Thanks for putting this all together, it was awesome. Hopefully next time I'll be a little more consistent with my LDs and maybe make it to the upper league. |

Hey, I have been getting a lot of requests for "add this to the competition!" or "add this to the competition!" so I decided to make a thread for suggestions! I am not promising that I will take your advice, but it would be nice to have it all compiled in one place. Don't forget to check and see if there are any other people's suggestions that you like so that you can tell me if you agree with them or not so that I can get a consensus (I may or may not take the advice still |

My aspirations for dreaming:
May I always use the dream state to develop positive, virtuous qualities that will bring benefit to all beings!
May I always recognize the dream state and use it to develop wisdom, love, and compassion!
Comment/Addition to FryingMan's Suggestions: |

What I do for a sense of time is replay an event in my mind during recall, and with waking awareness, estimate how much waking time the same interaction would have taken. |

Personal Records so far: Max lucids per day: 2 | Max lucids per week: 4 | Max lucids per month: 8 | Max dreams recalled in one night: 17
Longest lucid dream: ~35min | Highest flight: zoomed out of common existence [WTF?] | Fastest speed: FTL | DILD/EILD/DEILD [X] | WILD/VILD [X] | MILD/FILD/HILD [ ]
Interested to know how I got 17 dreams in one single night? And how I think I still could Improve? Check out my new and improved Dream Recall Compendium: The Dream Recall Compendium
Okay, here are some points in addition to what it was said above: |
|
I kinda get the point, but then again I think that the WBTB is the counterpart to the nap. Both the WBTB and the nap actually take some of their appeal from polyphasic sleeping, which allows to sleep less per day while maintaining the same level of REM sleep, dreams and rest. As such polyphasic sleeping is something highly desirable for those that can indulge in it, and as such I think it'd be fair to get points for shorter naps if you can get points for short breaks from sleeping (WBTB). That way you can get points for effort with both polyphasic and monophasic sleep. |

^^ Yeah I think everyone's sleep schedule is their own thing. The competition is just about dreaming, and whenever/wherever one can sleep and dream, that's up to them. |

I'd be happy to have just one LD in a nap, ever. I practically never recall dreams from naps unless they're really long like 3+ hours, which is more like a mini-sleep. |

I fill my heart with fire, with passion, passion for what makes me nostalgic. A unique perspective fuels my fire, makes me discover new passions, more nostalgia. I love it.
