I'm definitely going for the living drawing one... it counts if it's a painting, right?

I like rainbow wings for bonus task personally, because we'd get to see them around more often than TotY wings.

I agree with rainbow for Bonus.

For TOTY, I dunno.. is it possible to make it sparkle?

Advanced Task i - Make a drawing of something, then make it pop out of the paper and become alive. (MrPriority)

Looking back, this one reminded me of Kirby 64. I used to be obsessed with that game.

Turns out I'm a dragon! Lake Town, watch out!

Oh, and what's supposed to be "mysterious" about the bus tour? The bus is weird? Nobody knows what the tour is about? If "mystery" is lacking does it still count?

8/31 Fart Failure
9:00am About as soon as I rolled over and went back to sleep I found a pretty nice blonde girl asleep beside me that I didn't know...I reached for her and thought to look at my hands, I didn't know them either and said lucid task's here we go, The easiest to remember was the fart task and a plan formed, Maybe since she's sleeping I can get away with just one little fart but I had to push it out, Instead of a fart a chunk flew out and I started feeling around for it before the girl woke up and found it.. I rolled the poor girl around looking for it and she was whining but I found nothing until finally she said "Who are you?" Then the dream scene changed to peeing on a board washing wood chips off of it and finally I found myself waking up.
Good try but no fart

lololololol... best schema infection ever!

so sorreh..

Did the Basic Task l Last night

There on top of this building is a totally different scenery. It looks like a very clean city; all the walls are white, every facade of every building is homogenous. I rub my hands together, the other rescapees scatter in all directions. I remember my goals. First I want a task of the month. I kind of want to try the drawing one but I feel like it will take too much time, and I've much more demanding stuff to do. A large group of DCs split around me. I remember the farting task. I force a fart out.
"Euhm.. It-it was meee !"
No one cares, they just keep walking.
"Hey that was me," I repeat. Still no reactions
Well, I won't linger on that.

lol Higat, way to keep those wings in the nick of time!

Dewinging tonight

That's a good question. When I first read the task I was thinking of specifically the Scooby Doo mystery van. Could you elaborate on that Percy, P-pl0x

At least I didn't blow out a chunk. I almost claimed it was a SBD but just didn't feel like it really happened.

Wow...I'm scared but I have to face my fears at some point. Going for the fart!

I was attempting the bonus task for the month of September last night, although failed, I will post it anyway.

So the dream started with me at the top of a skyscraper. I figured my best chance of becoming a planet would be in space, and so I did a quick scene change, to then find myself in the midst of pitch blackness, with specs of light in the distance. There was some nearby asteroids, smaller ones, clustered to my right and so I headed for the patch. Based on the space documentaries I've watched (thank you History and Discovery channel), I had a general idea of what would happen.

I started by "getting rid" of my dream body and becoming just a cloud (at least that's how I describe it). After that, I focused on drawing the asteroid cluster toward me into a tight, rotating sphere. Another cluster of nearby asteroids and gaseous clouds had appeared from seemingly no where, and so I drew them into my gravity field (which seemed to be expanding). I was becoming more dense and spherical when a strange, warm sensation washed over my dream body, maybe the planet core?

I had begun gaining considerable size when control started fading. The sphere of molten rock I had worked so hard on became lined with fissures and I felt the dream quickly fading. I attempted to stabilize it, or at least chain it into another one, but I woke up.

Chewnie, I like your method of becoming a planet! I hadn't even though of doing it how they're actually made, haha! You'll get it next time!

I think that rainbow wings for the bonus task is awesome. I would love if Dreamer made new, unique wings for TotY!

Yeah, I had a flying dream last night with my new sparkle wings!

Advanced task ii FAIL

I tried to turn into a rat which is my symbol. I shrunk down and saw whiskers sticking out of my face but woke up b4 I could do anything or confirm I had made the transition.

It made me realize this could be hard to do. If I'm seeing the dream in 3rd person it's not really technically me that changes but in 1st person I can't tell if I actually made the change all the way or not.

Anyone have a suggestion on what angle I should be using to view this dream?

What I did was to make the change in 1st person, then switch to a 3rd-person perspective.

That third person thing leaves a big gray area don't it..
I managed to clone myself in third person perspective by seeing myself with a girl first, Then looking down to see the rest of my third self appear..I pushed him away and pissed on his feet without getting any on me (How is that possible?) As a task I accepted it as a success.
Makes you wonder don't it

Man, I might have to play some goat simulator so I can transform into one in dreams. I really like the tour bus idea! That is awesome. Might try these.

I think that might be the only way to do it...That's going to be rough. I'm really good at making stuff appear and changing my environment but I'm terrible with changing angles/perspectives

August Basic (I) continues to taunt me, and probably will for some time:

9. outdoor jazz piece, bass solo
Outdoors, busy urban location like a downtown store area with lots of people walking around. There is a band setting up to play a piece. I stop and stand nearby to watch. I know that the piece they're playing is a (electric) bass solo piece. The bass player is in front of me across a small space, and the keyboard player is to his left. I can see and read the bass player's sheet music. There is an intro line where he only has one note (quarter note on the first beat?) per measure. Then the solo begins on the second line, lots of triplets of fairly high notes. I see the clef marking is a bass clef symbol and I think this is appropriate because he's the bass player.

The piece begins. I also see his first note is a middle "G" and I hear this note in my head clearly. The note he plays matches this tone. I'm nodding my head to the beat as the musicians play. The bass player glances my way and sees me reading along his music. The keyboard player also glances my way and sees me really into the piece. I think they acknowledge me as a musician, and they may even ask me to come play in their band.

The bass player is actually playing his notes on a keyboard and I think this is a bit odd.

Ooooooh these tasks all sound good, I really want to transform into a tiger .
Ps. I only just realized you could swag up your profile picture and name and stuff , time to swag up .

Mystery Bus ?...Whats the mystery?
I took ride on a mystery train ride once upon a time (back in the day) An excursion train down thru the woods and hills,, When dinner was served (Not bad either) suddenly it was announced that there had been a murder on the train and it was up to the passengers to solve the mystery (with the help of some actors)

Is a "Mystery Bus" the same thing?

I am going to try the Basic Task II.

By "mystery", I just meant whatever location the dreamworld conjures up.
I personally want to get in the bus and see where it takes me, without having a set destination in mind. You can interpret it however you like though.
