3 dreams - 3 points 1 fragment - 0.5 points total - 3.5 points?

[Matte87]

1 dream last night. Total: 1 point for me and Team Darkness! BrandonBoss: Nah that's not big enough. PostScript99: Only you and the team get the points. LonelyCloud: I'm not really following you... REM rebound is when you get less than 4 hours of sleep one night, that's it. You don't go back to bed later, only the day after. Checker666: Is the team score wrong? I may have made a mistake. Your team doesn't get points for Three Step Tasks though. Scores Updated!

LonelyCloud: I'm not really following you... REM rebound is when you get less than 4 hours of sleep one night, that's it. You don't go back to bed later, only the day after. But there must be some kind of rule of a TIME of from where it counts as an REM rebound? If you say it's about going bed on the day after, I could sleep from 20:00 to 23:59 and then be awake to 8am and then go bed and sleep some hours. But I guess that wouldn't count? And my question were also what does count? That what does 'the day after' means in particular? I just want to know how I can count it as a rebound if I want to try doing it. Which of these alternatives would you allow to call a REM rebound? #1 Going bed at 23:30 at 7th April, waking up 03:30 at 8th April, being awake until 21:00 at 8th April and then going back to bed. Would that count as a rebound? #2 Going bed at 02:00 at 8th April, waking up 06:00 at 8th April, being awake until 23:00 at 8th April. Would this work too or is this just not enough time? People have different views on what day is a day, TV channels pages like tv.nu shows up programs that passes 00:00 time in same day of the programs that shows like 21:00. I just want to know the rules of a proper REM rebound, or else I just judge it myself if it now doesn't matter. Because then I probably going one day to bed at 2 or 3am, waking up a 4 hours later and then being awake until like 21pm and then going to sleep. Then a whole day for me have passed atleast. Not sure what other people would call that though.

A couple of fragments. http://www.dreamviews.com/blogs/chec...agments-45297/ 2 fragments(0.5*2) = 1 Total = 98.5 + 1 = 99.5 Your team doesn't get points for Three Step Tasks though. Huh, didn't realized that, well, then team Sun has five more points than it should have since i have done Partial Transformation part of TSTs and got +5 from that at one point. Edit: Got a long dream from a nap, became lucid near the end, but haven't done anything in terms of dream control because of lack of waking life/goal recall. http://www.dreamviews.com/blogs/chec...d-class-45305/ 1 dream(1) + lucid(5) + Interact with a DC(2) = 8 Total = 99.5 + 8 = 107.5

[Xanous]

had a lucid but forgot it. Pretty much was a bad night for recall. Wbtb try 1 point (lucid was pre WBTB) 1 fragment 0.5 point

[StaySharp]

WBTB try, 3 dreams,1 fragment -4,5 points

[Sensei]

5 dreams = 5 points WBTB success = 3 points Lucid = 5 points RC = 1 point Stabilize = 2 points Tk = 4 points Interact with DC = 2 points Mass Telekinesis = 10 points Gain invulnerability = 4 points Lucid = 5 points RC = 1 points Stabilize = 2 points Interact with DC = 2 points Three step task = 5 points Total = 43 points Total total = 137 Spoiler for dreams: I wake up around four O'clock for a WBTB. Go to sleep about 10 minutes later. Someone throws a basketball at me. I grab it and am really confused. I think that it should make sense since I was playing basketball about an hour ago. No... That was a dream. I look at my hands (RC, stabilize) I then toss the basketball and stop it in the air. I look for more of them and start rotating them in the air in my mind (tk). I hit 6 and I can't find anymore. I see a door and I walk to it, I slam it open with my mind (most doors are locked if I jiggle the handle). I walk outside and I notice that I am in a strange place. I see two dudes walking and stop them (interact with DC). I point the gym out and say "I am getting ready to life that up with my mind!" They think that that sounds stupid. I put my hands up (like a Jedi) and lift it up (foundation and all) and throw it across the way out of my vision (mass TK). Next! Teleport! I close my eyes and realize that I don't know where I want to go. I open them back up and see a cliff. I look over the edge... I dive down and imagine my skin being tough as well as my neck being unbreakable. Bam! Hit the ground and I am a little disoriented. I look around and notice why the place looks so strange. I am on the moon! Looking back it looked like the moon the whole time. I wake up. Next. I go back to sleep and am playing basketball again. Nothing out of the ordinary. I jump up to dunk and don't make the height, but I don't fall, I lift higher and fly to the ceiling. I dunk it and then land on the ground... That was weird. That happens when I dream... Oh! I look at my hands (RC and stabilize) I see a DC and decide to see what they are doing here (interact with DC) After about 10 seconds I lost lucidity and the dream carried on. :/

[pelko]

Srri again 4 such inactiveness however, i had 2full dreams in Sunday & saturday -wondering here how ive still tried WBTB a few times but i dont suppose they even count as trie points because i had again totally forgotton my intention after only a few minutes when falling asleep D need more energy & determination

[MysticalDipshit]

7 dreams recalled = 7 points. Total so far = 28 + 7 = 35 points

[Sensei]

Hey! Pelko! I would recommend signing up for a DVA class! DV Academy It can help keep your motivation up and give you some one on one help with anything! Just waking up and falling asleep isn't technically a WBTB, but it is actually really good. I do about 6 micro WBTBs a night and one big one after about 4 hours. The micro ones are good to increase recall and awareness and vividness of dreams. All those three are good things for LDs as well. . But nothing really beats a WBTB! Just make sure that you check different times to see what works for you the most. Keeping track of vividness and awareness of a dream can show you if there is progress even if you don't LD.

[Ginsan]

I do about 6 micro WBTBs a night Could you tell me more about those micro WBTBs? How did you figure out the times to wake and how do you wake up? You said you had a wife so an alarm clock would be pretty annoying for her And do you really do it every night? It sounds like a solid way to get very good at LDing in very quickly

[Ginsan]

I remember fragments of 2 dreams = 1 point Both lucid = 10 points Interaction with DC in both = 4 points In the first I went through a wall (hands and half of my face and arms), had super strength, teleported and stabilised (by going through an object, does that count?). That's 4 + 4 + 4 + 2 = 14 points I woke up after the first dream to journal and take a piss. Took about 15-20 minutes, does that count as a WBTB? If so, that = 3 points I was lucid and listed the points for it above. I will upload the journal later. 1 + 10 + 4 +14 +3 = 32 point I do about 6 micro WBTBs a night Yo Brandon, you'll get a third of my cake if I win this xD. These WBTBs have skyrocketted my recall = D

[PennyRoyal]

1 Dream, 1 Fragment = 1.5 pts 52.5 Pts total

[Matte87]

2 dreams last night. Total: 2 points for me and Team Darkness! LonelyCloud: It's not as strict as that, it's only this competition that makes it so. I'd still count both of those attempts as REM rebound though. Scores Updated!

[Sensei]

Could you tell me more about those micro WBTBs? How did you figure out the times to wake and how do you wake up? You said you had a wife so an alarm clock would be pretty annoying for her And do you really do it every night? It sounds like a solid way to get very good at LDing in very quickly Yeah! I wake up without an alarm. It doesn't work very well unless I am on a good sleep schedule, which is a big reason why sleep schedule changes so much about my lucids. The more your mind is in good sleep and you are not under stress the easier it is to use mnemonics to use it. I just choose the times I will wake up when I am about to go to sleep and when I wake up I note my dream, write it down if I feel it slipping and then back to sleep (30 seconds or so) I wake up at hours 3,4,5,6 and at 6 I have a long WBTB and back to sleep at 6 1/4 hours. Then switch to waking up as often as I feel like, normally when an alarm goes off in the morning I will wake up 2 or 3 times like that and that is also a good way to get more of them because you are bouncing in and out of dream. If I have an LD I stop everything and sleep as much as possible for the rest of the night because they come in waves. It is great for DEILD, but I am not good at staying aware through a DEILD. It gives me a lot of tries for WILD though and raises the chances of DILD. Bangs on all cylinders
