non-lucid

D1 - I am in Victorian London, and it is very grim, most of the dream is in darkness or lamplight.
I have been assigned some kind of mission or am trying to infiltrate a gang. They are smuggling something and I have to pass myself off as one of the gang. I have to contact someone called major major secretly (my daughter is currently reading catch-22, lol)
We are hold up under an archway and then a passageway that leads underground, eventually I come up in the front of a shop where there are two white folders holding secret documents in the front of the shop window, which is old fashioned bottle glass.
The dream then repeats itself. each time I try to complete the mission but either the folders are not there as it is the wrong time for them to appear and I loiter to long and am arrested by the constabulary or I am found out by the gang.

D2 - I am in a student area, we are sitting at tables practising playing instruments and singing. A tourist arrives and starts bugging me, he has a microphone that opens like a Russian doll into smaller ones.
I leave to go horse riding but there is someone annoying there so I use some kind of whip to lasso them off their horse.

Super in depth fantasy world, but no details come to mind.

Xenoverse 2 Beta

In this dream I was playing the Open Beta for Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2

Black Ops 3: Modded Lobby

I was playing Black Ops 3 on Nuk3town, the whole enemy team was modders, I remember killing one of them and they stretched out across the screen and their model was Yellow like Cheese. The chick I killed was Outrider. They won, the winner's circle wasn't by the Blue Car on the map it was in front of some brown cardboard like thing and the characters Ruin, Outrider and someone else's models were up closer than normal.

See you tomorrow, maybe. I forgot my Dreams from 8/7/16 sorry about that.

Spellbee's Summer Lucid Competition 2016 - Entry 10

Fairly salty at today's results, including forgetting an entire DILD, not to mention all the trouble I had sleeping. Still, I did initiate two WILDs, one of which was chained into the other one. There's also some trash fragment later on as well.

Scrap Group 1
An entire DILD gone missing when I first woke up very early in my sleep (stupid random waking thoughts...). Highly certain this included interactions with at least two upper tier Team Instinct members, among a bunch of other stuff. That's gonna cost me big points...

WBTB that unintentionally lasted for an hour and a half.


Dream 1 - WILD At Work

WILD transition. The visuals were blurred. I find myself at my old job, working the register. It was fairly busy.

My awareness drifted as I was attending the first customer, but I slowly realize my state. Even then, I preoccupied myself with the sale, all to see if I'd remembered how to get transactions done on that machine. I fumble and mess around a bit. The customer, frustrated, yells at me. I tell them to calm the hell down.

The dream ends shortly afterwards. I return to a WILD state within a five minute interval.

Dream 2 - Summer Lucid Competition - Day 10

A familiar dizzying sensation marks a successful WILD in bed.

The air from the AC suddenly turns into frigid wind. This reminded me of a previous dream where my dream guide, E was responsible for blowing as much. So, I looked around and called to her. Suddenly, the ghostly moan of a woman echoed in the gusts. I tried getting my (presumed) guide's attention, both verbally, and through a Codec call, but ultimately, I got neither a response nor found anyone around.

Afterwards, I floated around for a bit. This movement was a bit slow and unresponsive. I then fall backwards on the floor and phased right through. From there, I found myself in complete darkness, the area too dim to see whether I was actually downstairs, or in the void. I'd just remembered that previous phasing won't count for points. So, I kicked upwards, and in an instant, I was in my room again.

Hovered around a bit more before I thought to exit through the window. But, I misaim my trajectory, and slam myself headfirst into the wall. What's worse, my eyes were forced shut against my will. Still, I do end up outside, given the sunlight I saw glaring through my eyelids and felt on my skin. Several familiar voices sounded in the distance. These were of Rick and Morty, who were making some banter.

I'm yanked back in bed, and the dream ends immediately afterwards.

Scrap Group 1
Some random celebrity gossip trivia crap.

First dream

It was a cold night. With group of people we entered some abandoned mine shafts. Looking down an elevator shaft we saw fires raging on the bottom of the mine. Suddenly we've been teleported to some kind of beach, from which we went aboard a yacht. There was a heavy storm on the sea and it thrown an enormous, black shark aborad. We've all hidden on the lower deck, while the shark was hunting on the top. One woman from the group was unable to hide with us and had to escape from jaws of the black shark.

Second dream

I was in school, at english lesson. It was in my current school with current classmates, though teachers were from previous one. The lesson was boring, everyone was repeating and writing down some words. I couldn't find the right page in my book, so I kept searching and searching for it. When I found it, the words were different than other's.

Tendon problem on my leg from running. Been bogged down with that. Plus my parents and grandparents got in a huge fight (fortunately I haven't been dragged into it but the atmosphere around the house as been tense, further details witheld since its a family matter.) Man something's always gotta mess with my mojo when its lucid dreaming comps. Last time it was KSP, exams and sickness. Now it's ankle injury, family fight (ahem, dreamsign) and inevitably some other third thing to come...

Night 6

A dream (more a fragment really) that A college class was taking place in the basement of my house, and something to do with registration.

Something do with another piece of a bismuth crystal, one that had to, once again be inserted into some kind of alien machinery. This time I even recognized the crystal. It's the one I keep in my room. I attained some level of lucidity here and decided to question why I was dreaming of the crystal.

Night 7

A dream that one of my cats (who has a habit of bringing in animals) brought in many, many animals. The basement was full of frogs, rabbits and mice, and they were all alive. Hijinx insued as my mom and I tried to catch them all with butterfly nets and take them back outside. Actually was a very lengthy dream that involved of us disposing of four of the frogs and three of the rabits, at least that I can remember. But was fairly repetative and the details bore me.

Night 9 (last night)

I remember I was being attacked by a white horse that was apparently demonic. It was chasing me around some kind of ranch environment. I shot it with arrows and managed to kill it.

I remember attaining some level of semi lucidity and thinking that there was a particular way that I had to dispose of the dead demon horse so that it wouldn't come back as a poltergeist. I remember burying it in the ground and putting a circle of salt around it. I then drew a dreamcatcher web in the dirt. That was apparently supposed to capture the evil soul when it would rise from the ground and purify it in the sunlight, just like a functional dreamcatcher, while the salt prevented the evil soul from circumventing the web.

...

The dream continued. I was in some desert environment, but it was like a lakebed or a dried up ocean. Had some fallout vibes. I got attacked by a cowboy guy that was supposedly the owner of the demonic horse. He pushed me down and tried to shoot me with his revolver, but I pushed the gun away from him. I messed with his hand and tried to make him waste all the bullets by shooting them off away from us but he pushed my hand away when he had two left.

Garnet from SU appeared behind me and I again attained semi lucidity. I thought of the dreamcatcher shield as a personal goal from the comp to block the bullets but I got Steven's shield instead*. There was some fault in my confidence but it worked anyway and I blocked both shots with no cracks in the shield.

There was some kind of theme/amusement park that we were supposed to go to, but I didn't want to because I knew I was going to lose the dream and wake up because I hadn't been practicing these past few days. I remember thinking to myself "Tomorrow I'll get back to it."

Spoiler for *:

To be fair, Steven stole my flying jets for his lucid dream. I haven't RC'd as hard as when I saw this since that guy who looked JUST like my dream character Marcus joined up at my Taekwondo studio...

I wasn't properly lucid in any of these though though, my head wasn't in it, so I'm only scoring them as NLDs. Apologies to all my teammates who are competitive and want us to win, but it's too much of a stretch to call myself properly lucid in any of these.

Vague recollection of beating someone up. He was taller than me and I thought to myself that it was weird I was defeating him so easily. He barely seemed to put up a fight.

Howzit,

So I found myself in prison one again, I was on the landing just hanging around and wasting time when a guy came up to me, it was Chris Taylor, a lad I went to school with, but as a man..! He was agitated about something, but wouldn't say what, I figured out that he was pissed off 'cos it was my release date and Joy was coming to get me, he apparently had a thing for Joy..! All of a sudden for no reason and with no questioning from myself, the scene changed to a bar-b-q in a very large garden..! It was still in the prison, though it was more like a gated community than a prison..! Someone had made a makeshift fire in a compost bag, with bricks round the outer edge and the coals in the centre..! Suddenly three hefty black guys came along and started shouting about who had stolen their compost..! Brazen as you like, the guy next to me owned up and when they asked why, he said 'well I had a bag of sand to make it in, but I wanted a black bar-b-q'..! They reached over the fence and dragged him over, it was spiked at the top, so this did him no favours, one had a ball hammer and one had a sledge hammer, they took him over the road to a space of waste land where we could all see..! Everyone assumed they were going to hit him with the hammers, but what happened next beggars belief..! They forced him down onto all fours, took the ball hammer, spun it round and placed the but end of the hammer between his arse cheeks and took a swing with the sledge hammer..! They made contact, but not fully and so they tried again, once more they missed, but in the act of trying they were hurting him none the less..! I got up to leave and realised I was still imprisoned, but wanted no more of what was happening, I knew though that if they saw me try to leave that they would then start on me..! I walked to a clear spot, checked no one was watching, then I looked to the sky and took off..! Much in the same was Neo does at the end of the movie..!

I think then that I feel into sleep proper as I didn't wake immediately or at least I don't remember waking..! The next thing I know is the dog waking me for the toilet..!

Prison will now be added to my dream signs..!

Cheers, Nicho..!

Your welcome team, I got my A/C fixed. I can sleep better now!

Three Step Goals:
1.Advanced Flying
2.Element Manipulation
3.Mass Telekinesis

New Dream goal: Go to the moon
Old Dream goal: Go to my dream house



D1:Non-lucid: I was at a carnival but not a traditional carnival. It was pretty
abstract & nothing eventful of importance.


Did a wbtb. Got my first wild. And so the chaining begins! I had an
exceptional night due in part to my damn a/c being finally back on. Amen.

D2: wild from the start. Full blown lucids from here on so I don't have to
repeat it. I was with my husband and we were out walking around. I realized I
was dreaming when we saw a skunk & Freeways & buildings were everywhere. I did
a reality check & fucked w/ my husband a little because I think this may be my
first comp w/ him so presently in a lucid dream. I started super jumping up these
freeways & he told me to stop, that I couldn't do that because it was dangerous.
This was amazingly comical because I knew I was dreaming & he was just a character
so he was really freaked out, lol. I laughed a lot because he couldn't do these
crazy things I could but he managed to follow me for the most part by way of these
strange hills & what looked like spill ways (I'm not real sure what they are called)
they are those long concrete things under overpasses & freeways). They were laying
all weird & he mananged pretty well. Anyway, I went up really fast, making impossible
jumps up from freeway to freeway ledges & using super human strength with my hands to
go across them (thank you american ninja warrior for this helpful idea, lol) as they
were getting higher & higher & over & over.
It was really exhillerating! I've never had a
dream quite like this one. So I was gratful I had studied at this point just for
this moment. I scaled a building like spider man which was cool but I lost my husband
in all of this. I then chained into the next dream.

D3: Lucid- Mike was back with me & we were driving through this city that looked like ours
merged w/ the big kind of city I had just left behind in the last dream. There was a
woman in a car w/ 2 kids w/ no seat belts on & she was obviously fleeing someone. Mike
wouldn't follow her to help her like I wanted. We were stopped at a parking garage/toll
booth. I got mad & told him I was getting out. He was basically hindering my chances
of completing more tasks in my opinion. I have a way of wanting to keep my moral fiber
even in my lucid dreams. Sorry people but that's just how I roll. He was yelling at me
and I told him to give me money. I first tried to operate the debit part of the machine
for using an electronic device for points. It didn't work so I summoned money from my
pocket to use instead. He finally gave me money after that because I wanted more to
help the woman with for diapers etc. Hence i finally got the money due to dc manipulation/
mind control because he's fucking stubborn. He was still yelling as I ran away. I ran
superfast around all of these damn buildings that I eventually left the ground for super
speed flying which is much easier. But hell looking back I got some major ass points
for that! Fuck yes! Anyway I landed on a street corner which is where I started to
transition/chain into my 4th & final dream.

D4: Lucid- So now I'm on this street corner where I find the black lady who is talking
to people about the woman I saw in the car w/ the kids in her car basically fleeing
for her life. So I start asking her about the man she is referring to that she is fleeing
from. He is someone I know but haven't seen in a long time. I'm asking her a shit load
of questions about him now because it's all really weird. He just seemed to fall off
the face of the earth in my real life but I'm pretty sure he moved away closer to one
of his children. I'm asking advice which are points, yeah. She tells me the woman in
the car has his 2 kids & they are fighting but she's in such a tizzy she's not sure
of the details. I'm overwhelmed by the man being mentioned so I summon him to appear
in front of me. I freeze time & him to look at him. I'm very angry with him so I just
hold him there. Then I banish him from my sight. Then I'm not even me anymore. It was a full
transformation. My anger turned me into some kind of
angry energy & hurt. I can't describe this. I've never done this or felt this before.


Non-Lucid-Green
Lucid-Red
Side Notes-Purple
Competition Notes-Teal

I'm sitting in some kind of school gym/multi-purpose room. There's tons of students and parents. Everyone is sitting in rows on the floor, facing a stage, but nothing's really happening. Everyone is talking happily so the room is pretty loud. I'm sitting in the very back row. Sitting next to me is Lay, and sitting next to Lay is Chanyeol. We're friends and talking and laughing, but I notice Chanyeol keeps staring at me a lot, which I ignore. I hardly make eye contact with him. Jin shows up and is walking up and down each row, checking on everybody. As I look up he looks down and smiles at me. I grab his hand as he starts a conversation with someone in the row in front of me. He stays in the same place as he talks. Without getting up I reach for his hand and we hold hands the whole time. Occasionally he moves a bit forward, so I end up only being able to hold his fingers, but the whole time he's talking we never lose contact. Finally, after Jin's done talking, he smiles at me again so I release his hand and he leaves to check the other rows. I watch him go. I look down at my hands and notice that I feel Chanyeol staring at me again. Without looking up, I grab Lay's hand and pull it to my lap. I look up to see his reaction and he seems shocked but happy. I smile to myself and look back up towards the stage, waiting for something to happen. I start to play with Lay's fingers and without thinking much of it, I pull his fingers to my lips and kiss them. I then take his pointer finger into my mouth and start sucking on it. I turn and look at him and he's blushing but not stopping me. I pull his fingers out of my mouth but keep them close and continue to kiss them. After a dozen or so kisses, I pull his hand back onto my lap and hold his hand. I can feel him smiling and he squeezes my hand in return.

Had the perfect WBTB. I was sleepy, Hynagogic images and sounds were everywhere...all I needed was the right method. I chose MILD because Stephen LaBerge makes it sound like the holy grail of lucid dreaming in his book.

Did it, but did not get lucid. Felt like I wasted a huge opportunity for nice and long lucid dream. I dreamt about school non-lucidly.

I hate wasting my time.

Spellbee's Summer Lucid Competition 2016 - Entry 9

My recall was very poor today. Indeed, I'd forgotten much of all dreams today, including a DILD, as well as an entire dream. Part of this was intentional; I decided a good night's sleep was more important this time. In any case, each dream occurred before the first and last known awakenings, respectively.

Dream 1 - Teal Instinct Dude

The visuals were a bit blurred. All I remember was the end. I was playing Mega Man X, making a run through the metal forest stage. Somehow, I realize it's a dream. I end up summoning a Team Instinct member in-game (if only I could remember who; I only know this was a low-tier), who jumped in from off screen. They appeared as a teal armored, visored Reploid. My partner was very fragile, only able to take one hit before dying. But, the use of any special weapons (a few of which I'm sure were named after Magic - The Gathering cards) granted them a substantial temporary health boost.

The dream ends shortly afterwards.

Unintended WBTB after an unsuccessful DIELD attempt. Took about 15 minutes. Fell asleep unwittingly.


Scrap Group 1
Some Dragon Ball Z dream. Goku and a young Gohan are training. The latter is highly enraged, and attacks his father relentlessly. Cut. I'm wandering in some bleak NYC urban streets. Meet up with my brother Percy in an apartment room. I find my head is shaved. Go outside, where I run across a very wide, dangerous street. I almost got ran over for my trouble. I arrive at a town square. A couple in their early twenties walk ahead. Someone taps my shoulder. I suspect it was the guy ahead of me, and I yell at him, while he insults me. I'm still getting poked while he was way ahead. So, I warned I would kick whoever was behind me if they didn't show themselves. I turn around, and and am surprised to find it was Eustace, an old acquaintance of mine. I questioned his presence, while he wondered how I didn't know he lived and worked in NYC. There's an odd, violet reflection in his irises. As we're walking around a garden/fountain, I sit cross-legged and float around to show off. Pretty sure I was catching on to the dream, but the alarm's buzzing made short work of that.

I have no idea what the first 4 hours of this dream was, although it was certainly a great one. The end of this one was a surprise nightmare. I was at an old cottage on the irish coast, and I was with a woman who took me there for a dinner invite. The cottage was haunted, and the owners were terrified of it. There was an extreme wind ther from the coast, always blowing, and it forced the front door open and closed every 5 seconds. This door however was clearly being influenced by the paranormal and not any earthly force, so they would just slam and lock it as fast as they could. I didn't believe it so I stepped outside, and started saying the names of every ghost they feared. The wife said pretty matter of factly to me, "Well, that dog will definitely be out there now". I look to my right and a small ghost of a corgi is slowly fading into existence. It has glowing eyes and isn't all that scary. Then far and away through the dark fields of grass all around us I hear "Bad guy" whispered by a girl, then about 10 miles closer whispered again, then 10 feet away. Instand terror I feel.

I wake up.

Time to start the day!

The dream is somewhat recurring - place is the same and events of previous dream that happened there are mentioned many times.

Fragment

I was in my house, it was a midnight already. I was working in my laptop.

Dream

I was in Rio de Janeiro, in some kind of underground museum complex. I had a strong feeling that I was there before and thought "Again in that city. Maybe this visit would be better than previous one. And I might take some photos this time too!", then I went down some wooden stairs and entered a hallway with exhibits. There were many Christian figures and many other stuff chiseled in a brown rock. In one of the halls there was a strange figurine of Jesus. It looked really creepy in half-darkness, looking at me with ominous smile. I took some photos though, and noticed some arcs of energy on them. I thought "That's strange. Reminds me of previous visit in here.". I wandered some more around the place, visiting places that I've seen before. There were stairways made of black oak, I moved cautiously on them as there were pools with magma and a waterfall to which one could easily fall.

I decided to leave the museum and took a walk, thinking "This city offers a lot of entertainment". There was a great festival, people were dancing and playing on instruments. I took some more photos of festival, huge waterfall and some bay in the moonlight. All the time I saw those arcs of energy on them and got scared of dark god's returning after it was defeated in my last visit. I ran into an abandoned house - place where dark god was defeated last time and wandered in darkness. Wraiths that were damned to haunt that place were aggressive all the time and openly attacked me. I decided to get back into the hotel near museum and find some help. I met pal from previous class there, he reminded me what happened when we last me there, though it didn't had anything to do with dark god. I showed him photos and movies from all around the city and from the haunted house. He believed me, then the dark god have risen and opened up volcanic chasms around the hotel.

I really am kicking myself for not writing this up sooner, it just HAD to be a great dream that happened on one of the busiest days I've had this month :/ it's faded a bit from memory but it was still a cool dream.

Dream
First off, I was watching a transformers movie.. It was really good, the first one (though nothing actually like the movie), it flicked to the adverts and I saw some sort of advertisement about old pop songs. There was a dude at a really nice beach in the water with his surf board and he was in the music video, selling his sex appeal in the way that the 90s pop songs did.

I forget how the dream transitions.. But I finished the movie and had left to go somewhere. There's a bit of context in the dream now, I'm a demigod of some sort, I live in (and apparently own) a semi-underground building that houses parties for the local monsters (vampires and other stuff). I'm walking through the stone corridor and meet Alexis Texas, she comes onto me and we briefly do adult stuff, but the thing I really noted was that my hands were FREEZING cold. Another girl joins while I'm kissing Alexis, my mouth is full of gum for some reason... I kiss the other girl and her mouth is full of gummy bears. Weird. Then there's an ad for gummy bears, like I was briefly watching TV again.. I saw a bottle on a table with a bunch of gummy bears, I can't recall more than that.
I'm back with the girls but I open the door nearby and head downstairs, leaving them. I'm in the foyer of the building where people have begun showing up, some guy talks shit and I grab his head and slam it into the ground with inhuman strength, killing him instantly and sending blood splattering everywhere. Some of the audience is unphased by this (the monsters). I turn and grab another human and slam his head against a wall repeatedly until he dies too. The remaining humans have scattered out the entrance to escape.. I look around and head up some stairs with some friends joining me, let the party begin. I spot Hamish on my way up the stairs and say hello, he's super non-chalant about the interaction. I thought he was meant to be sick yet he is going to the club, I decide to not bring it up as it's not a big deal. Our group arrives at the top of the stairs, opening up into a large spacious redlit room with music pumping. There aren't many people yet as the night only just started. I start dancing and people start joining, I'm just enjoying myself rather than trying to show off, occasionally dancing in sync with some mates which I found really fun ^_^.

This was another very vivid dream, I think somewhere in the dream I watched transformer 2, and saw bumblebee riding on top of a train as the opening sequence. I remember thinking that the movies budget was way bigger but the movie itself was much worse than the first... Can't remember when this happening though, possible at the same time as the gummy bear advert.
