Last time it was 8pm so I am quite sure Sensei meant: 8pm participant's local time Friday January 23, 2015.
Looking forward to it! Keep in mind that it seems like Sensei is trying to make this the best one yet so let's give him a little breathing room. :)
Yup now Thursday evening my time...
I don't mind sharing strategies. I am somewhat competitive but am more of a "whatever is better for the whole" kind of guy. Even without competition specifics yet, we pretty much know that dream control abilities will be a significant way to accrue points. Last competition I planned too long of a scenario that I wanted to do when next lucid to rack up a bunch of points and thus wore myself out due to going through that long scenario in my day practices...and losing motivation for any day practices! This time I plan to use a "mnemonic peg system" (see web or Daniel Love's book). I have also successfully used such a system to commit dreams to memory before opening my eyes and getting up and also during LD's. In this case I will just plan to think "pegs" when I become lucid and attempt to recall each one as I go. IWL it is incredibly quick and easy to learn a list of 10 or even 20 items.
So the start of the competition is Friday at 8pm. Does that mean that dreams we had the previous night might be able to count or do we have to have the dreams after that point in time for them to count?
Sensei can correct me if I am wrong, but with 8pm being an early bed time for most people, the start time seems to be meant to capture dreams occurring Friday night to Saturday morning but not the night before. So dreams occurring after 8pm Friday your time.
Gotcha. That makes sense!
Competition time moved again!
Ok! So we have the thread nearly finished (one or two minor things left to fix for your convenience), but since it is quite close to the starting point (might even be the starting point for some) I am going to be postponing another day. I am putting the thread up momentarily, but the start time will be Saturday at 8PM, your time. I apologize for making yall think it was earlier, I underestimated what watching two kids all day long would be like haha. This new start sate should be more convenient for everyone and give you a chance to really look at the new rules so you can set up some goals, incubations, 3 step tasks, etc.
I know that some of you might be frustrated by this, but honestly, it really isn't an inconvenience for you to wait a day to start doing something. ;P

I am sorry I didn't mention this sooner, but after looking over the previous competition, I don't think that you should be in the lower league. The lower league is for beginners, not for people struggling. I believe that your league shouldn't be chosen by how good you are doing, but by how good you are at lucid dreaming. Two weeks is enough time for anyone to get out of a slump (72 hours is the amount that makes the most difference in my opinion), so I believe in you three. Lets see which one of you comes out of your slump first. Competition seems to bring out the best in people, so lets watch it spark you guys to a whole new level. :)
The competition times are a dream "starting and finish line" so the dreams must occur after the start and before the finish. All times are your local time, so some people will start up to 24 hours before others, but will finish that same amount before others, because of time zones.Quote:

Good luck, dreamers! :superman:
