      Task of the Month for July 2015



      NEW: Do you have a Task of the Month suggestion that you would love to get chosen?
      Now you have the chance to suggest new tasks of the month by clicking the
      Future Task of the Month Suggestion Thread.
      If you complete a current TOTM, you will be able to vote on suggestions for the next month!


      Introduction:
      This topic is for the Lucid Tasks that are assigned by the Lucid Task Club and the On-Topic Administrator. Please attempt any or all of these tasks throughout the month.

      Report back in this thread, even if you didn't successfully accomplish the task. Your efforts should make interesting reading! This is required in order to get credit, it is no longer sufficient just to say that you did it.

      When you complete a task: go to your control panel, then to permission groups, and request to be in the group that applies to the task that you've done: either a basic or an advanced or both (specify in the description field if it was the bonus task). Of course you still need to post the dream here because we check.


      Whoever completes any of these tasks gets the following goodies until the end of the month:
      • Your name will be displayed in ORANGE in the online members list at the bottom of the main forum page.
      • You will receive a special title and badge.
      • You will receive access to the "Lucid Task Club" which is a limited access forum for people that complete a lucid task each month. Members of this club can vote for submitted suggestions for the next month's tasks. Access to the Lucid Task Club will also grant you early access to the next month's tasks, giving you a 2-3 day window to keep your wings for the following month.

      Tasks for this month:

      Basic Task i - Plant a mysterious seed and see what grows! (RavenOfShadow)
      Basic Task ii - Find a 5-star restaurant and eat the food there. (AnotherDreamer)

      Advanced Task i - Clone yourself, and then do something to/with your clone. Bonus if you can get both perspectives at the same time. (spellbee2)
      Advanced Task ii - Have a conversation with something inanimate that doesn't normally produce sound (no phones, stereos, etc.) Books, tables, bottles, and toilets are acceptable. (ThreeCat)

      BONUS TASK!! - Dive into a painting and explore a world made entirely of paint. (Dreamer)

      Have fun...

      This month I won't be able to do the Bonus, sadly. since this is something I did already, but to inspire all of you, here is that awesome dream, where I had to dive into a painting (you can scroll to the Mona Lisa to read the portrait part)

      No reason you can't do it again! A different painting—not to mention a different dream—will surely give a completely fresh experience. If you want to raise the stakes, try it with an abstract painting!

      Agreed. Different dreams are sure to bring about different results and experiences. I'd say give it another go!

      As for the rest, a lot of good tasks this month. Cloning myself has been something I've wanted to do for a while now (hence why I suggested it), and I always love me some dream food - it's always fat free! If I'm feeling adventurous, I might give the bonus a shot. Especially if the painting in question is "Dogs Playing Poker".

      I hope I find some surreal paintings gallery right on the corner. Definitively one painting won't be enough for me.

      I'm really into the mysterious seed and advanced task with the inanimate object. Can't wait to read some of those conversations....

      I don't think I've ever talked to an object in my dreams before. I did get yelled at by a porcupine once and attacked by a filing cabnit but....eh... who hasn't?

      Good luck everyone!

      I was really hoping for the planet task, but paintings are cool... maybe next month?

      That one will start with a head start next month, make sure to vote it again so it is 2 votes already. If enough people vote it to be the most voted, it will happen!

      I tried the advanced cloning task, but it seems I was having an off day with my dream control...
      All of my attempts to summon myself failed: looking behind me, holding my hand behind my back, spinning, transforming another DC into me.
      The closest I came was leaving my own body like a ghost, but I still felt partially shackled to my body so I couldn't fully turn around to see myself.
      I gave up on that task and went flying instead, and ate some cotton candy clouds to console myself.
      I thought about having a conversation with a cloud for the other advanced task, but I woke up before I could.

      Cloning myself sounds amusing but scary at the same time.... MUST TRY

      I'm really into the tasks of this month!

      Looks like a good month for TOTM, and now that I've broken my month-long dry spell I'll start work on incubating these...

      [Shrugs] I s'pose I'll do Basic 1 and Advanced 1, since they seem to be the harder ones. Perhaps if I get back into the habit of practising mine induction techniques, I'll have better success than I did last month.

      That reminds me of a short called,"Randy the Vegetarian Zombie" (Short) Starring, voice actress Tara Strong.

      Two epic fails last night!!!

      First one, got lucid while having a panoramic view of some buildings under construction which I wanted to take a photo and thought that being lucid was all the task to be done in spite of I saw myself wearing women clothes carrying a purse....

      The second one, got lucid after a FA in my grand parents house, went down stairs using some doors on the floor until I remembered I've already done that task and thought that I must climb a raimbow in stead, thinking about it as it was a tree, but left that for another time because I was getting into dark closed places. Thought perhaps I could find a door out but irremediably woke up some minutes before the alarm wife, I mean clock, and couldn't get back for more that I was easily visualizing a strange seed on my hand...

      Inadvertently got lucid last night and although I could barely remember anything about waking life, such as where or when I might have fallen asleep, luckily I was able to recall a couple of the new TOTMs, and completed Advanced Task i. Full dream here: Kissing Clones (DILD).

      Cloning myself was unexpectedly easy, but then things got freaky!
