    1. Competition day #7+8 Freedom and the dark ice age

      by , 08-25-2015 at 08:33 PM
      "What about the freedom?"

      It was night and I was wandering around with another person down the streets. The surrounding seemed a bit familiar but also had that adventurous feeling to it. The first thing that I noticed was how terribly shabby the front yards were. The grass had grown over a meter high and already turned brownish with seeds on the top which really confused me. Were the houses abandoned or are the owners just really lazy?

      Now we come to the point where the dream took a whole new direction. I met some friends at a traffic light and they told me that they were searching for another person which disappeared. Of course I couldn't say no but on the other hand I sensed that everything hear was totally wrong somehow. For the first time ever a dream character would give me the final kick to completely accept that it was a dream. He just randomly said "What about the freedom?" Of course he was right. It was time to leave the plot the dream had given me and follow my own one. I turned around and ran over the street just to wake up. Yeah, stabilizing and thinking could help sometimes...

      The dark ice age

      This time I shall start off with a false awakening. I actually love those because they feel the most convincing and real. My first action of the "day" was to open the window and directly drop my jaw at what I saw. Although it was late summer everything was covered in snow and ice and the sun was strangely gloomy. It was very red and didn't spend much light. As someone took our sun at substituted it with a red dwarf star.

      In a second I made a RC and I was at least a bit less confused as I saw the result. This was so interesting that I directly went out and sat into a chair just watched the dark, icey world around me. Cars were driving extremely slowly by and the drivers looked slightly irritated as well.

      I knew what I had to do: Find out who caused it and turn it back to normal. An adventure awaited me (Hopefully I can get back into the story in another lucid)

      Next time I will unite some team mates and bring back the light together with them.

    2. Competition day #5 hunting game, human chain and facedesk

      by , 08-22-2015 at 02:36 PM
      The huge human chain

      I took a little walk through a park and it was all silent and peaceful... until then. Behind the next curve a few people appeared but I walked on as I would easily get past them. Then a few more popped up and more and more and more...

      Soon I realized that it wouldn't end in the next few seconds and stepped aside on a smaller path to not get overrun in the mass. It was unbelievable how many people actually passed me and how loud it gotten suddenly. Most people were chating and a few just looked straight forward which made me feel kind of uncomfortable. Interestingly they all seemed to have the same cultural background, kind of an arabic touch. When the chain had finally passed two people walked behind it who totally did not fit to the others. Still wondering what they all were up too.

      The hunting game

      I visited a fun park with one of my friends and we were looking around for some attractions there. To be honest it was kind of hard as the place was huge and not far from being a labyrinth. Huge walls blocked your sight so orientation was hard. In the distance a girl was waving her arms signalising us to come over. We followed her and sat down on a bank and she explained the game to us that we would be playing in a minute. There is a team of animals and a team of hunters. The animals try to hide all other the place while the monsters, geared with a toy bow and toy arrows, have to find them and get one succesful hit to get them out.

      It sounds very easy but the place was pretty gloomy and it was hard to tell if the moving person in the distance is an animal or a monster. So it happened that I shot out a few of my monster team mates which was pretty stupid actually. Too bad I didn't see how the game ended.

      What a waste of time

      The gloomy room didn't make the impression you expect but it was a maths room. The teacher was totally unknown to me but I didn't question that too much as she directly flooded us with tasks. What a horror, doing maths in the late evening/night...

      The worst thing was that nothing worked out like I wanted it to. First off I had no idea how to complete the task at all so I just tried to do something with my calculator. The task was to construct some weird graph and get information for some points on it. Too bad that my calculator just gave me out a bunch of non-sense letters and numbers I couldn't understand. At some point I just facedesked and "fell asleep" just to have a false awakening the "next morning" without any solutions. Now I started to really question that weird situation and did a RC. As expected I had more than 5 fingers once again.

      All that time wasted for math, my free time... I just facedesked again and woke up for real this time.

    3. Competition day #4: Endless task and strange car ride

      by , 08-21-2015 at 08:57 AM
      The endless task

      It was an interesting world I awoke in. Very mountainous and caves were waiting to be explored and mined. With me were a few strangers but I didn't care about that fact as they had at least an idea what to do in contrast to me who was just in an unknown place.

      The task was easy, yet it would take a lot of time. Search for resources, make something useful from them and gain even more resources. No end, except you give up. It actually sounds pretty boring but on the other hand I was very motivated to max out the resource gain. So I followed the other people and we entered one of the caves inside of a mountain. You could clearly see that someone was already working here due to the lanterns spending a dim, yellow light and the unnatural holes exposing tons of ore. Everyone got a pickaxe and we started to carve it out of the wall.

      Strange car ride

      I turned left with my car entering a small, silent street that was more or less unspectacular. Pretty suprising instead was the traffic light which was on the middle of the street and turned red. There was plenty of way between me and it and I wasn't very fast either but still I failed to break strong enough and crossed the line. So I had do drive a bit backwards and then forwards again. Suddenly my car started to do weird snake lines for no good reason and I started to question the whole situation. Finally I got the last kick when I looked into my rearview mirror and saw a different person than myself. An African looking boy looked at me and I said "Hey, I am driving this car and my name is *ensert name here* and I am not you, OK?"
      The boy just looked down as he was disappointed of me recognizing this.

      I was lucid now of course and directly walked out of my car. Actually I was happy to not have to deal with it anymore and prepared myself by rubbing my hands a bit and keeping the dream stable. It felt a bit like my hands had too few blood in them. For the fun of it I took a look at it and didn't even bother to count them as they were clearly more than five. First I wanted to get an overview and flew a bit up and landed safely again. Then I wanted to get a few competition points by doing my OWN tasks but ended up thinking at the telekinetic rampage someone wrote about in his dream journal and tried the same. Pitfully I was not lucid enough to make the cars fly and crash into each other but it was worth a try.
