Well done and Congrats to the 'Anotherdreamer' and 'Fryingman' and to the Team Winners! Excellent job to ALL!

Thanks for the competition, Scionox. It was great fun participating. I am looking forward for the next competition to improve my score.

Thank you so much for hosting this competition Scionox. It helped me to do some crazy things in dream land that I have never done before. I was really surprised at how much the idea of a competition helped me to improve my control, stabilization, and duration of LDs. Congratulations to everyone that saw improvement, broke their dry spells, and had a lot of fun participating like I did. ^^

Usually you can get at least some competition points for TOTM since they involve perhaps summoning, and interacting with DCs, etc., but it's an interesting idea to explicitly call them out... it just involves some inventive thinking

Good work winners! Would you believe it had my second LD last night! Missed the comp! Ha ha
Cheers for running running this!

Whooop Whoop my fellow Taurus - fantastic - so maybe some sort of tension fell off you - and that might even be an indirect effect from the comp - hehe - congratulation and to many more!!

I mean beyond dream limit like stand alone tasks in the rules of all upcoming competitions - for example for one low TOTM 10 points and for one upper TOTM 15 points.

Awesome, this is a fairly common occurrence it seems! I also got a DEILD (my first) the morning after the competition ended on 1/1/2014! It may be worthwhile to try to play-act during the competition that it is over already and it was a really fun time and that you're really looking forward to more lucids that come your way, to try to eliminate lucid performance anxiety/stress...

**Pickman** · 01-02-2014 10:52 AM

It's been fun. Thanks Scionox! Will probably see you again at the next competition.

I think i've seen team task being done by whole team like only once if i recall correctly, but some actually attempted it or done halfway thru(only one from team).

I might as well.

There's a "dream-kata" thread in dream-control, Fryingman - and somebody suggested to do a preparation/incubation/however-you-name-it - with emphasizing to yourself to not get sexually distracted/sidetracked.
If this is a real problem - why not try to do something like that - really plant conscious intention to ignore the drive?
Not a real problem for me - but I actually also had some moments, where I had to use my will not to loose myself in something of that sort - instead of keeping on my track and going for my goals.

**FryingMan** · 01-02-2014 04:35 PM

Yes thanks I already have my own "just got lucid" kata which I am developing. I've performed it properly twice now in LDs, and hope to get this to be a reflex action in every lucid long enough to perform it (it only takes about 15-20 seconds).

**she** · 01-04-2014 12:16 PM

Nice comp. thanks everyone. Waiting for the next

**FryingMan** · 02-02-2014 03:35 PM

I seriously need the boost from the competition: when does #17 begin?!

**Sensei** · 02-02-2014 03:46 PM

Competition 17 onegai shimasu!

**Scionox** · 02-02-2014 04:08 PM

I am honestly not sure, for a few weeks my schedule was all over the place and i haven't had time for alot of things. Though, i am trying to fix it fully hopefully, so i'll try to get signup thread running in a week or a few.
