I haven't had an LD in a while. This is a very interesting idea, sign me up :)
I've lost motivation lately and haven't had a lucid for a while, so I'm in. One question though - how exactly would you do a reality check with Xmas lights? Touch them? Turn them on or off? What does that prove? I still have a problem with reality checks because it seems to me that you could make anything you want happen in a dream, so if I intend to touch the lights they might seem solid, and if you intend to turn them on or off that could also happen.
What ever works for you Sea, for example I now often do the Digital wristwatch reality check when I see christmas lights, so you don't have to interact with the object, it just as to trigger your lucidity / that you do a rc and than become lucid. At least I understood it that way :)
Every time you see a set of Christmas lights you could pinch yourself or hold your nose and try and breathe, if it hurts or you can't breathe than you're not dreaming but if it doesn't or you can keep breathing then you know you're in a dream and then can, hopefully, become lucid. :) There are quite a few different RCs out there if you don't like either of those.
Oceandrop and Wishfulthinker have the right idea :) You don't need to physically use it as an rc, you just need to see it to make you question if you're dreaming or not :) Welcome to the challenge and good luck Sea :)
Good luck guys! Not that any of you really need it :P
Woo, alright. >:D Let's go~
-Night 1-
Only a fragment remembered, but by the time I'd gotten hold of my dream journal and a pen I'd forgotten it :( Oh well, 6 more chances! :D
Night one:
Nothing at all. D;
Learnt a lot from trying to WILD yesterday though, pretty confident for tonight :)
Hey patch, i had my lucid yesterday night!
The most epic one ever!
Superjumping and Neo taught me fighting, and I defeated him. - Dream Journals - Lucid Dreaming - Dream Views
But i guess, because i didn't get lucid due Christmas lights.. i don't get points? :(
If not, too bad.. but i had suchhhhhh an amazing lucid :)
Barely slept. Oops.
Michael073: Congratulations! Don't worry you will get points because I hate the current points system I've set up. I don't like that it's bias to one technique. So for being first to lucid in this 1 week challenge you've won yourself 400 points! :) Just to help everyone else out I've put the rest of the info for points below.
Berto: Nice, I really hope the technique works out for you :)
Taffy: Come on Taffy! You can do it! :P :D
1st to lucid - 400pts (Won by Michael073)
2nd to lucid - 200pts
3rd to lucid - 100pts
You can also gain the christmas lights RC points on top of those you can win for the lucid :)
I'm on day 2, but I'm gonna give this a try. Maybe this will help. There are Christmas lights everywhere!
MissGnomers: Welcome to Dream Views and welcome to the challenge, best of luck to you :)Also just want to make sure you've read the slight change in the points system in the post above yours? :)
Thanks! Honestly, not really worried about or expecting to win. I just think the challenge will keep me focused. :)
Expect not to win, expect to lucid dream. You'd be surprised how well it works just expecting it :)
Thank you so much djpatch999!
This lucid was soooooooooooooooooo badass woowwww haha, now i just want to keep going and going.. haha
Michael073: It certainly sounded badass. Of course you will, my first few lucids were mind blowing like that too :D Unfortunately you are now illegible to win the 2nd or 3rd place points. But you are very very welcome to continue with the challenge and post your results, as you've seen it makes interesting and motivating reading for everyone.
You are welcome, even though there's no need to thank me :P
Haven't remembered a single dream for four days straight now, not even a fragment. My first lucid dream continues to elude me... for now.
-Night 2-
Remembered 3 fairly long dreams, in my DV dream journal if you want to read :)
Santoryu: Ahh nuu, keep trying. Maybe look up a few tricks for bringing back recall? :)
-Night 3-
No dreams remembered, probably because of the early start. I also finished my DJ last night! Must buy a new one :L
-Night 4-
Had a very weird and vivid dream, I'm getting closer to a lucid! :D
