Thread: Spellbee's Summer(-ish) Competition 2017

Day 8 8th 8pm - 9th 8pm

+2 WBTB

+.5 fragment (5:25)

+3 Non-Lucid Dreams

1:00 scripted result / Goa'uld
2:35 eclipse shadows / face punch-a-thon / shoot
4:00 waiting for process / standup meeting / lockers


Night total 2 + .5 + 3 = 5.5 points
Contest Total 129 + 5.5 = 134.5 points


Well I woke up and decided to watch some stuff and then go out to buffet planning on the way home to shop at a video store, they ended up having a 3 for 2 sale and so latter I went to another of their stores. I spent like $150+ and wasted entire day on this so not much dreaming or sleep.

At least I am unlikely to have inability to fall asleep or to suffer from sleep think when I do. Guess we'll find out by tomorrow if I get some extra sleep/dream/awareness rebound or not


Best non-lucid moment: definitely punch-a-thon, I just started punching this DC in the face over and over, other DC seemed a bit upset and a few stepped in momentarily to take a face punching of their own I should set new lucid goal, Use DC face as a punching bag

Cool dream effect: during the 70% eclipse here in Sacramento I took a hole punch (regular binder size) and punched like a dozen holes into a plastic bag liner-bottom from a reusable Win-Co bag, it worked great as It cast a dozen Pac-man shadows onto the ground at work. This same effect was in my dream
(I suppose a long time goal has been to notice a shadow in a dream, guess this would qualify, though I was thinking more like a body or hand shadow, not an eclipse punch hole shadow)

Looks like all my SG-1 watching has shown up in my dream again with Goa’uld but really the first and third dreams were lame, the third dream was pretty vivid, but it was a total time wasting dream.

I went to sleep at 8:00p that first day and had consumed much liquid
I didn't turn on my sleep tracker and so don't know when exactly I fell asleep

Guess since hurricane interferes with main post update by spellbee we should just assume same theme and week task for now. Tho technically I think they expire at 8PM on Saturday (a few more min from now for me)

Guess we'll need to check back and see when new ones can be added.

it usually would be a bold update in body and also an update to the initial post.

^ What cooleymd said. There's no way I can update anything, these last few days have been a waking nightmare with preparations. I haven't even bothered to track any of my points, and I doubt I'll be sleeping much for the next 2 days. So yes, everything stays the same as far as challenges and themes and what not. If you've completed them the first week, you can claim them again for the second week (I don't know if anyone has, I've literally not been keeping up with this at all).

Night 7
2 Dreams - 2 Points
DILD - 10 Points
Basic summoning - 5 Points
Teleportation - 10 Points
Fly - 5 Points

Spoiler for briefly told brief lucid:

While lucid I create a door behind me. Trying to enter it the door keeps falling down and I have to keep it steady with my other hand. I open it, close my eyes to help the dream create the new dreamscene. I appear to a landscape which I can't recall anymore. Later I become lucid again and fly around above my home town.

Night 9:

Week 1 Theme (apocalypse): 5 points

Spoiler for Apocalypse dream:

I had a dream where in the middle of it I was supposed to go into a building to survive the moon crashing into earth. I followed Skull Kid from Majora's Mask into a village. The villagers where horribly disfigured and tried to attack me, I think they were infected by something. I looked for this building where I was supposed to take refugee but I ran out of the time and a cut-scene of the moon crashing down played. There was a text box saying some pretty dark stuff about how some people took their own lives so they couldn't experience the end of the world. After that the dream changed perspective to me in my brother's bedroom playing a videogame and the dream continued on for a while after that.
WBTB: 2 points

2 DILDs: 15 points

Dream 1:
Fly: 5 points

Fly (not sure if it counts again since it's a different dream): 5 points

Night total: 51 points

Edit: DJ link.

Got some kinda low lucidity dreams, so I forgot my actual goals and kinda went along with the dream plot. Still working on that DEILD. Also, when I had finished typing the first dream, there was a freaking power outage and I lost it... which is why I only posted this now, since I usually post this pretty early. I had to write the dream again. Next time I'm writing a long dream I will type it in a text editor with an auto-saving function first and them copy it to dreamviews.

So, for the purpose of the contest, do DBZ-Styled energy blasts count under "Unspecified Dream Control" or "Element Manipulation"?
.

I believe in contests past, we have counted them as Element Manipulation.

Gotta specify your Ki Blasts as Energy Manipulation instead of Unpecified Ability, which increases your total by 5 points. And yep, you count points separately for each LD, so you could score flying multiple times in the same night for each LD you've done as such.

EDIT: Eh, you're lowballing your points for the night. I count 46 total with those numbers you've listed above (or 51 with the suggested corrections).

Day 9 9th 8pm - 10th 8pm

+2 WBTB

+8 Non-Lucid Dreams

3:40a incorrect source / reattribution to cause / explanation of reason
5:30a method evaluation / outcome analysis
6:00a dishes / better functionality
7:00a nephew / coding contest / prizes (cars) / directory system / side ponytail / need shower / wandering
8:10a spy organization / surveil counter-surveil / electronic dog leash / talking dog / confrontation meeting
9:15a sibling / desk / skirt / cam fail / 3 complaints / evacuation climb / embrace cam / flyby footage / awesome walls / fire breathing mode
10:30a backyard / phone & camera & binoculars / vision test / childhood wondering / carved desk / coworkers decorate / house sitting / stuck doors / one sided locks / neat vs mess / police
2:20p bogus logs / brother / climbing / problem reduction / thousands of numbers / cigarette holder

Night total 2 + 8 = 10 points
Contest Total 134.5 + 10 = 144.5 points


best dream scene: well runner up would be the awesome walls, but skirt really rose to the occasion

best dream effect: using the dream binoculars made me realize that my vision in the dream was sharper then possible this had me wondering about vision over one’s lifetime, trying to reflect on vision from childhood (perhaps the real answer lies in vision in dreams not being real, but idealized)

near misses: side ponytail, my hair is a bit short for that particular style. talking dog (explanation not necessary). various impossible climbing (sometimes dreams try to disrupt our path by giving us ridiculous ones)

worst scene: police show up where I am house sitting and start investigating stuff (police are a major dream sign, in real life I almost always reality check, in dreams it’s pretty rare)


so far 4 weekend days 1 holiday and 1 vacation day, not looking good (tho I started well)

Night 8
4 D - 4 P

Total 56 + 4 = 60P

Thanks for that, I actually forgot to add induction points for the night. I've also changed ki blasts to energy manipulation now.

night 9
2 NLDs
Total 31

Dream highlights
- something about superman, trying to murder someone, rest is best only a phyciatrist reads about.

ADDING NEW GOAL meet storm Trooper

And yep, you count points separately for each LD, so you could score flying multiple times in the same night for each LD you've done as such.

Wait a minute. You can? I thought that was stacking. My bad.

I read this

"Each task can be completed once per dream/chain.
Advanced versions of tasks earn points*instead*of basic versions, not in addition"

I might have to recheck my points but what does the second statement mean?

Day 10 10th 8pm - 11th 8pm

+2 WBTB

+3 Non-Lucid Dreams

1:10a weird coworker / computer popups gone crazy

Night total 2 + 3 = 5 points
Contest Total 144.5 + 5 = 149.5 points


Offical reset to
Step 1 minor summonation
Step 2 eat something
Step 3 super flight


Most irritating dream segment: damn pop-ups

Dumbest Lucid Miss: I’m in a lucid class and the female professor asks me a question and I say "I'm sure you're a much better lucid dreamer than I am", on my right is a dead relative, on my left some naked guy

Best Dream Food: come on Colonel invent some KFC BBQ ribs

Best new RC: the instructor was demonstrating a brand new lucid reality check, let’s call it 'The Crotch Test' she seemed quite advanced at it he he I have to admit this test would actually work great in dreams, but in real life it could be a problem (also it’s a shame she was such a wizened old woman)


I have posted off tomorrow and possibly one other day (not sure which one for sure, meetings)

here is what it means suppose now that I have reset my steps
I did the following Flew, Summoned, Ate and then: Superflew

it would have been 5+5+(5)+5+(10) but as soon as I Superflew
it would become 0+5+(5)+5+(10)+10+(15) with the first five points struck down
Superfly replacing fly (but with the step points stacking)

of course If I superflew in a seperate lucid dream (I only consider dreams seperate if I wake up and record them then go back to sleep and wake again) it would not replace because of the seperate dream rule (not to mention the +10 for first DILD and +5 for second DILD which would make a wopping 70 points , of course I'll settle for the former scenario and the mere 60 points, hopefully I'll fall asleep soon and make it happen
