I drank the water, but Fris did not show up. I did, however, have an LD which I will add to my DJ a little later. Obviously I could not find Fris because he was busy getting hammered in WL!

I had a non-lucid dream where I was talking to CanisLucidus, Sensei, and an unknown DC about another dreaming project we're working on.
I realised I was dreaming as we spoke.
I've sent Canis the dream, but once again, I can't post it publicly because it contains spoilers for our other project.
Although Canis was present when I became lucid, I didn't take him with me on my lucid adventure, so I'm only going to claim a point for the NLD.

Dreamer
vs
CanisLucidus

Start date: July 13th, 2014.

Current Score:

Dreamer: 9 (1 NLD, 1 bonus LD, 1 bonus NLD)

CanisLucidus: 10 (1 bonus LD, 1 bonus NLD, bonus first!)

Watch out Canis, I'm right on your tail!
Oh, I just remembered that you said you had a dream recently... was I in it?
My memory is so bad... I get the feeling that you did earn another point.
Make sure you update your score if you did!

Found you, Fris . I'm in the middle of a move so I will post the details either tonight or tomorrow morning!

Nice work, ThreeCat! I look forward to hearing the details.

Oh man I went camping and I did not remember a single dream
First night in my real bed again, tonights gonna be good for sure!
Dreamer, I like your new signature!
Btw if anybodys looking to adopt and raise somebody, feel free to fill out the adoption sheets

Hey guys,

In case you were super devastated about missing Double Points week (it's okay, you can admit it ), here's another chance to rack up some points!

DOUBLE POINTS FOR THE NEXT SCORE!

No time limit. Whoever has the next dream in each team can double the points they earn.

K, go!

Thank you, Mats!

I joined DV in 2010 (my join date is wrong), just after they had started phasing out the official adoption program. I think I was one of the last members who was lucky enough to be adopted!
The DVA was opened up to replace the adoption program, so that one-on-one support is still available to anyone.

I personally think that having your own special guardian has extra benefits, though. I was motivated to continue being active on DV and keep working at my dream goals because I knew Percy had personally invested in me and was rooting for my success.
What kind of help/support would you want from an adoptive mentor? Maybe you could PM me and tell me what you have in mind.

Good luck tonight - double points are coming your way!
(Unless FryingMan comes in with a sneak attack!)

Weee! Found a DV group. NyxCC, dreamer, and canis! So some points for me (if the month hasn't expired), and this was definitely before the double points. :/

I enter a video game. Pretty standard non lucid. The video game is crazy though! It is designed to practice LDing skills. I message dreamer and she tells me that a group of them have already made it there, but they aren't on anymore. She said that she will message me when they all get back and challenges me to find her hideout. I realize that it is a dream and decide to do that anyways. Sounds like fun. It is a pretty standard looking dream world, yellow buildings made of mud in the middle surrounded by three to five story tall buildings. The place is kind of destroyed, probably from all the dreamers. I decide to stay on the ground for a more fun experience and see a huge portion of building that looks... Unbroken. I run and climb to it and see that dreamer has put up a net that looks like a building to keep people from finding it (see through from the inside) it is destroyed like most places, but she has some dream items in it, as well as a couch and tv. I look around for a bit and get a message from dreamer, this time a voice comes over.
"We are all coming down, meet us at the entrance." Before I can ask which one, she hangs up. I go to the one that I came in and no one is there. I check gravity and decide to practice some backflips. I land two and have to stop myself in midair from breaking my dream neck for the third.

"Where are you?" I hear.
"At the entrance." I say.
"I can sense you, just go forward and keep the secret base on the right."

I take off running at normal speed and am not finding them. Maybe a bit of dream control to speed it up. Lying is always easy. is that a group of people I see in the distance? I lie to myself. Then I start seeing them. I run fast enough that they won't see me unless looking. Nyx and canis are talking on the ground with their backs to me. Dreamer is laying on the side of the building (an outside one) with gravity doing what she wants it to. She sees me and smiles. I run in between the talkers and run up a building. I run up 10 feet and spin off and finally slow down enough so that they can see me. I sit down in the air about chair site.

Dreamer changes gravity and slides down the wall.
"What do you guys want to do?" I ask.
"Let's check out the base, we made a game involving both levels, and it should work better with four people." Nyx says.
"Take me there the fastest way." I say, hoping to play before waking up, knowing that I have been down here a while and this is the first REM cycle.

They take me back through some buildings, I wake up.

Awesome dream, Sensei! I love playing with gravity in dreams, but I don't do it often enough!

I love that we're finding multiple members in our dreams lately. This collective team that's forming is awesome!

I know! I don't know if I explained it well enough. Lol. You were laying on the building, which when looking from the ground, you were rightside up. Oh wait! I have an idea. I think ill have time to do something awesome for this dream. messing with gravity is the best.

I hope I have some more dreams with the group. It is pretty fun. Wish i could have played that game.

Ok, here is the where I found Fris dream:

Finding Fris
I am trying to lead meditation for my mom and sister. My mom criticizes me for laying out the cushions incorrectly. I have already had to interrupt my own meditation to help them, so I am not pleased. My sister is taking a very long time to get here! I finally say f*** this and get into my car and drive off.

I am driving through my hometown, and suddenly appear in the city where I live. I am driving through a college campus. I know I need to get to work soon, but realize I did not tell my wife where I was going. I reach for the phone to call her, but realize I have my old phone from college, and that I will not be able to contact her on this. I also realize I've brought my cat along by mistake, and that when I open the car door she will probably get out, and not be able to defend herself. I am starting to get stressed out by current events!

I find myself now walking in a mall that also happens to be a college campus, and it occurs to me that I might be dreaming. I do a nose pinch and can breathe. Lucid. I pause for a moment to just breathe and look around. Everything becomes strikingly vivid. I try to remember my tasks. At first, nothing comes, but then . . . Find Fris! I set off. I am very happy to have remembered the goal! I try to call Fris on my old phone, but this does not work. The phone only has one large green button in the center, and when I press this, I hear a voice come out, but for whatever reason (can't remember now) I am not satisfied with what I hear. I think I toss the phone away.

I begin running around calling out, "Where's Fris? Where's Fris?" A DC stops me and says he's found him. He points to a storefront ad for cigarettes. The add has a silhouette of a cartoon character on the front. I tell the DC that this is not good enough and continue my search. Different DCs stop me, either with rumors or reports, or just false information. As I am making my way down the thoroughfare, I notice an extremely beautiful DC -- maybe the most beautiful woman I've ever seen -- walking past me. I almost lost the objective and run after her, but then wrench my eyes away and continue on. Other male DCs were looking at her as well!

A friend from WL finally stops me as I am ascending some stairs and points me in another direction. "I just saw Fris over there, but watch out, because there is a crowd." I'm like, "Wtf, a crowd?" I run over to this spot and have to shove some DCs out of the way to get to the inner circle. Fris is sitting on a brick bench. He is a rapper, and all of the people are his fans. I ask him if he is really Fris, and he says, "Yeah, yeah." I wonder if I have to do anything else to meet the task. I ask Fris for his autograph (I mean, he is a famous rapper, right?). Fris agrees and is signing my paper when he sees my ring. He asks me if I am a mason. I say yes, I am. We talk about Freemasonry! Fris has all of these interesting skull rings on. He then asks me if he can hold my ring. I say certainly. He tries to work the ring off of my finger, but he is going so slowly. "Just pull it off," I say, "You're being too gentle." He finally gets it off and is examining it. By this time the crowd has dispersed (they walk away as we are talking). He takes out a lock-smithing tool kit and begins fiddling with my ring. I realize that he is trying to resize the ring to his own finger! I get kind of pissed about this, but then remember I am dreaming and that he can't do anything to my ring. I just shrug and watch. He is very meticulous. I then contemplate whether or not I've removed my ring in WL, and seem to feel my WL hand holding my ring. At this point the dream destabilizes and I wake up.

Just curious -- would this count as bonus TotM? I did have a lot of fun finding Fris, and I enjoyed our chat before he tried to jack my ring!

Haha, that's hilarious! I love this dream!

I'd say it would count for TotM - just post it in the thread and I'm sure some wings will come your way.

Good work finding Fris! I can't believe you even managed to resist the temptation of chasing after the most beautiful woman you've ever seen - I like your determination!

Keep it up, you guys are a great team!

Wow! Good job sir! That's too awesome that you wanted to find me more than running off with the most beautiful woman you've seen! Love it

Time for me to step up my game and get them LDs

Though I will most likely have one soon, usually when I take a break from LD'ing and come back it usually only takes a week and a half, so im looking for a partner that only gets Maybe 1-3 LD's every 2 weeks

But just a heads up, like I said im just getting back into LD'ing so i may only get 0-1 Ld a week

Well I'm at about 1-2LD's a week and rising, it'd be cool to partner up if you're willing So many dream goals to get done!

No lucids tonight :/, but I dreamed about some DV member. Since I am going to Australia for a year in 2015/16 and spent the last weekend surfing I think I mixed those two together. I was in Sidney Harbour on the water and someone came up to me on his board and told me about some secret waves under the bridge and that only DV members are supposed to know about them. Damn things like this usually get me lucid!

Make sure you come visit me in Australia!

Good luck with your dreams tonight!

I had a DEILD chain the other night where I encountered Dreamer in a non-lucid portion of the dream!

She’s holding her other foot over her head almost straight up in the air like some kind of crazy ballet move.

The next few pictures show different angles of a similar scene from a Japanese manga and I see that she’s just creating some favorite piece of a manga she likes. I think that this looks dangerous but I chuckle at her cleverness.

Oh! And in addition to that, a couple days ago I had another mention of Dreamer that was pretty hilarious but I don't think counts as a point.

Spoiler for Funny but no points:

I'm standing in the back of a meeting room watching a PowerPoint presentation being given by some stuffed shirt in the federal government. It's a pretty formal presentation so even though I'm a little bored I act like I'm paying attention.

At some point during the presentation, an artsy-looking, colorful slide full of antiwar bullet points pops up and the stuffed shirt looks all flustered. I start laughing because I know that Dreamer somehow inserted this into the presentation. For some reason the presenter has no choice but to read all of the bullet points in full and he looks super uncomfortable while he does this. Many of the attendees look confused and irritated. I make a mental note to describe this delightfully awkward moment to Dreamer later.

Dreamer
vs
CanisLucidus

Start date: July 13th, 2014.

Current Score:

Dreamer: 9 (1 NLD, 1 bonus LD, 1 bonus NLD)

CanisLucidus: 11 (1 NLD, 1 bonus LD, 1 bonus NLD, bonus first!)

All of your dreams are so amazing Canis, I love them!
That sneaky anti-war presentation is totally something I would do! Your unconscious mind has my personality pinned!

I have a non-lucid dream to add for double points later, I just need to write it up...
I'm going to have a nap first, so I'll be seeing you soon!

Welcome to the comp, Merlin!
We'll wait for Kman to return and you guys can begin! :pillowfight:

Merlin, Ill do it with you starting tonight okay?

Just not getting anything close. I did dream about (someone was talking about) a girl with purple hair, though

Your DC has been rather evasive, Sensei. Tried to summon you yesterday but to no avail.

Got a short non-ld where you explained you have no TV and I was wondering how you play console games.

Ha, that's awesome! Nice incubation!

Great work everyone, I'll updates scores later (and I'll move your start date forward, Kman & Merlin.)

I have a Canis lucid to post later for 3 points.

Oh yessss, had 5 lucids last night!
Kinda found FryingMan, I hope this one counts since I didnt know for sure if it was him..

FryingMan's silky hand

Good luck everyone!
