Just added my points from last night. For those interested, here is the link:
http://www.dreamviews.com/lucid-chal...ml#post2146380

I am now at 529 points. :3

I am hoping to update scores tomorrow. If the time allows. don't hold me to that, if I have another killer night like tonight I will be spending that time DJing and counting all my points up.

I had a ton of dreams last night, but since I was super lazy and didn't write any of them down, I forgot them all! Also had a scheduled WBTB, but I turned the alarm off and immediately went back to sleep, so I'm not counting it...

4 fragments - 2 pts

Competition Total - 201.5 pts

I'm tempted to bet, but I have a homework assignment that I need to work on, so I'm expecting a late night tonight... Meh, maybe tomorrow.

Nothing, nothing at all lol. Terrible dry spell. I've just been busy and nervous with tests and moving to a new home. Well, I lost a bet too.
But it's OK lol

Competition night 10:
3 dreams - 3 points
1 fragment - 0.5 points
WBTB - 2 points
Night total 5.5 points

http://www.dreamviews.com/blogs/samm...eudo-fa-64066/


Summary of points so far:

Week one: 33 points
Night 8: 3
Night 9: 3
Night 10: 5.5

Competition so far: 44.5 points

At this point, I look like in not even going to match my score from last competition :-(

5 dreams: 5

I need a kick in the a$$: I'm betting for lucid tonight!

personal goals restatement:

incubation: food court at the mall
goal: narrate the dream

I won't claim points for the goal in my LD of last night since it would mean making an exception to the clear rules. I think though that the rules for the next competition should encourage making and meeting goals from an unlimited set of goals, with no limits on repetition. I think achieving our goals is most important: why should we be limited from doing something that we really want to do in dreams? I think repeated achievement of goals in dreams should get points every single time: e.g., first-time achievement of goal: 15 points, repeated achievements: 5 points would be reasonable. Talented dreamers are going to be able to wrack up points no matter what, the real point of the competitions is to push us farther and the achieve our goals. Sensei and Dreamer and everyone have done a great job on this competition, it's a real improvement on earlier ones (which are still great) -- but we can do better!

Current scoring is heavily biased in terms of "doing": I think a whole new component of contemplation, engagement, careful observation (e.g., points for meditating in the dream) should be added.

At this point, I look like in not even going to match my score from last competition :-(

I know the feeling. I did better one year ago when still new to LDing. Need to recapture the beginner's mind, the excitement. Bet on tonight, I am -- the point of the night is TO GET LUCID.

Night 11:
1 whole dream = 1 point
WBTB fail = 2 points

Total = 3 points

2f
1d
wbtb
bet -5
total = 368 - 1 = 367

Sensei's Competition 11th night:

Previous points: 62 Points

1 Fragment: 0,5 points
WBTB: 2 points

Competition total: 64,5 Points

2 dreams= 2 pt.
1 fragments = .5 pt.
WBTB= 2 pts.

Night total: 4.5 pts.

running total: 24.5 + 4.5 = 29

Welp, didn't have any lucids last night, and it's turning out to be a busy morning so no DJ.. again.. :[
1 NLD - 1
WBTB - 2

New Total: 374

3 dreams = 3 points
bet = 5 points

DILD = 10 points
RC = 1 point
interact with DC = 2 points
electronics = 4 points
fly = 4 points

total = 29 points

Total total = 529 + 29 = 558 points

Spoiler for dream:

I am running in a crowd and I run into a friend of mine. That was a dreamer that I ran into... why did I think that? No, this is just a memory of the past in a dream. RC. I help him up and notice a car. I jump into it and start it up, I start driving around and find a wall that is about 100 feet high. I start to fly up the wall and wake up.

Betting on tonight as well. I definitely will be able to take a nap today, and I am 100% sure that I had a lucid dream with RDC and A in it (and their kid), but I don't remember it. I shall post it later if I remember.

Night 11
Not exactly what I had in mind but interesting none the less.

Either NREM lucid or just a weird unembodied LD after mini-awakening and going for DEILD.

3 dreams, 1 fragment, wbtb, 5 DJ's = 6.5pts
LD=10pts
Won bet=5pts
(I also had a semi lucid potential DILD; not counting.)

Previous total: 146.5pts + 21.5 = 168pts

DJ link: http://www.dreamviews.com/blogs/foge...ight-11-64079/

Tried to incubate my Legend of Zelda dream by listening to some soundtracks before bed. No luck, though.

2 dreams - 2 pts
WBTB - 2 pts

Night total - 4 pts
Competition total - 205.5 pts

I can say, I lucked out this one. I am on vacation at a hotel spa. Last night, my wife and I drank a whole bottle of wine and two bottles of champagne... We did not get drunk, but I had a bit of a weird stomach. I woke up several times at night feeling fuzzy and I had a small DILD.

These can only be claimed once in the competition
awesome night Percy!

Edit: I'm pretty sure you can only do unspecified dream control task once per dream as well That's all!

Edit #2: Also, I just noticed that you are counting your lucid dreams as a full dream. From my understanding, full dreams are meant to be non lucid, so you don't get points for it being both a full dream and a lucid dream.

Agreed.

I suppose my body/mind has decided the competition is already over! Lmao, STILL no lucids, just a couple frags and an NLD last night.. jeez... My Dad just came up for a visit and won't be gone 'til the competition really is over, but I can't let that distract me entirely! I still have the energy and time to dream! Just gotta get my butt back in gear.
~Driim~

I bet I'll be lucid tonight!! (not counting any naps I get before 8pm tonight. My bets always start with the first sleep session after 8pm and end at the next 8pm)

1 NLD: 1
2 Fragments: 2
WBTB: 2
Added points for Gravity Changing (pointed out by AnotherDreamer ~here~): 6
