lol licking your fingers...I should try that one :p
Good start to the competition!
And btw thanks for the score sheet, it's the bomb!

I snorted at the horse fragment.

Nice, you racked up a lot of points!

I usually ignore dream characters as well when becoming lucid. Sometimes it is interesting to interact with them and sometimes they are just so trivial and unimportant.
When I fly my problem is usually to control where I am going. The direction is correct but I fail to get slower again and crash into some bushes. So thankful that it isn't painful in dreams.

Hi spellbee2,

Nice turnaround and empowerment adventure. The elevator bit was full of creepy torment. I think that one of the main values of being able to LD is to turn around a nightmare like you did. Just think if we could eventually turn around all of our nightmares or even get rid of them altogether in true dream warrior fashion. It would have a deep and positive impact on the waking state as well.

Interesting DJ entry.

Wow, what a butt-head you were with D:

A lot of sneaking and stealth in that dreams. I like it!

The Ant-man glove is a pretty creative solution for that. I should try that as well.

Would have been awesome if you had managed to get into the Sonic level.
The blinking part was really cool. I have trouble with teleportation, so I'm definitely going to try that next time I become lucid.

Fallout is fun to dream about. If I start dreaming up Fallout Shelter I'll be cranky, though!

He starts explaining that the device generates an infinitely strong gravitational field, and will destroy the world within a matter of minutes.

"Blah blah tech explanation blah blah destroy the world—"

"Wait, what was that last part?"

Good job on the dreams!

I love the nonspecific nerd convention and how you started a nerd chant.

You should revisit that dystopia in your lucids and fix their society!

I love the current story about the dystopia. Amazing!

Haha, glad you like it. My dreams are usually quite a mixed bag like that. Dream-me is a real dork sometimes.

And yeah, in real life I wouldn't have wasted those animal crackers, but I wasn't thinking straight in that dream.

Holy crap. I'm pretty sure this is one of, if not THE, most entertaining DJs I've ever read. It has drama, comedy & suspense/horror! Thank you for this and congrats on having so much fun!

P.S.: I am extremely jealous of the frosted animal crackers, and disappointed in you for not eating them!!

I did notice that summoning the fire felt incredibly natural for me, so maybe it did, even though it had been a while since I watched the video.

Also, for anyone curious, the original video:

Cool. Good job on the Firebending!

I wonder if the Youtube video you saw influenced your success in the dream at all...

Yeah! Even see if you can make up the joke in the LD.

I wish so too. I remember saying something about Legos, though I'm not sure how that would've been that funny.

I should make that a dream goal though, tell a DC a joke I came up with, and then try to remember it long enough to write it down after I wake up.

Haha, I would love it if you remembered the jokes you told.

Haha boycotting winter, there have been times that I had wished I could do that. That's really cool how determined you were to do the cartoon hole task, and you didn't even seem to get frustrated! I totally get frustrated when stuff I'm trying doesn't work, and that can be quite counter productive.

Do you often dream of video game stuff?

And you found Vi! Yayyy. Does she disappear a lot like that? You could hold her hand if you want her to stay with you, that works pretty well for me. I look forward to reading more of your dreams!

Ob_New_Car_1: Texture missing. Are you freaking kidding me? My brain is missing texture files now? I fiddled with it some more until I woke up.

I knew I should’ve gotten Android.

Nice

I've used a Portal gun once or twice for short distances, but never for changing dream scene. It does make sense that since my subconscious already likes video games, why not use it to my advantage?

Not to the extent that I am in my dreams, but yeah sometimes. We've had a bunch of snow and sleet over the past month at my college in Virginia, so all the sidewalks were covered in ice. I don't think I made it to class once without slipping and sliding at least a little.

I'm not exactly a dream interpretation guru, but I'm kind of a perfectionist IWL, so I spend a lot of time focusing on my mistakes during the day. So at night, I kind of expect something to go wrong when trying new things in dreams. It's definitely an insecurity thing, but maybe more experience in lucids will help improve my confidence.
