Well be careful of what you wish for: i had an epic, movie-like dream, 10+ scenes across 2-3 major themes, perhaps taking up an entire REM cycle, and it's just going to count for one point :(. It was cool, though :)

I think the point is that there ARE more things to do if you can't check off multiple different scoring categories with a single dream action. Having to have multiple LDs in order to get the points is more motivating. For more LDs, not less. Anyway you had such an awesome night I think you should go create a dozen or so persistent universes or something :)Quote:

2 fragments: 1 point.
Miserable night number 2.
Had a nice NL (ofc!!) dream where I was doing my exciting IT job (hey who doesn't love to dream about work) and my boss was Patterson from Sons of Anarchy :)
Another one where some weird stuff was going on around a giant face on an outdoor sign minority report style that I don't think it qualifies as a dream.
So...
1 Dream - 1
1 Fragment - 0.5
Comp Total - 5.5 Points
Cmon Snakes top THAT!
Noooo!!! No recall, not even a fraemt for night number two. I rember only what I was thinking upon waking up, and that I am calm this morning, but from before I woke up: nothing.
Total continues to be 1/2 point (from last night)
Whats up with all that bad recall, it also hit me tonight again!
I think that might even was the crappiest recall I've ever had since starting to LD... :bang:
Well I got only 2 super short dreams and with the worst quality.

Spoiler for RCs (Warning, spiders!):
I'm not sure if the RCs give points as they didn't make me lucid but are listed under Dream Control. But I think that we should get points for them because nearly getting lucid should be rewarded as well.
Ditto on the idea that RCs should count even if fail. My LD count for 2013-14 is 9.5 because I count a dream during which I had surprisingly high awareness for a nonlucid, and conducted multiple RCs all of which failed, though I knew that this could not be happening, but I concluded that I am going insane - I count that dream as a half lucid. Also I think there is a difference in dreaming about RCs but with no awareness (just going through the motions in a dream) and actually questioning one's state in a dream but not succeeding in full lucidity, and I think the later should count.
2. day no lucids last night :whyme:
2f - 1p
2d - 2p
wbtb - 2p
total = 105p
I was gonna reach for the stars. But instead I grabbed the sun. Not a bad start I'd say.
Night #2
Ok so I just had the most amazing LD I have ever had. I finally did a bunch of things in a LD! It was like 20 minutes long!! :woohoo:
I never achieved my goal in the dream, but along the way I did a bunch of other stuff. And more importantly, had an amazing dream!
Here are all the points I counted:
Remember a fragment: 2x = 1 point
Remember a LD: 1x = 5 points
DEILD: 2 points
WBTB: 2 points
RC/Stabilize: 1 point
Interact with a DC: 2 points
Flying: 4 points
Teleport: 7 points
Three step task:
My first one was teleportation, so there is another 5 points.
Which comes to a grand total of 29 points.
Honestly, I never thought I'd get so many points. And I am completely thrilled to have had such an awesome dream!
I would like to thank Sensei and all of you guys here. I think the competition really motivated me to get to the next level. I now finally feel like a true Lucid Dreamer. Thanks guys! (and girls)
You're all the best! :hugitout:
Here is my dream
:giraffe:
Very happy - my first comp lucid last night - but a short one, and I hadn't made a proper lucid plan, unfortunately.
So - that had me hovering over a beautiful lake and trying to remember what it was that I wanted to do with my hand - instead of searching for something solid to put it through (3-stepper) - I tried to partially transform my arm and hand into the neck and head of a swan!
This even worked quite nicely up to a point - the last I remember was really concentrating to make my hand sprout eyes of it's own. Shame that didn't come to pass - I would have loved finding out, if I would have been able to see with four eyes like that!
Competition Entry # 2 - Dream Journals - Lucid Dreaming - Dream Views
1 fragment: 0.5
3 dreams: 3
1 LD: 5
WBTB: 2
stabilizing: 1
flying: 4
partial transformation: 4 (hope that counts, even while I didn't finish it completely)

Night #2
No lucids. I did had lot of dreams though. I had about 5 dreams, but can only remember 2 dreams and 2 fragment. After yesterday's bad recall this felt good.
In one of the fragment I was playing a video game on a giant outdoor screen in a cool hillside resort by a water fountain overlooking the hills. It was beautiful, can't seem to recall the game. Wish this was lucid as it was one of 3-step task :bang:.
2 dreams - 2
2 fragment - 1
Total from 2 nights - 5.5
clone wife sex army - Dream Journals - Lucid Dreaming - Dream Views
Hmmm... Will post points later.
Night #2:
DJ: Can't Post Spoilers
I had really poor recall for the first ¾ of the night, because I kept getting woken up by my dogs and instantly losing my dream memories. I was feeling pretty disappointed, but I had a nice lucid comeback at the end of the night. I can't post the LD here yet, because it contains spoilers for a secret DV project I'm working on. I've sent it to Sensei privately as proof of these points, but I'll update my DJ when we launch the project publicly! :lipssealed:

Yikes...94 posts, I got some catching up to do in more ways than one. No good last night and not expecting too much tonight with a game which is usually exhausting. I did finally plan out what exactly I would like to do when I become lucid, so there's that going for me.
3 fragments, 1 wbtb: 3.5pts/7.5pts total
Edit: I have the wrong attitude. Even though I might be exhausted tonight, I can still LD! I may also need a little of that "If I do, I do; If I don't, no worries."
3.5 points for dreams, had a short lucid this morning which I will post later.
Whew, I was lucky last night, managed a couple of lucids. My youngest was sick overnight so I wasn't sure whether I'd be able to make anything happen. (I need to be lucky in this competition... you folks are lucidity animals!!) :o Great job, all, I'm impressed and intimidated.
