Thread: Sensei's Competition

Night #3 No lucids, but I recalled two full dreams with lot of detail.
Dreams 2 - points

Total ( 3 nights) - 7.5

Not a good night:

2 dreams: 2
2 fragments: 1
____________

3 points

(27 points for three nights?)

Sensei - will you put up the points in your first post, like Scionox used to? It would be great for motivation to see where one stands and how the teams are doing!

So I was watering the plants in my underwear, on my WBTB this night. And I was thinking, I think it would be pretty fun and interesting to know what others do on their WBTB. It can function as a kind of proof that you really did a WBTB, the same way you have to post dreams. And it can give you some good idea's perhaps.
Maybe something for the next time?

Ok here is my Night #3:

LD 1:
Lucid: 5 Points
RC/Stabilize: 1 Point
Interact with DC: 2 Points
Eat something: 4 Points
Element Manipulation: 8 points
TL;DR of the dream: I fought off 3 DC's while breathing ice and fire. Oh, and I ate someones face.
Sub total: 20 Points

LD #2:
Lucid: 5 Points
RC/Stabilize: 1 Point
Object/DC Changing: 4 points
Advanced Summoning: 10 points
Sub total: 20 Points
TL;DR of the dream: I went to bed in my FA, got lucid in that dream, created some DC's, then had another FA

Other Points:
1 Full dream: 1 Point
1 Fragment: 0.5 Points
1 DV Extra Task/Personal goal: 5 points
WBTB: 2 Points
Sub total: 8.5 Points

Total night #3:
48.5 Points

Total overall:
77.5 Points

Some additional questions:
Does breathing fire/ice fall under element manipulation?
Does creating strings of color in clear view and slowly molding them into a DC count as advanced summoning?
And does it count as eating, if I spit out most of it? (It was really gross)
I think so, but English is not my native language. I just want to be sure here. I would be more than happy to remove points if you guys disagree with me.

Here are the dreams.

Just realized I never posted a link to my DJ from the night before last:

Learning to Fly (lucid!); "Dad, you're a jerk"; "Don't Tread on Me!"; "Field Trip! (Lucid!)" - Dream Journals - Lucid Dreaming - Dream Views

Last night was lucid, but did not remember the goals. Thought I was back in high school, and had fallen asleep somewhere to have a lucid dream However, did successfully RC and even used a digital watch lol SO . . . .

Question: if I consciously make my body lighter in the dream, in order to assist with climbing/floating, does that count for anything? I don't think it does, but figured I'd better check. Once again, I try to practice flying in this dream, with little success. I think I may have managed something, but C/R so not putting it up for points.

2 frags = 1
1 dream = 1
1 LD = 5
WBTB = 2

RC = 1
Device = 4

Nightly total = 14
Comp total = 104.5

I will update my DJ for last night as soon as I can.

EDIT: I realize I looked at my watch as part of a reality check, and so was not fully lucid yet, so removing four points from total.

Comp total = 100.5

Sorry I haven't posted! I was out of town, but I have been keeping track.

2 dreams: 2 points
3 fragments: 1.5 points
WBTB (fail :c): 2 points

Total: 5.5 points

Yeah another tier-3-er secretly slumming with us here in tier 2, probably

Yeah, we gotta get the big guns out!
I've found that all the prospective memory training is paying off, cuz if I resisit the earge to just fall asleep and spend 10 minutes to MILD, I actually do get a MUCH bigger chance to have a LD!
It's time to fight that earge! I didn't train my will power for nothing!
But too bad tonight I'm sleeping at my mom's and here I get only 5 hours sleep cuz I sleep in the couch and my mom wakes up 5 am, after sleeping at midnight! Haha only 5 hours, bad for LDing

Awesome idea, MrPriority! I do not do a lot during my WBTB (mostly DJ and sit in the dark) but am normally awake for at least 20-30 minutes. Turning on a light can wake me up too much!

What kinds of plants do you have, btw?

2 Dreams, 5 Fragments, WBTB - 6.5pts
DILD 1: Remember LD, DC change, Interact DC, Stabilize - 12pts
DILD 2: Remember LD, Interact DC - 7pts
Previous total 7.5 + 25.5 last night + 2 (10 DJ comments first 2 days) =

35pts total

7/30/14 Sensei's Competition Night 3; 2 DILDs, Beautiful Office Girl, Few Points - Dream Journals - Lucid Dreaming - Dream Views

um...lol...

1 dream. 1 point.

I'm one of those that are slumming. I've had a bit of stress and excitement lately but it seems to have passed for the most part. I'll get back on track though the way I usually do.

I honestly do not have a clue. I am merely taking care of the plants. I am not much of a plant person myself I'm afraid. I like my house best, when the only living things in it are human I usually try not to stay awake for over 15 minutes in a WBTB since I can't seem to fall back to sleep if I do. Though I don't mind light at all and I find myself often wandering around the house.
Interesting how different our approaches are

Also, no points last night. Can't even remember 1 dream now I slept really well though!

Ha, no worries. I have recently found myself to definitely be a plant man, though all my herbs are legal I used to get up and read, the way LaBerge recommends in ETWOLD, but after a while realized this really wasn't helping much either way. So now I just opt for the dark room You sound like an "hour of the wolf" kind of guy

Give it the ol' Dolphin_Blow.jpg

Dolphin Blow!

Night 3:

Interesting dreams last night (technically early this morning ). Recall is better. Got a reeeally short LD in which I didn't do much other than put on my glasses and look around.

Math, Mars, and a short LD

2 x 1 - Remember dream
2 x .5 - Remember fragment
5 - Remember LD
1 - RC/stabilize
2 - WBTB

Total: 11 pts
Competition total: 28 points

Off to bed..
I am using a new voice recording app, hope it was worth the 99ct
Good Luck everybody!

@Everyone
If you check in my signature, you will see that a secret has been unveiled.

@Nightfeather
RCs rarely actually "make" you lucid. It is a good way to start an LD though. I don't think that I have ever just RCed and been like "WHAT THE SHEOL!?" I normally am like "WHAT THE SHEOL!?" and then I RC. Now I have a more "feeling-based" RC, so it is a bit different.

Meh... - Dream Journals - Lucid Dreaming - Dream Views
Not a great dream. Got some points thanks to podcasts being on my mind.
3 Dreams = 3 points
Remember a lucid = 5 points
WBTB = 2 points

RC/Stabilize = 1 point
Interact with DC = 2 points

Meet an enemy = 5 points

Total = 18 points + 95 points = 113 points

I am going to update points halfway through the competition. I have little time actually on DV in the next couple days. If something super special awesome comes up I could be able to update them sooner.

1 fragment - 0.5

Total - 1.5
Total altogether - 6.5

Day 4:
Nothing at all lol
Yeah I slept badly, I can barely sleep at my mom's, it's too small of a house.
Also I'm leaving now so it'll be a few days before I update since I only bet access to net at my mom's.

Run home early and grab a nap!

I dreamt a lot last night, no lucids, but couldn't gather the will to record during the night so memory is sketchy unfortunately.
