Tasks must be completed in order.
Multiple tasks can be completed in one dream, but they can also be completed in separate dreams.
You may change tasks at any time, even if you are on task 2 or 3, as long as your updated task choices are posted before the night you complete them.
If you choose to include an Unspecified Dream Control task, describe your task here in advance.
In addition to receiving points for the Dream Control task, you will also receive bonus points:

• Complete first chosen task - 5 points
• Complete second chosen task - 10 points
• Complete third chosen task - 15 points

• Show your teammate a previous dream (in-dream)* - 10 points

Enemy Tasks

Enemies are opposition members from your own league.
Asterisks* indicate that points can only be claimed for these tasks once during the competition.

• Meet an enemy - 5 points (once per dream/chain)

• Meet another enemy in the same dream/chain - 3 points (once per dream/chain)

• Fight an enemy* - 10 points (+10 points if it is a pillow fight)

Personal Tasks

New Personal Tasks can be completed unlimited times.
You must post the DJ of the task to claim points.
You can change tasks at any time.
You can only have one lucid task or incubation listed at a time.
Must be a task or incubation that you have not completed in a lucid dream before.

• Lucid Task - 15 points
Choose your own task to complete in a lucid dream.

• Incubation Task - 15 points
Choose a person, place, thing, or theme that you want to see in a dream and try to incubate it.

Dream Journal Points

Points will be awarded at the end of the competition for posting comments in other contestants’ Dream Journals. Only DJ entries containing dreams from the competition are included.
Only one comment per DJ entry will earn points (a conversation on the same entry will still count as one.)

• 1 point will be awarded for every 5 DJ comments.

Add these up for yourself as you go. If you don’t understand, I can walk you through it.

This is just a little kick to get people posting in Dream Journals. I feel a lot better about writing in a DJ knowing that people are going to read and comment on it; I am sure others feel like I do. It isn't worth many points because this is a dreaming competition, but it could add a few bonus points to your final score.
When posting comments in a DJ, it is helpful to "like" the entry so that the member will get a notification on DV. You should also “like” any comments on your DJ when you read/respond to them, so that people know you have seen it.
Make sure you read the dreams so you can make a comment with some substance (more than a quick one-word comment.)

Betting!

If you have the points to spend, you can bet up to 5 points each day that you will have a lucid dream that night.
If you do have a lucid dream that night, you will earn 5 points!
If you do not have a lucid dream that night, you must deduct 5 points from your current total score.

This is to get you more confident in your feeling of knowing that you are going to lucid dream. I hear a lot of you say, “I know I am gonna lucid dream tonight!” Well then, bet on it!

Now what?

Post your task choices for each of the following:
Three-Step Task
Personal Goal
Personal Incubation

Keep track of your nightly scores and post your updates/subtotals here when you can.

Have fun everyone, and good luck!

**AnotherDreamer** · 01-23-2015 09:59 AM

Woo! I'm excited, go pirates

Good luck everyone!

**JoannaB** · 01-23-2015 10:21 AM

My three tasks:
Basic Summoning
Eat Something
Teleport

Dream Goal:
Become a Dragon

Dream Incubation:
Taj Mahal

Question: does the dream incubation count even if one does not get lucid, so in my case any dream of the Taj Mahal? Or is being lucid in the incubated dream a must?

This looks like fun!

**FryingMan** · 01-23-2015 10:32 AM

Betting! Sweet, I like that, really focus the energy on a night! (No maximums, though?) Alright Montagues, let's pillow-whack the snot out of the Capulets!

3-steps:
+ interact with a DC
+ fly
+ element manipulation

Personal Goal: edit: Narrate the dream! (was Teleport)

Personal incubation: location: flying high in the sky above San Francisco/GG bridge!

Question: how many points for a *partial* DC transformation?

**LouaiB** · 01-23-2015 12:26 PM

YUS YUS YUS YUS YUS!!

PK now, uhm, 3 step tasks:

1)Flying
2)umspecified power: I have a little power I want to use that I call "blue hands". It's basically making my hands, well, err there's no way of delivering this except straight forward, so, in a nutshell, making my own hands very 'pleasing', like supernaturally pleasing! So it means I can fondle and so on to produce much stronger satisfaction than normally possible to my partner. It needent be blue shine. In fact, it needent shine at all! Just the sensation effect is the point.
3)advanced summoning

Personal lucid task:
Groping boobies *nose bleed*

Personal incubation:
Here's a hard theme to add some challenge: being in a hot tub with Louise from Zero no Tsukaima (and to even make it harder, it has to be night time and in the outside forest like yard or whatever).

I'm all set for a hell of a competition!! I have midyears now though

but it doesn't matter! Nighttime is gonna be reserved!

**FryingMan** · 01-23-2015 01:28 PM

^^ I believe DV now has a new resident "King of the Horn-Dogs"

**LouaiB** · 01-23-2015 02:01 PM

AHHHAHAHAHA I always new I was a sexual beast

Or should I say, a sexual priest, you know, cuz I preach sex as nice, pure, and a truly exceptional heavenly bond between 2 soles? Anyone? No? N...never mind.

Anyways that boobs one is gonna be the first on my comp to do list!! (With interaction and summoning of course )

**KonchogTashi** · 01-23-2015 02:46 PM

On the verge of a glorious competition performance, my recall has vanished!
Nevertheless, here are my tasks:

3 STEP:

1. Interact with a DC.
2. Basic summoning.
3. Pass hand through a solid object.

Personal:
Go to a 1960s/70s Grateful Dead concert

**spellbee2** · 01-23-2015 03:43 PM

Cool, let's hope I can break my lucid dry spell soon so I can rock this competition.

3 Step:
1. Flying
2. Super Strength
3. Mass Telekinesis

Personal:
Clone yourself.

Incubation:
Theme: Legend of Zelda Hyrule Adventure.

**imazu** · 01-23-2015 04:27 PM

Yarrgh!! And such.. lol

Three-Step Task:
- Teleport
- Advanced Flying
- Mass Telekinesis

Personal Task: Eat some CAAKKKEEE!!!!

**FryingMan** · 01-23-2015 04:36 PM

Haha isn't that the truth! I had my probably worst dreaming night in months last night. I hope that means my SC is just cleaning out the system and getting ready for awesomely vivid, long, fascinating, sexy, and lucid dreams for the competition!

**MrPriority** · 01-23-2015 04:50 PM

Oh dear... intermediate?
But... I... whaa? Wait I can't... I don't.. I... I...
I guess I can only say:

Three step Task:
1. Basic Summoning
2. Use an electronic device
3. Mass Telekinesis

Personal task:
Go and watch a hanabi show (fireworks)

Incubation:
A Japanese festival, with people walking in yukata's

Let's shoot for the stars! I haven't done almost any of these things so far, so let's hope for the best! If it doesn't go well I'll just have to make up for it by posting 500 comments a day

And if all fails I'll just gamble myself some points!

Fail-proof plan!

**StaySharp** · 01-23-2015 05:04 PM

Ya forgot to add me in on the middle league.

3 Step Tasks:
Flying
Invulnerability
Full Transformation

Must be a task or incubation that you have not completed in a lucid dream before.

Hm... this makes things definitely more difficult to decide.

Personal Task:
This would've been the World Severing Seal (summoning a circle of pillars from the sky around you), but I managed to summon that a few times as well...
Fire breathing it is then, and not just a little, but rather fire breathing like a dragon.

Personal Incubation:
This would've been my dream alter-ego Ryuuko, but I already got her to appear in my dreams a few times.
Going with the story of the Dreamsphere Chronicles my goal will be to incubate Cardia then, the main city of the dream RPG.

**dolphin** · 01-23-2015 05:19 PM

Yarggh! Let's do this pirates!

3 step tasks
-Teleport
-Fully Phase Through Big Solid Object
-Advanced Summoning

Personal Task
-Full transformation into dolphin

Personal Incubation
-tropical island

BTW, I'm going on vacation to Kauai Monday-Friday of next week! I'll be gone at that time.

**bemistaken** · 01-23-2015 05:25 PM

Oh GOD, I'm scared already! Let's go Stones!

Three Step Task:
1. Flying
2. Push hand through something solid
3. Super speed

Personal Goal:
Telekinesis and Summoning

Personal Incubation:
Not quite sure what this is...but I will come back to it.

P.S. Ok, after reading a little of what dream incubation is...does this mean that I will create a dream? If so, I will incubate that I will be at a Freddie Mercury Queen concert (the Freddie that had the clean cut hair cut and mustache and always wore the white tank top shirt...don't act like you don't know which Freddie I'm talking about

) singing "Bohemian Rhapsody."

**Sensei** · 01-23-2015 05:36 PM

Ah! Sorry staysharp. I double checked through and added all the people to the list. Don't know how I missed ya.

Three step task
Teleport
Change gravity
Advanced object/dc changing

Personal task
Take off an arm and fight with only one arm (sorry canis, I'm gonna get there slowly)

Incubation task
RDC and significant other are now allowed in my dreams, I am gonna see what happens when I incubate them rather than try to stop them from coming into my dreams. Both must be present in dream.

Be mistaken. Incubation is like trying to dream of a specific person place thing or theme. My favorites right now are mine (person), dolphin (place, but a type of place), mrpiority (theme), and spellbee2 (theme).

Incubation threads are kinda rare, but a lot of people have some practice with this throughout the forum. If you need some help lemme know.

**Nfri** · 01-23-2015 06:15 PM

Sensei well done with rules, love it!

My three step task:
mass telekinesis
change gravity
teleport

lucid goal:
bring a song or music from lucid dream to waking

incubation:
Grandma's garden

Good luck guys!
KEEP CALM AND LUCID DREAM,
AND MAINLY HAVE FUN!

**Nightfeather** · 01-23-2015 06:48 PM

3 step tasks:
Eat something
Flying
Change gravity

Personal task:
Walk through a mirror

Incubation:
Floating island(s)

**Sensei** · 01-23-2015 07:24 PM

Also, if you guys need some help fighting us ninjas

Old but good. Back when youtube was still young and people had to host their own videos. Funny enough, looking at the wiki of it, it says "similar to 'ask zorbak' and 'Strong Bad Email'." Apparently something that I was born to like. lol.

**PercyLucid** · 01-23-2015 08:05 PM

Okay!!! Even though I speak fluently pirate (no kiding, my facebook is in English-Pirate!) I am a ninja... so I send this message to all the pirates, in plain pirete for you to get it " ye all troublin' me, so I will cast a kick ye butt and pillege ye bootie so me mateys will fancie it"

Three-Step Tasks
- Advance Flying (I bet Dreamer knew I would pick this one up

)
- Element Manipulation
- Time Control (I figure rewining the dreaming, travel to past/future is also okay?)

Personal Goal:
- Visit a big city at night. Then fly into a cloud, find some lightning bolts and throw them down at the city to provoke a blackout. (It is a dare too, and also controls the elements... I love chaining!)

Personal Incubation:
- Magical Forest

**Ctharlhie** · 01-23-2015 08:37 PM

Three step tasks
Interact with a DC
Eat something
Teleport

Personal Incubation
The RR Diner from Twin Peaks

Personal Goal
Try the RR's famous cherry pie, talk to Dale Cooper

I recently got into Twin Peaks for the first time, it's great for getting into the dream feeling. Highly recommended.

**KestrelKat** · 01-23-2015 10:26 PM

Ooooo, I'm a Capulet!

Let's seeee...

I can't pick my tasks yet, so I will edit this post tonight or tomorrow with my choices!
(Are these choices things we can repeat every night for points or is it a one-time gig? And just so I'm clear, can you complete the tasks, get the points and then pick a new three-part task to try and get more points, and keep your old points?)

**JoannaB** · 01-23-2015 10:40 PM

I am still confused about the timing: the sign up thread said Friday 8pm start, this thead says Saturday 8pm start.
Also here it says the end is on Saturday at 8pm, but Sunday naps count???

**Sensei** · 01-24-2015 12:19 AM

Personal and incubation tasks you do and then when finished, you pick another and go again. 3 step tasks are a one time gig like always. The op said that about Sunday naps because I forgot to edit it out.

in the other thread I also posted that the time had to change to Saturday because of the op being posted late. Everything on this thread is what you should listen to. The old thread is old and decrepit. :p

**Individual** · 01-24-2015 05:36 AM

Super excited for this competition! GO BEATLES

My 3 lucid tasks shall be:
- Interact with a dream character.
- Basic summoning. (I will attempt to pull something out of my pocket)
- Telekinesis.

Personal Goal: Dive off of a great height.

Good luck everyone and happy dreaming!
