Yeah, wouldn't that be considerably easier and less likely to put stress on you to do an LD every night to place a new password?

But if he wants to do it this way, then I'd agree with Sageous that he shouldn't post the password at all, because it's unnecessary.

It might be interesting to do another experiment run by someone else in which one doesn't post the password, or in which one posts the list of passwords (or password) at the end. We could compare results and findings.

I'm kind of interested in my choice of words for passwords and how they will affect you. Let's suppose I choose a concept or object as the password, but you've never encountered it in real life. Even if you *do* see the password object in plain view, how would you describe the password?

At the same time, I don't want to choose an object or concept that is too familiar, for that would be an easy password to guess, even without using shared dreaming.

I don't think this is a good idea, as it over complicates things. We want to prove whether or not the information can be shared or not, period. Interpreting objects is going a bit too far.

Let's keep it simple. Nice and easy.

You get lucid -> Navigate to the Cathedral -> Enter the Cathedral -> Place the password, written on dream paper, near the altar.

Optionally, you can also tell the DC's in the Cathedral to remember the password.

Well yeah but, for example Rubik's cube was a bit different in the sense that there are two words: Rubik, and Cube. You can still make a "one word" password without it being easy.

Shrimp,
Plasma,
Aptitude,
Remembrance,

etc.

And yeah, where is hathor28 now to prove shared dreaming?
