitting random numbers without looking at them -- I knew looking at the numbers would just confuse me and I would never dial the correct one. She picked up after the third ring, talked in a voice that was definitely hers but a bit higher in register, as if she were 8 years old. I asked if she wanted to come over and hang out, but she politely declined.

I tried calling another friend, but I looked at the numbers on the phone and got confused trying to dial the correct sequence. Then I found the actual number on a paper slip nearby, but I had lost some lucidity at this point and thought that if I actually DID call her, she would come over in real life and it would be awkward. So I typed in wrong numbers on purpose. She never picked up.

Task of the Month: Multiplying

I am a great minotaur walking in Hell, my Kingdom Hell, where I am Devil and King. "More Lazers" by edIT is playing.

I survey the scene. Death, destruction, fire, torment. I smile. Tortured souls. These fools have no idea they can leave any time. They just feel too damn guilty.

I dance to the beat, and morph my colors. I become pale white with a purplish tint. I have violet lightning bolts down the side of my body. I morph into a lava minotaur. I have an impossibly huge morning star in one hand, and a small round shield in the other. I leap on top of a car wreck.

"WHICH ONE OF YOU TORTURED SOULS WANTS TO BE FREE FROM HELL?"

They all bitch, "Oh, we deserve to be here."

"That's right, you idiots. So, who wants to be tortured to they can get out of here earlier? A few raise their hands. "

Dream Diverge

Dream 1

"Psh. None of you are worth it." I am just going to dance!

I dance to the music. I feel a surge of dark energy come up from the ground. I channel it into my symbiote. He gets too strong. I try to multiply and toss myself out, but my symbiote keeps my copy stuck to me. He's almost completely covering both.

You bastard! Get off!

My symbiote makes a whiny angry sound. I realize he's getting too strong.

I am going to shove you up the ass end of a black hole if you don't GTFFFF.

He crawls into my mouth. THAT'S IT!

I change my body into a swarm of flying fire minotaurs, then yellow jackets. I burn off some of his excess energy, but he keeps acting like a punk. We battle.

He is a big black blob of ooze. He galumphs at me. I morph into a winged fire tiger. I charge at him. He tries to consume me. I become a swarm of fire tigers. He becomes a swarm of blobs. I become like mist. I am too small for him. Thousands of tiny tiny copies. I am too much for him.

He turns into a big hollow ball. I morph into a giant washcloth, and absorb him. Then, I summon a giant sink, and a DC maid. She wrings me out in the sink, and his excess dark energy goes down the drain which is a tiny portal to a black hole.

Then he turns into a blob-dog. I am in a Mega Man Battle Network game. I pat his head, and see I have a bunch of strange cards in my hand.

***

I choose one of them. It's a man who killed me and my family in a past life. His name is Brian.

Oh, you. You actually do deserve to be here. You deserve no forgiveness. You will be in infinite torment if I can help it. I am the Devil, after all.

His eyes bug out of his head in pure fear. I chain him to a wooden post. Sweat pours down his naked body. I draw my morning star back, BAM. I crush his torso. I cough and collapse to the ground. Blood pours out of my mouth.

"You idiot, that's you."

Tears of blood pour from my eyes.

"You did all you can, Nomad. Stop torturing yourself. This is a new lifetime."

I had my first lucid last night: it was ten seconds of pure hyperventilation! If I manage to maintain my lucidity in another dream before the end of the month I'll try to call someone...it would be my first ToTM!

It's good you have your first one. I remember you asking for advice.

Write the task on your dream journal, so you don't forget it.

Wish luck.

I started having lucids regularly now so I might try to call someone if I remember.But then to me it's more important to find my dream guide

I'll be doing this tonight. Although there are only a few days left in the month, it isn't the first time I've smashed an LD challenge in one shot.

Wish me the best

Good luck!

Had a lucid dream today. My plan was to pull my reflection from mirror. But it got harder than I thought...I passed my arms in the mirror, grabbed another person's arms...Then I said to myself:''It is my clone!!''
I then pulled, but my clone was pulling as well!!! And when I stoped, he stoped...Then I pulled again but he did pull too!!
I think I will have to try another way...

Oh now, oh well, you still got time. Pulling reflections out are hard, we did that for the task once, I had trouble doing it too.

Miss me, anyone? ANYONE?? :'(

I had a complete lucid shutdown this month, but I am getting back on track. Percy, nice going, my friend. You completed the ToTM in a roundabout of 21 hours. Well, I'll see you in August. And I will be doing WBTB + MILD all day so you better give it your best. ^_^

I accept your challenge!!!
See you in the field!!!

Well, I phailed this month. Might give it a try next month. xD

Dude... It's the 25th still... you have 6 whole nights still... about 8 chances per night... you still have 48 chances to complete it plus naps if any. (From today you will have a minimum of 48 dreams, but probably it will be more)

Do not give up! You might get a surprise... stay focused. You are racing the calendar... not other users, so completing this on the night of the 30th to the 31st is an accomplishment as well.
