Well hypnotism would quite take away the fun from it I feel, as would any measure of control over your enemies - anyone with good control would be able to snap through it. I personally wouldn't find that fun. But hey, I'm not the creator of this game...

Conisag! *crowds cheer in distance*

This sounds very cool. Good idea. This is amazing.

You know that the Lucid Crossroads relies on your imagination to create it individually? THere is no communal LD space, your subconcious has just been told what to expect so it creates when you go there. The receptionists were a nice touch. All that was was also making subconcious representations of yourself to answer any question you might have. You're basically asking yourself, therefore all the confused answers you hear about.

Just wanted to mention that, since you were tslking about it. The Lucid Crossroads is genius. btw I beliueve shared dreaming is real, but that's irrelevant.
