I was really hoping to have "one of those" lucids this comp, kind of thing that would get me like 50-100 points, but I guess not this time. Dream 1: I was back at my old school, doing normal stuff when I was having an argument with a classmate over scrambled eggs or something like that. We started fighting about it and then I made fun of everyone before walking out. Dream 2: Todd Howard invented the same machine Michael Raduga did which was able to record dreams. Except this one was able to convert dreams to digital media and the other way around. Kinda like the Brain to Data Machine from ATNRPG. Anyways I was messing with it and it was fun. Actually talked to Raduga in this VRChat like world, but I never got lucid unfortunately.
I'm with a coworker who is describing to a manager how he set up a mock plane in the air in a warehouse to mimic shooting down into targets below. It had all sorts of cables attached to pull it off. Later, I'm doing some assistant work at an airport where I'm waiting for a lady to write down the names of all the passengers. She calls out my name when she's done and I glance over the paper. I find it strange that there are so few names listed, only 20 or so, and that they are written in different colors. Later, I'm with a bunch of people at a little house having a party. It's after everyone's been drinking quite a bit and people start puking. I find my way outside and do the same in some bushes off to the side.
I was vaguely lucid because I got attacked by someone, used a protego (invisible shield/defense) spell and was annoyed by my magic never having visual effects in my dreams and about the need to explain (LARP-like) the effect to the opponent. Other than the lack of any visual effect, the spell worked well though. I even used it to push against the enemy (at that point it worked like an invisible wall without any need for explaining or roleplaying it). I don't know if I was lucid before that or if the use of the spell led to lucidity, either way it was still pretty low lucidity. A short time later, there was a FA. I was recalling the dream and writing notes. I figured out that I was still asleep, got up from the bed and RCed. I wanted to go to DreamPrague library but after getting up and taking a couple of steps, there was nothing urban and I had no visuals. By the time I managed to open my eyes and regain visuals, I was in a completely rural landscape and also alone, no DCs anywhere. For teleporting, I typically need something connecting me to the desired location, something that makes the change more believable (at least some buildings and door to go through or something obviously Prague-like… considering the landscape an urban park would probably work but I didn't get the idea), so I continued walking. The dream was still shaky and not very vivid, at one point, I walked through a young tree as if it wasn't there. For a while, I ran and enjoyed how running felt in my dream body. Then I arrived at a crossroad of two paths, still no buildings in sight. I decided to get some points in another way and looked for something to eat. There was a bush with white and red flowers and I tried both, but they were boring. So I went into a small woodland and looked for mushrooms. I found a nice boletus mushroom and took a bite. It tasted the same way as mushrooms smell in the autumn. I walked out of the forest and saw a huge animal in the distance. It had the head and face of a pug dog and the body of a hippopotamus or a large dinosaur and was as big as an average family house. Looks like fun, I thought and wanted to fight it, maybe jump on it Legolas-style. As I got close to it, I noticed it actually was on wheels and had these sets of huge tires instead of legs. I could easily run between the front legs, even though the tires were bigger than I was because the animal was too big to react to me. It tried to get its back legs together to trap me there and I stopped for a moment to think. Not having any obvious idea what to do next, I woke up.

Autumn Competition 2023 - Night 12 I moving rapidly on what appears tot be an open platform on a train. My awareness raises rapidly and I become lucid. I take in the sights as I rush through a city. Buildings with tan colored bricks are on either side and the train platform starts turning slightly to the left. I begin to consider jump off. I see a young woman with a blue shirt to my right jogging as we continue the turn and head into a suburban area. There are many small one story houses with varying colors and I feel this would be a perfect place to explore. I jump off and begin flying toward some houses, and choose one with brown paint. I fly rapidly and appear in front of it in a split second. The visuals then shift, and it feel as though the houses move rapidly, farther away, then slightly closer. I wake up. Notes: Possibly this area was on the outskirts of The Metropolis

Night 11 …/I turn and cross a door when somebody at my back says: “Here we ‘flay’ because of we f*ck and play”/… I woke up remembering that Night 12 …/I’m in front of the model of a modern large house in the mountains. I’m carefully placing some round transparent reddish covering plastics on the courtyards to protect the next places I’m planning to go. I’m wearing skin colored stockings/…
Went to bed around 11:30PM. Thirst at the Store I'm in a grocery store that looks like Fry's. Something in the store is chasing me, and I am getting ranked based on how well I can evade it. There is something standing on top of one of the pop-box displays. I'm thirsty and start looking for something cold. My girlfriend tells me that there are drinks in the cart, but I want something cold. ... Later I'm in a car outside with my girlfriend. I'm in what looks like the bank's withdrawal/deposit section, mixed with the pickup/dropoff area at the airport. It's dark and lit up by a few artificial lights. I'm paying for a black Buick car by putting money into the tube. The car reminds me of the one my Grandma P drives. Recorded at 5AM. Near the end of sleep cycle 3. Getting to the Bottom I'm at my Grandma P's condo with my sister and my friend D. We're in sitting room by the den playing Super Smash Bros on the Temple stage. There normally isn't a TV in this room. I take D out of the game, and then chase my sister into "the pit" near the bottom of the stage (if you know, you know). I hit her with consecutive Down-A sword attacks as Link and she loses. Then we switch to a different game that my sister choses. The style is cyber-punky, vaguely reminding me of Mortal Kombat. The screen is split vertically into 4, but players can move between the splits to sabotage the others. This game's goal is to get to the bottom the fastest. Recorded at 7AM. Early in sleep cycle 5.

I'm on top of a skyscraper on some kind of contraption set up by some people in the military. It feels scary since I'm so close to the edge so I'm grateful when it's over and I move back away from it. Someone from our group wants to go again through so we wait while the guys set it up again. The guy walks in a very military fashion with straight strides all the way up to the edge, then turns abruptly to follow the edge over to the contraption. Later, I'm at a golf course at the turn. My dad shows up as well and orders one of the strawberry adult beverages they have.
This one was cool kinda New walking dead season came out, but it was god awful. Michonne becomes really bad for some reason and I am in the movie so we shoot at eachother. I kill her, and then we find out that the whole apocalypse is a simulation run by Dale, with thousands of scenarios. Apparently finding him destroyed the whole universe so we time traveled and found him again but brought everyone with to just enjoy normal life. Then I wrote some notepad thing about how terrible the walking dead series was lol
Went to bed around 11:30PM. Romantic Confusion I'm at a park. It is reminiscent of the one where we celebrated my sister's birthday many years ago. I'm with my girlfriend's dad. He is cooking some beef roast on the grill. The meat is a sphere cut into sections and it stands up on its own. Like a mandarin orange. I get the impression that he wants to know about whether I am going to propose to my girlfriend or not. I feel guilty for being unable to answer him yet. There is a medical facility on the edge of the park. It's white, clean, sterile. Like a lab. I'm inside a bar-like section now and I'm with my Uncle J, taking his and a few others' pizza order. There are 3 or 4 styles of pizzas ordered overall and I am struggling to remember it all. To put the order in, I had to travel through the facility, which had indoor and outdoor sections. On the way there I chat with someone about how the layout of this place is stupid, particularly the unfinished outdoor sections. I make it to another bar section, having entirely forgotten about the order, and I have a beer in my hand. My friend H is there. She expresses romantic interest in me but as she is saying it, a drunk person stumbles between us creating a lot of noise. The sound covers her speech, but I still hear it. She pretends the noise prevented me from hearing it. I'm relieved, because I'm not sure how to react. Later a young Asian man, who clearly leads his group of friends, comes over to me. "Dude, did you see how cute she was? You have to say something!" "I have a girlfriend man," I say. He makes an overly animated expression with his hands while making an agitated noise, which I take to mean "You should weigh your options." Later I encounter H in the bathroom, which doesn't make a ton of sense. For some reason, we know we are supposed to mark locations on the urinal with a marker. Recorded around 5:00AM. Near the end of sleep cycle 3.
10.09 I remembered that day 3 or 4 dreams but I was to lazy to wrote them 11.09 Dream #1 I was near to my primary school. I dont know how old nor what grade I was. Unknown man asked me how to enter to the building. As a prank I showed him the longest way. Scenery of the dream changed. I was on first floor of the middle school section (because primary school and middle school was merged) but I don't remember what happened inside. The scenery changed again. I was on ship in cargo hold. Fighting competition was made. Dream #2 I was on bulk carrier. I remember weird long corridor leading to forward of the superstructure. It took my attention and I was staring long time on this corridor. "It always was so long?" I asked myself. I went outside and I checked how the superstructure looks. "It looks pretty normal. Interesting" I told to myself. I went inside and I checked the corridor again and it was still so long. Next I went to upper deck and again I went outside. I was the corridor lead to cargo holds. Also on cargo holds I saw small crane on the starboard side. The crane was facing to aft direction. I saw every detail of that crane. 12.09 In that day I remembered 2 dreams but first I forgot before I made tags and second one I remind in middle of the day. Dream #1 I remember I was on the vessel. One able seman told me that I was moved to another cabin, near deck office. I was worried but curious in the same time because I heard the cabine is very bad for living because it is noisy inside. Fun fact - the vessel was real but that cabine don't exist in reality.
I took a nap to try and get a lucid for the competition and managed to get a DEILD chain. Teleportation Failures (DEILD) 09.11.2023 I am in a home I don't recognize now but in the dream it felt familiar. It is dark inside and I leave my house to find it sunset. For some reason I know my internet friend R lives in the same neighborhood and I start walking to his house. I wake up. I feel myself in the void between dreams so I sit and wait until I know I am feeling my dream body. I get up and nose plug RC and it shows I am in a dream. I am in my childhood bedroom and it is very dark. I want to see Juliana so I run to the living room where theres more space. I put my hand behind me and feel her take mine. When I turn around, however, no one is there. I do this several more times before waking up. I DEILD chain and go back to the living room. I shout, "Jay! Where are you?" I hear her say, "Hey" but when I turn around shes not there. It's very dark which makes the dream unstable. I try again and this time vaguely see her lying on the couch. I tell her to stand up but she doesn't and I wake up. I nose plug again and it's a false awakening. It's still really dark. I realzie I shoud get on with my three step tasks so I summon my Robes of Anorak from behind my back and put them on. I then reach my right hand to my left wrist and try to throw out a HUD. It takes a few tries and focusing on the streams of energy. I say, "Noma Desert" and nothing happens. I wake up. I RC and get up. This time I have a watch on and there is a button I can press to throw up a HUD. This time the holograms are green. I say, "Noma Desert" and the HUD lights up. I snap my fingers and nothing happens. Next DEILD I get a HUD that has mechanical elements reinforcing the holograms. I ask why my attempts didn't work and it says I need to plug it into a usb c charger. I find such a charger plugged into the wall next to me. Sill no success. Another DEILD I find the hologram orange this time like the sand of the Noma desert. I say, "Noma Desert." and ask it to show me where JadeGreen and Manei are and it adjusts. When I snap my fingers I get teleported into space in an asteroid field and get smashed between two asteroids. One last DEILD and I ask the HUD why I got teleported to space. It doesn't answer and I wake up to see light enter my eys. I am awake
Autumn Competition 2023 - Night 10 1. Dragon Wings (LD) I’m looking into what appears to be a downstairs room in the main house of Meadow. I wish I got lucid tonight…why didn’t I get lucid in that last dream. I start to notice the dreamlike quality of the dream. Maybe I can just slide my dream body into the scene… I begin to enter the scene and it my mind snaps into lucidity. I turn and fly through the wall to my left, into the backyard area. It’s a fairly bright scene, and I’m standing out in the daylight. I should focus on some dream goals. I search my memory for what I planned to do. What was the last part of my three step task… did I need to teleport? I phase through the brick wall to my left. I then remember that I need to do a full transformation! I thought I would end up in the void, yet instead I end up in a wide alleyway of sorts, between three story brick buildings, with an area that open up ahead to the right. I walk forward, then shrink down rapidly, morphing into a quadrupedal corporeal form. I begin to imagine myself becoming a mouse, yet quickly shift to imagining a cat transformation. I suddenly remember that I wanted to transform into a small dragon. I fly into the air and my dream body takes the shape of a small dragon. I feel my wings beating against the air. I become curious as to what I look like as I’m flying, so I look at a window on the brick building to my left. I see a small dragon that looks like a toy, with a person walking below it. Neither the dragon nor the person are looking in my direction, however. That’s strange. Then transform into crow form, yet feel as though I have long arms hanging from the from the now airborne form. I land and continue walking to my right. There are many people milling around the busy outdoor area which appears to be a strip mall. I shout: “This is a dream…this is a dream” to ground my awareness. I turn to my right and see escalators up ahead. I head toward them and begin to search my memory for dream goals again, yet the dream fades 2. Midnight Fields (LD) I’m looking into a mirror with an elderly, wizard like figure looking back. He’s not wearing a shirt, and has a fairly long gray beard. Wait…this is a..dream! I turn to my right, look at my hands and say, “This is a dream”. I quickly fly upward into into the neighboring room, ready to start getting some points. I reflect on how I completed the three step, so I can focus on anything at this point. I look around the rectangular room with white walls and begin to think of ways to score points. I decide to head farther into the room, and think of phasing. I simply phase into the wall to teleport. I visualize Uburu Migu and repeat the words, intending to travel there. I suddenly appear in another room, which feels as though it’s the first level floor of the house, and I realize I may have just been in the basement. I see a lamp on a table in front of me which looks antiquated, along with much of the other furniture. I begin exploring the house. I explore several rooms before heading out into the night. The scene is quite dark, with several tall trees looming overhead. I consider dream control for a minute and think of super strength. I see fairly tall pine tree, roughly twelve feet, and head over to it. I rip it out of the ground, transfer it to my right hand, and throw it like a javelin far into the distance, over the roof of the long two story structure to my left. I look around and notice how dim the scene is. I don’t want to risk the scene fading, so I search for light. I see several lights coming from a house to my right. I head toward the lights and head inside. I begin to explore and notice several people toward the back area which appears to be a sitting area next to a bar area connected to a kitchen. I decide to get something to drink. I imagine there will be a hot water machine on the counter and quickly find a fairly large black contraption. I hit a button and a small green light turns on, signaling that it’s ready. I imagine some mugs in the cabinets above, reach up, and grab one. I then imagine some cocoa mix. I start rummaging quickly through the cabinets and find several canisters of white powder. I hurriedly dump some into the mug, add some water and drink. It tastes slightly sweet, yet doesn’t have much flavor. I walk up to a couple of the nearby groups I then decide to go for invisibility. One man is looking right at me, yet I snap, and he looks through me then to the side, oblivious. I walk up to a couple of guys sitting at a round table across from the bar and repeat this process. I snap to come out of invisibility, then begin to ask the guy seated to the left if he knows any dream teachers I could learn from. He begins to ponder, and I take in the incredible vividness of his face. He comes up with an answer, yet I don’t focus very much on following through. I then remember my goal of finding a dragon companion. I imagine one around the corner, yet when I make my way around it, there’s nothing there. I leave this area and try to head to Uburu Migu once again. I walk into a wall, repeat the visualization and phrasing and soon end up in the middle of many fields which extend far in all directions. There is cattle in each field in the middle of the night with a small barnyard structure nearby. There are several large trees, and I can see the faint outline of a far distant galaxy in the night sky. I begin flying, yet want to head out of this area. I head toward a green colored building in the night which is glowing with yellow light. As I fly past, I look into the windows and see several pieces of furntiure as well as decorations which appear to have a Christmas theme. I fly past this one and toward a much larger building in the far distance, slightly to the right. I fly quickly toward the building and phase inside. There are many people sitting around in tall chairs, a large fireplace on the far wall, and dressers behind the people sitting in the tall chairs. I think of phasing into a dresser like Theshire cat mentioned. I find the group very strange and cult-like, and make a comment out loud, finding it amusing at the time. I phase into the far wall to teleport to Uburu Migu once again, and begin moving my arms. I wake up

07.09 - Night 7 …/I get into a new section of the sorter, it’s main purpose is to heal books. Here fall all books that got damaged along the process of distribution. The books this time are modern paperback versions. There’s a book with pink cover on top of one of the piles on the plates. I don’t see it’s going to work, I have my doubts about the process. It’s not my task today anyway, I’m too wide away from my working place where I’m sorting stuff for titles for its placement or something like that. We’re moving to another section of the sorter, we have to board a train. There are people from the design area. The big J is there/… WBTB I succeeded to incubate the dream back again but failed to recognize when it started …/it’s the same new section, there’re other paperback books piled there. I’m leaving the section now and I can see now the creeper of my living room hanging in a precarious way next to the sorter. I’m afraid it’s going to fall, I try to fix it into a better position while the sorter keeps moving. I’m trying to figure out what’s the logic of this new station. Each book has some values, like RPG cards. And they must be placed on their corresponding plate according to those numbers for the machine to take them to their new location or something like that . There’s a guy wearing glasses working on the first plate. He shouldn’t be there handling books because of his task has nothing to do with books. He’s taking the books away from where they should be taken by the machinery. I think to myself: “Now I see why it’s not working”/… 08.09 - Night 8 This time the dream was too abstract to recall a full sequence, I’m moving into thoughts and the scenery changes too fast to recall more …/I see some coworkers, old J is there. They twist and fall into big woks like they’re sort of omelettes. Other stuff turns around and moves on/… 09.09 - Night 9 …/I’m on a train arriving at a train station. I see some cops with dogs doing their job/… …/I see my daughter is watching films In a strange language. I cannot understand what the actors are saying. Look like a live show comedy/… 10.10 - Night 10 No recall, got too few hours of sleep, then must go back to work
Night 9 - WBTB (+2) - Lucid: ..After I woke into an FA, I realized I was in New Jersey for some reason. I realized you can’t just fall asleep at home and wake up an entire 2 states away, so I got lucid (+10). I don’t really remember anything else points-worthy that happened this night. Night 10 - WBTB (+2) - Non-lucid (+1) - Lucid: I heard dream characters around discussing dream control, so I just got lucid (+10) and went outside. I spawned an orb infront of me (+10 advanced summon), and that orb had the power to bring anything into the dream world. I don’t know how I came up with that on the spot, but at least it got me points. Then dream characters asked me to bring things to the dream for them (food ingredients), so I did that (+2 DC interaction, +5 basic summon). I woke up shortly after. ——— Total: 42 points
Went somewhere this weekend so I haven't posted in a bit Dream 1: I was packing to go to St. Louis, was pissed at my roommate for triggering my condition so I went to speedrun SCP Containment Breach to enjoy myself. I got to this weird town that looked nothing like St. Louis where people made fun of me for no reason, so I go to some house where I see this black and white cat that could talk and was really manipulative. Telling us to do stuff in his worship. I refused and he threatened to kill me. I negotiate, when my own cat comes in and they start fighting. I go out and plant some trees and everything's cool. I'm working out when the cat turns into this plant demon that strangled me with vines. I found a gun and tried shooting it but my aim's horrible. Found a wrench instead that I whacked it with and jumped off a balcony before waking up. Dream 2: The zombie apocalypse happened but it wasn’t that bad. We just killed zombies for fun. No threat. I killed like 200. Then I was programming and I decided to join gus fring’s gang. I did bad stuff, and it ended with me on a rooftop cornered by a swat team. I was dead no matter what, but I stole the grenade from a guy's pocket and ran out in front of everyone. Made it back to my house in 2014 where I lived in the basement. Going down, I saw some kid living there and woke up. Dream 3: I watched the Mario Movie 2. It was good, but I have no recall of the occurances. I remember being inspired by the ending so I met up with this drug dealer looking guy that was growing plants in these wooden boxes. Touching them made me experience another plane of existence or something, and I was messing with them until I woke up. Dream 4: I was in the femur breaker room from SCP Containment Breach, playing Starfield on the Steam Deck. Got to some cool point in the main story but woke up.
