      My lucid dreams are extremely realistic. They're almost exactly like waking life but I rated it a "9" because there is just something about it that while you'r in your dream, you just know its a dream. But other then that, visually and sensualy it feels like reality to me!

      Meh, I rated it a 10. Even waking life seems like a dream. Reality is a funny thing..

      But my lucids feel like waking life, and I guess sometimes you kind of think it's a dream from time to time. Probably because half of our logic center is turned off. But honestly, some of my most vivid dreams feel like a REAL memory. It's weird, but I don't mind. I like being able to look back to my "memories" and remembering reality shattering adventures.

      Unfortunately, my dreams are like RL. I try to take the laws of nature out of my mind.

      It varies, but I'd say 8. Usually things look very vivid and almost exactly like reality, however there are other things that make it less like reality. Like music (which often doesn't sound exactly like the real song) or random people showing up, or sometimes extra rooms or strange furniture in my house that shouldn't be there.

      I don't think there is a straight answer. Some lucids are 10s and others 5s.. The quality will vary depending on which sleep cycle your in, among other factors.

      Same here, Although I've never really took the time to listen to music. I have had a few extremely vivid and real-like lucids. I guess stabilizing is a big factor too.

      I've ranged from anywhere from 2 to on one occasion, about 12, in terms of being more vivid than real life, in which vase I guess realism would be a 9 or 10. Average is about 6 or 7.

      Rated ten, well, at least for last night's lucid, which was the most vivid I've had.

      Many of mine seem as real as real life, but it varies.

      It varies? Most of the time they are like waking though.

      Varies also for me. Mostly they are as realistic as waking, but nevertheless there are some exceptions, where a dream is a bit blurry or dark. But more rarely, as a result I give an 8.
      I'm not the signature, I'm just cleaning here.

      I voted a 10. When I become very Lucid, the constructs around me are just as real as the waking world, albeit I know it's a dream. The only differance is the fact that I know it's a dream, and can alter it as a result.

      But things like texture, color, weather, etc, are all just as real. That is one of the things I marvel at most when I dream, being able to reach down and feel the grass under my feet, the bark on a tree, the texture of a drywall on a building etc.

      they vary greatly so no single option in this poll is applicable to me.
      TAKE DV members advice with caution! some have had zero or 1-2 LD's yet act like gurus
