Excellent, thank you for the description! I love the idea of these experiences becoming simpler the more seasoned your grow. Over time, it's like the bells and whistles that once seemed so exciting either disappear entirely or just turn into scenery on the way to the real destination: getting lucid! I will definitely keep playing with this if it happens again. I'm not in a rush to tackle WILD (although that day will come.) But if I find my way their on my own, damned if I'm going to miss my opportunity!

After all that help, I hate to try to keep shamelessly looting you for more knowledge, but... have you totally conquered FAs? This is one I'm still working on. I really got a lot of these bad boys. They're charming in their own way but they've got nothing on a true lucid dream.

And that new October avatar!! That is perfect!
