Thread: Spellbee2's Summer Lucid Competition 2016

I've just returned from trip and I'm ready to participate in the competition. I'm glad to see new faces and old lucid mates, good luck all!

three step task:

1. fly
2. telekinesis
3. teleport

goal: teleport in a new way - for example using blanket like dolphin wrote

Got some good results this time. Woulda gone for three DILDs instead of one if I were just a little bit more inquisitive during a few dreams.

Results for Sunday 31 July 2016

Non-Lucid = 1
Fragments = 2 * 1/2
WBTB = 2
First DILD = 10

Reality Check/Stabalization = 1
Fly = 5
Use an Electronic Object = 5

Teleport = 10
Fully Phase Through Big Solid Object = 10

Today's Total: 45

Competition Total: 50

Also, I'm a little unclear on certain things. First, is how to score that "Codec Device", which is a (fictional) implanted communication device. Would that count as an "electronic device", or "unspecified dream control"? Quite sure it's not an "ordinary" object... How about summoning the wrong target? Would that count for scores at all? And did that quip count as "interaction"?

On a side note, I'll probably be a little slow to comment on other's logs. There's just so much dream entries I have to catch up with here besides those part of the competition, heh.

so you couldn't claim you transformed into a cat = Full Transformation
and then also claim werewolf power for subsequently transforming into a WareWolf in the same dream (because that would be a second Full Transformation in the same dream)

my clarification is should people be able to claim multiple unspecified per dream (or only one per dream)
so if I created a pink shield and claimed +5 and then performed earth bending and claimed it was another +5 in the same dream
(I think only 1 per dream should be allowed, but N per night)

(this morning I managed to become lucid tho I had a false awakening and almost forgot the lucid but I got to step 1 and 2 as well so I should have +45 or more today) [off to the hospital]

Oh...Hm...That's a tuff question but I think only one per dream should be allowed to count too. That way it makes it more of a competition. But earth bending is elemental bending so wouldn't you just get 10 points for that since its advanced? : ) Well congrats on getting that many points. If anything Spellbee2 will explain why it is that way to us and check your points for you.

Another disappointing night LD-wise for me. However, due to being cold af last night I kept waking up and I strategically placed my laptop beside my bed so I could record my dreams everytime I woke up .

WBTB (Failed): 2 points
Recall 5 full dreams (non-LD): 5 points
Recall 2 fragments: 1 point
Total of the night: 8 Points
Competition Total: 12 points

Now let's hope I figure out my shit for tomorrow, my last day I get to sleep in during the competition (it seems), hopefully I can bring a good WILD home for team Mystic.

2 regular dreams = 2 points

Competition total = 3

Ya see this? This is why I wish we could score a little more for recall and such.

Spellbee2:, let me know if you think that some of these multiple dreams should only be counted for a single dream. I know you pretty much have to make divisions across the WBTBS, but I was unsure of counting these since they were pretty much separate, but plot threads seemed to pass through them on a weird convoluted timeline. Way I see it, It's only a matter of a few points, so it shouldn't make much of a difference.

^^" I'm going to try and calculate the points correctly this time. If you see any mistake I'd appreciate some help. Thanks!

Competition | Night 2 | Recall still mostly kill - Dream Journals - Lucid Dreaming - Dream Views

0.5 points today, hopefully recall will improve.

How did you know that I picked Valor also at the Pokemon thing?

Three step task: Experience all states of matter at the example of a lake:
1. walk on the water (fluid state; levitation)
2. then freeze the lake (frozen state; advanced element manipulation)
3. afterwards boil it until no water is left (gas state; again advanced element manipulation/unsummoning)
4. bonus step: refill the lake with fresh water

Personal goals
NEW:
- Transform into a plant, then clone and spread myself by asexual reproduction
- Go OOBE and drag a team member out of body, too
- Play pokemon. Summon a StarTrek Tribble. Convince another DC that Tribble is a real and valid Pokemon
- Make a melody appear. Memorize it, wake myself and try to remember/recreate it in waking life.

OLD:
- Meet a dancing teacher, learn something „new“
- Participate in a nice game of Quidditch
- Transform into a bird and fly like a bird

First competition night (27->30.)
- 3 full dreams
- WBTB (failure)

Second competition night (30.->31)
- 1 Fragment
- WBTB (failure with huge headache)

Day 3 Results:

Night Total: 5.5 points

Competition Total: 32 points

Dang, catching up on all the questions.

Sorry, didn't see this question until now.

Just like the rest of the Dream Control tasks, Unspecified Dream Control can be counted only once per dream, but an unlimited number of times per night.

There's a checkbox under the reply box for "Show My Signature". Unfortunately, if you don't have it checked on old posts, it doesn't show up on those. I've had signatures on all of my posts, so that's why it updated on the OP.

Is it just a power SpellBee hasn't mentioned?

Dream control tasks count as points no matter what the context is (as long as you're lucid). The points for doing things with teammates/enemies are just bonus points that go on top of that.

Sounds like an electronic device. And from your description in your DJ, it sounds like you didn't necessarily summon the character as much as they just appeared. And I don't know if it counts as interaction - again, it sounds like they just showed up on their own, said some stuff, and then disappeared. But I don't know, that's just what I picked up from your DJ - you ultimately know how it went in the dream. But for now, with the Electronic Device, that comes to 45 points.

Yup, earthbending is elemental bending.

Seems fine to me. It's sometimes hard to tell where breaks between dreams are, but it's pretty much up to you, since you'd know best.

Not just that. An "enemy" is someone on one of the other two teams. I could've sworn I had explained that in the original rules, but I didn't see that, so I'll go ahead and clarify.

As for my points:

WBTB - 2
1 fragment - 0.5
1 DILD - 10

Night 2 - 12.5 pts
Competition Total - 19 pts

Spoiler for Lucid Part:

I'm playing with one of my cats on the floor of my living room. I suddenly remember that she passed away a few weeks ago, so I realize that I'm dreaming, though I'm still not entirely thinking straight. My other cat comes up too, and I seem to think that because she's in my dream, she's passed away too. A third, black cat with bright yellow eyes comes over as well, and it has a weird presence about it, like it's a ghost. But it's still incredibly playful, so I play with it until I wake up.

Day 2 30th/31st 8:00p to 8:00p
+2 WBTB
+1 Fragments 2 at 10:40p and 12:10p then insomnia
+3 Non-Lucid dreams 3
4:25a cage of trouble (birds and many creatures)
5:45a security breach / dictator assassination / Greek fire coffins
6:20a embalming / horses

+10 First DILD 7:15a Steppin Two Da' Void
+1 RC/stabilize
+5 eat something
+5 First Step
+5 pocket summonation
+5 use an electronic device
+10 Second step

Spoiler for Steppin Two Da' Void:

I was at work and I was looking at some blue chairs that represented people with overtime, and I wanted to switch the chairs so that a certain person could be able to come in (thinking they weren't there because they were sick), then I decided not to switch the chairs, some workers seemed to recognize me and I was thinking about the person I wanted to come in, I began to think that this person was not sick but that my relative was sick. I was then outside with two relatives and we needed to cross a street, they went to a crosswalk and made it across, but I headed the other way and then thought I should just run across the street, I ran and jumped but it had become like a divided road with the other lane quite a few feet below, and I had over jumped, and was going to overshoot and fall like 20 feet down but then I decided to reality check [+1 Reality Check] in the air by jumping again, I altered my path, then when I hit the ground I knew I was dreaming [+10 First DILD] so I thought of goals for contest and thought of eat something so I grabbed some grass and ate it [+5 Eat Something][+5 First Step] the grass was like a branching kind with lots of 45 degree angles but small with tiny wheat like extensions of the terminal divides, it didn't taste like much I chewed it and swallowed it. Then I thought of some other goal invulnerability [Zero Fail] and I took a run at an oncoming car that was a large sedan. But then I thought that is not one of my three steps, so I thought of phasing thru [Zero Fail and out of order](my third step), I barely made it to the sedan and was grazed off with little force, then I remembered the use of an electronic device. I was loosing the dreamscape so i began to stabilize [No points RC already] by rubbing my hands together but I lost the dreamscape and was in the void, then I decided I could summon my phone in the void if I could rub with one hand so I was rubbing my left hand on my stomach and then I pocket summoned my phone from my right pocket [+5 Minor Summonation] with my right hand, I couldn't see to dial the thing but found some light come up a bit, I saw a door and tried to use the door to return a stable dreamscape, when I opened the door, my brother was like sleeping outside in some kind of wheelbarrow or something, I woke him and he was complaining about how long it had been, where had i been or some such and wanted to go in, I was telling him I was loosing the dream light and needed to dial the phone, I managed to connect [+5 Use an Electronic Device][+10 Second Step] but it was a long distance number so I hung up immediately, I became concerned with the phone bill and lost lucidity, then I remembered my phone actually has no service, then I false awakened I was sitting in a chair with my two relatives and two other people and was telling them about the dream and the possible bill, I decided the dream could have taken place in Sacramento or Washington DC I was going to journal the dream but suddenly I was outside and trying to find the train to Washington DC I ran along and came to a tall pillar I was going up the pillar pretty much spider-man style [ZERO Points Non-Lucid] both hands up then both legs over and over again, suddenly I realized I was quite high, I began to fear I would fall and slid back down, I decided to do a reality check, I jumped and then came down with a convincing amount of force and thought this is what reality feels like, suddenly I saw a landmark that indicated I must be in Philadelphia, I heard some people talking about crazy people and could see people down below thru holes in the road/ground, I was trying to think of how to get to Washington DC from here, but woke up

Lucid time approximately 1 minute

Night 2 Total +47
Contest Total +63

Considering all the stress I have been super lucky, but I think the extra weekend helped, every contest before I always had some lucid or several just before the contest began at this normal 8:00PM Sunday time. Weekends and usually lack of stress are the key to me becoming lucid.

(Since both Lucids were followed by false awakenings I could just have easily lost them)

If I barely double the score from here on in I'll think I did OK, but I'll keep my goal set at 4 Lucids as minimal hope, 5 Lucids as Par, and 6 Lucids as GOOD My insomnia will likely get worse as stress builds but on weekends maybe this insomnia after initial 3-4 hours of sleep and then 3-4 hours of insomnia, followed by the last 3-4 hours of rebound sleep has been the reason for my Lucids the past two late mornings.

I have posted off both Wednesdays as well as some time next Thursday and the Following Monday and Thursday to try to sleep in, but with so much uncertainty I just don't know how well I can do

night 1
Dreams = 2 points

night 2
Dreams = 3 points
Wbtb = 2 points

Total = 7 points

Moving tomorrow, been a crazy couple of days (and stayed up for 42 hours from Thursday to Friday night smh) getting things ready.

Thanks for clearing up the "fight the enemy". But not really... I really thought that it was the other way. I mean how does someone fight someone they don't know? You just give them a name? You just imagine them as a what, their icon? It just doesn't make sense to me. Any suggestions would be really nice because I guess I'm either just too stupid or have just missed the details somewhere.

This night was better. If only I turned lucid in that fragment instead of only thinking about it...

you intent to summon a specific enemy and "know" it is him (or atleast the manifestation of your unconscious image of that person). if you like you can ask for a picture or read some more about the user or think about in waking how you imagine him. in the end no matter how the DC looks aslong as your intention was to summon this specific DC and feel like this it the one. it actually is pretty funny to do so and see what your subc. come up with
