April showers bring May flowers. May flowers bring bees and pollen and OH GOD THE ALLERGIES!

Did you blink? It's already time for another gosh dang lucid competition! If you've never been part of one of my competitions, check out my previous comps here, here, here, here, and/or here to see how it works.

If you are interested in joining:
1. Vote in the above poll to pick which dates work best for you.
2. Reply to this post with:
- What league you would like to join
- Your average rate of lucidity

The rates listed by the leagues are suggestions, but if you're feeling bold, feel free to try a higher league.

I'm putting myself in the Beginner League this time around due to being busy and my terrible lucidity as of late (1 every 2+ weeks).

**lunagoddess** · 04-06-2017 07:29 PM

Yay! Another competition!

League: Beginner
Average Rate of Lucidity: Less than once per week
Availability: 4/14/-4/30 = 4. Otherwise 3

**dolphin** · 04-06-2017 08:49 PM

I would like to join the expert league. I've been averaging around 5-7 LDs/week. My availability is 5 for all dates.

**Cobalt Storm** · 04-07-2017 04:15 AM

I was under a tornado warning today, I recorded audio of close lightning, and now I find this thread? Today just keeps getting better!

Intermediate League
12.2 LDs per month (last 6 months) [Improvement over last time; it was 10.7 then!]
Availability: 4 (3 if it's the first poll option)

I'm pumped. LET'S DO IT

**Saizaphod** · 04-07-2017 08:35 AM

Sswweeeeet! Intermediate league please

Availability 4

**Letaali** · 04-07-2017 09:29 AM

Sai pressured me into joining.

Beginner league, cause I'm terrible.
1 lucid per 3 weeks is my current rate. Absolute trash, if I can be so frank.
Availability is somewhere around 4.13 - 4.20

**KevNice** · 04-07-2017 10:29 AM

Id like to sign up!

Beginner league here too. Availability shouldnt be an issue, as I will be sleeping anyway

Ive only had about 3 lucids in my life, and two of them occurred during this week. So I dont have enough LD data to say how frequent they will be...

Kev

**FryingMan** · 04-07-2017 11:10 AM

Have fun. No point for me to sign up as it will coincide with my month-long dreaming interruption due to jet lag from an international business trip

**AnotherDreamer** · 04-07-2017 11:33 AM

I'll join! I'll be in expert league, I have about 1-3 lds/night,
and I'm about 2-3 busy.

**ExothermReacton** · 04-07-2017 11:52 AM

Here we go again! Going to join the beginner league this time as university is major sleep stealer. Would rate my availability 3. Currently my LD rate is super instable. It can range from 1 LD/2 days to 1 LD/2 weeks. So I wll go with 1 LD/week I guess.

**Nefets** · 04-07-2017 12:31 PM

League: Beginner
Average Rate of Lucidity: Less than once per week
Availability: 2-2.3

**LeaoLouro** · 04-07-2017 02:02 PM

I'll join too! Beginner league since my lucidity rate is 1 LD/week.
Let's see if I have more luck this time. My availability should be 3.5

**Nebulus** · 04-07-2017 02:53 PM

Hi all, I haven't has a lucid that I remember since last competition. Intention clearly is all, in my case. So thanks for the opportunity to get me out of this rut.

**obfusc8** · 04-07-2017 03:17 PM

I've been hosting an LD comp on another site, so my own recall and lucidity has been fluctuating between incredible and non-existent. Good news is, that finishes on the 14th, so perfect timing.

Expert league... 4 or 5 lucids a week roughly
Availability... should be no problem 4+

**JonBingus** · 04-07-2017 04:43 PM

Count me in!

Beginner League
Availability 2/5, I may miss one or two days due to travel.

**cooleymd** · 04-08-2017 04:48 AM

cooleymd intermediate, current rate about 1-2 per week
I still have yet to really find a new place to live and so have voted for sooner
but assuming I a continuous place to live and sleep I should be avaliability 4ish

My new S+ from ResMed has made me lazy and I don't jornal dreams at all,
I just let the danm thing make graphs for me.

Lately I haven't even woken after all but one dream per night
so I need to get back into some more serious effort

Soon I am off to sleep for Lucid 149th total / 144th intentional / 139th since joinging dream views
So I will target 160 total lucid dreams by the end of the competition

hopefully I will have some of them during it and not too many before

**Sivason** · 04-08-2017 05:27 AM

I will sign up.
Put me in expert.

Number of lucids varies wildly. Could be as few as 2 a week, but can also be multiple in a night.
Available 3/5

**JoannaB** · 04-08-2017 12:04 PM

I would like to participate.

I participated in DV competitions years ago. This Is perfect because I seem to have hit a bit of a shrimp and need a boost of more motivation. Prefer sooner, but am flexible on timing.
Beginner
Less than one LD a month
Busy life but I expect to participate every night in the competition

**StaySharp** · 04-08-2017 12:50 PM

Saizaphod was so kind to let me another one is coming and as usual I'd like to sign up. My availability is like a... 3 or so this time.
I've made some serious improvements in my head over the last weeks but my lucidity rate is still abysmal, so beginner it is.

**Raipat** · 04-08-2017 01:35 PM

Please sign me up in the intermediate league. Availability 3
LD count depends on effort and whether I "cheat" with tech and supplements...

**EnricoXVS** · 04-08-2017 05:29 PM

Hello,i don't know my lucid rate since i have done only 9 LDs scattered in different days,
but i suppose i'm new to this forum so put me on Beginner League,
i think i can be available this days
because i installed fastweb's modem today so maybe : 3/5
Anyway i have some questions...
But to win i only need to do more lucid than others?
Or there are other factors in-game?
There are prizes for these competitions?
How you will verify that nobody will cheating,saying that they had lucid dreams in days they didn't?

**KingCobra** · 04-08-2017 05:31 PM

Availability: 5

Most of your questions can be answered by checking out the previous competitions. All the rules are essentially the same. I linked to all the previous comps in my initial post.

There's no prizes that we give - extra motivation for lucidity is its own reward. And everything's on an honor system, we're all just here to have fun anyway.

Welcome to the forum!

1. You get most of the points by doing different things while lucid, but you get points from dreams, fragments, DJ comments and from the lucids themselves too. Even if you don't get any lucids you can still rack up quite a bit of points with regular dream recall. You can check the previous comp threads for details ( previous one ).

Spoiler for Dream control from which you get points for an example:

2. The competitions end with winner celebrations, I think that's the reward

Example 1
Example 2
Example 3 ( Please, more celebrations like this

)

3. We trust each other. Honor system is the very first rule in these competitions. Lucid dreams must be posted too.

If you have any more questions don't hesitate to ask.

**EnricoXVS** · 04-08-2017 06:53 PM

Oh understood i read the other competition anyway i have other two questions :
i should assign the total points of my dreams using ur method or someone will judge my dream and assign me my points?
But isn't a deprivation of freedom the fact that if we do the things u said we gain more points?
Boh i think i will follow only few objectives u said then i will do my tasks
