Thread: shared dreaming- AN EXPERIMENT

right- according to many accounts, some recent, some from the manuscripts of dream yoga, shared dreaming is possible. Now, I don't believe strongly in it's existence or non existence, but it would sure be amazing to see that it works.
It probably won't, however before dismissing something outright I will at least give it a shot. A scientific-ish test. It will be simple- here is me:




if you ever see me in a dream, ask me for "the winrar password", if I appear nonlucid/weird/etc try to make me lucid and repeat the question.

This is a password for a protected Winrar-archive that contains a single txt file with a message. it's located here

Perhaps the only way to cheat this experiment is by using a rar password cracking utility, but I implore you not to do this- even if you provide me the message inside I will be very skeptical and ask for detailed accounts of the dream.

This is probably a wild goose chase, however there's still this small part of me that believes in santa

ADDITIONAL: post a picture of yourself so if I recognize you in the dream I can tell you the password

EDIT: Also, for there to be any sort of validity, say if you provide the password yet I do not recall having any lucid dream where I give it this will of course be invalid and I will restart the contest by changing the password and message, and you will be excluded from the experiment (I realize that in the unlikely event of the dream occurring yet me not remembering it this would be most unfair but I want as much scrutiny as possible).
Also in the event that you do meet me, or something similar looking and I don't give the password, still post it, yet if possible leave out an important detail or two about the encounter- if we then both agree that this occurred then this could also have some validity, especially if I'm able to complete the missing pieces.
Also, I know that in the unlikely event of this succeeding, I will only have convinced maybe myself and the other dreamer involved that this is possible, and this could easily look like some hoax/forum joke to others. Don't accept anything till you have experienced it for yourselves. I do not have an observation lab full of natural LD-ers and MRI's and scientists and stuff so this should do for now.

Also, download the passworded file now so you don't think I changed it later
