^^ If it's not exactly the same thing it's about as close as you can get to it. I would count it personally: what's the difference between "mental prep" or "physical prep" for an instant location change in the dream world? The effect's the same. I also actually practiced visualizing this without the point/line first: just "grabbing" space with my hands together in front of me, and drawing them apart to open the portal. And for the same reason: to have a way out of exitless locations, and not to waste time changing location on FAs. That's the plan at least . Now to get lucid and try it out

Sleep schedule this last week ... NOT. 2-3 hours late to bed most nights, sleeping into afternoon. It's showing on recall, both quantity and quality. Not feeling close to lucidity in dreams. 00:00 Weds October 30, 2013 competition #15 night #13 4 dreams: 4 2 fragments: 1 WBTB attempt: 1 night total: 6 00:00 Thurs October 31, 2013 competition #15 night #14 4 dreams: 4 4 fragments: 2 WBTB attempt: 1 night total: 7 00:00 Fri November 1, 2013 competition #15 night #15 1 dream: 1 1 WBTB attempt: 1 night total: 2 competition total: 102

Nothing remembered last night

[JoannaB]

I actually remembered another fragment that I had forgot earlier in the morning, so another 0.5 point.

31st Oct 2013 Various fragments - Dream Journals - Lucid Dreaming - Dream Views 1st Nov 2013 Fragments and MiniLD - Dream Journals - Lucid Dreaming - Dream Views 6 fragments, 1 WBTB Success, 1 Lucid. 11 points. @dolphin Congrats on your 300th , what a coincidence that you also have 300 points total at the moment. @BrandonBoss I guess i could count it as teleporting... 6 points only because limit though. @Everyone Also tomorrow is the last day of the competition.

Scionox, Sounds good! 6 dreams = 6 points WBTB success = 3 points lucid = 5 points RC = 1 point stabilize = 2 points super speed = 4 points DEILD = 2 points lucid = 5 points RC = 1 point stabilize = 2 points interact with DC = 2 points total = 33 points Spoiler for LD #1 (Kamehameha): I am in the forest! Yay! Zombies were in this forest earlier! RC, Stabilize. I need to look for some zombies. Movement up ahead way far ahead. I speed there at about the same speed as my flying, but my feet are hitting the ground. That was the fastest I have "run" without being on all fours. I wait for it to get around the corner. I try to decide what move to do to kill it. Kamehameha! That should be fun. I get in position. Should have gotten in the air.... Then a velociraptor walks around the tree What the Sheol?! I keep charging up and can feel the energy flowing to my hands. The raptor is ignoring me. I release it and nothing happens. I wake up. :/ I lay still and slip into another dream. Spoiler for LD #2 (my wife of course): My wife is sexually attacking me (like normal) I RC, stabilize in order to get fully in the dream. It only takes about a minute till the dream fades I am going back to sleep now. More LDs for me!!!

Another 5 points from dreams and an WBTB... I found some errors in my mental routine causing me to be more resistant to lucids, I'll fix it and see if it'll become better.

[LucasPotter]

Had a lucid dream! Two dreams. 2 points. Lucid. 5 points. Stabilize the dream. 2 points. Failed WBTB. 1 point. Interact with a DC. 2 points. 12 points. Total: 90 points. DJ!

4 fragments, 1 wbtb attempt, 3pts, 131.5 total Experiment data: 2 getting to bed earlier than normal attempts to extend time asleep beyond ~8 hours produced no favorable results...but perhaps due to other reasons. Edit to add: The exact end date/time is 2nd November, in between 4:00-6:00 PM GMT +3 when i'll do update. And what JoannaB says is correct, any dreams from before that time will count as well as dreams at night between 1st and 2nd in case timezones, but any naps and nights after that will not be counted. I will do final update similar time at 3rd Nov so everyone will have time to post dreams. I did the calculation and that will be around 6:00-8:00 AM PST (West Coast of United States)...or basically when I get up tomorrow morning, so no nap attempts for me...in case that helps anyone in a similar time zone.

[JoannaB]

Alas, no additional points for me tonight.

[LucasPotter]

Final night with a lucid dream!!! Dream. 1 Fragment. .5 (not on DJ yet. All I remember is Aylin from The Glee Project having to choose between two women) Lucid. 5 Interact with a DC. 2 Telekinesis. 4 Total should be... 12.5. Telekinesis is also my first task, so extra 5, so 17.5. Total: 107.5 I'm actually not up yet, I just got my iPad to write down my dream cause I was afraid I'd forget it. Not sure if I'll have more dreams or even if they'd count, but I'm glad with how for I've gotten already... so if this is the end, then yay! Two lucid dreams in a row is a good way to finish the competition! DJ for lucid dream.

1st Nov 2013 Fragments - Dream Journals - Lucid Dreaming - Dream Views 2nd Nov 2013 Random fragments and another MiniLD - Dream Journals - Lucid Dreaming - Dream Views 7 fragments, 1 dream, 1 WBTB Success, 1 Lucid. 12.5 points. @BrandonBoss That be only 28 points, not 33. @LucasPotter Congrats on lucids! @Everyone And competition end time has been reached, so it's now is officially over! You can still post dreams you had before this post and from Friday-Saturday night to get points, but any other dreams from now on do not count towards score. Also those who haven't posted DJ entries for lucid dreams before please post DJ entries or update your previous posts with them. I will verify the scores tomorrow and winners will be selected!

[LucasPotter]

After my last post, my mum woke up and decided to make breakfast, so... that's it! I'm going to edit my other post with my DJ entry now. Scionox, thanks for doing this, it was really awesome!!!

[FryingMan]

Total: 107.5 Hmm, posting early is clearly disadvantageous... Congrats on your very effective last night! And competition end time has been reached, so it's now is officially over! I will verify the scores tomorrow and winners will be selected! Thanks a bunch for running the competition, looking forward to the next one!

[JoannaB]
