Thread: Receive RC via cell or SMS

It is a brilliant idea btw. I have thought of this similar idea but it was to be part of a dream sequence. I put my cell phone on my desk during sleep or daytime and expect it to go off. The dream person is to meet me at a place I designated to be lucid...I know it's complex. I din't think it'll work so I din't use it.....

I think there is an added bonus. While sleeping, in a dream, if you get a call on your cell or a text message, because it has been on your mind all day, that might be a trigger to ask if you are dreaming and consequently becoming lucid.

I'm a freak about phone security. I just hope you aren't giving the numbers to third parties (for cash, obviously). That's the thought that ran into my head, so I might as well be honest about it.

An occasionally beeping wriswatch can serve as a great reminder, too.

Hey Abra,

If I were a telemarketer or trolling lucid dreaming websites for personal data, I probably wouldn't limit the "scheme" to 5 people. And, if I were a data collector, I would be pretty desperate - masquerading as a lucid dream enthusiast.

I have 1 confirmed volunteer for this program already and that's all I need to get started. The more the merrier; but 5 is the limit.

I've tried the wristwatch beep but it usually gets drowned out by whatever I'm absorbed in at the time. I think a voice mail message or text message will stand out a bit more.

Yeah see my problem is that while LDing is great, it doesn't dominate my life enough for me to RC regularly without some reminder.

Wow, this sounds great. I would really like to do this, except that I don't have a text message service on my phone and I would rather not have you leave voicemail because I don't check that. Bummer. If I ever get texting enabled I'll message you.

I will be mostly sending text messages, with the occasional voice mail. I can set up an automated system on Skype to send multiple text messages. I'm still collecting willing participants and will start it in a couple of days. Must do some testing first to make sure the process works.
