Thread: Contest of the Month May 2018

Hello!


Since the competition is over and people seems to be in their peak performance I would love to setup another friendly contest for better motivation in course of May.
Unlike classic competition, it's not mainly focused on dream control and lucid activities. It is less time consuming and more casual, because posting digital dream journal entry on Dreamviews is optional and scoring is simplified.

LIVE SCORESHEET

(Scoresheet is updated every week on Monday or more frequently)


Rules


- There is no need for registration, just write your first post not later than 10th of May and you are signed in
- Continuously post your results at least once every 4 days if possible in the contest's thread which starts on 3. May at 20:00 of your local time
- Contest ends 3. June at 11:00 a.m. your local time
- No cheating!
- Use healthy self-criticism
- Posting your dreams on Dreamviews DJ is optional, since lot of people dont record their dreams in english and in digital for, so it is less consuming to write it twice with translation, but if any interesting experience is involved, everyone apreciate your sharing
- Recording your dreams in your own way of dream journaling is necessary for valid points (paper/electronic/audio), but no need for showing evidence. (Be honest to yourself)


Skill level categories


Expert - 1 lucid/2 nights to 1+ lucids/night

Intermediate - 1 lucid/week to 1 lucid/3 nights

Beginner - less than 1 lucid/week

(Players are evenly distributed according to their points)



Points categories



Wbtbs (Wake back to bed)

- For valid points do some activity like dreamjournaling, reading or better wake up from bed and do some activity that makes you more awake and aware from the usual groggy state in the bed (walking, sitting and reading, eating, stretching...) Choose what form suits your wbtb the best
- 1 wbtb = 1 point
- limit of wbtbs is 3 per night (max 3 points a night)
- for valid points, you don't need to become lucid after wbtb


Dream recall

Non lucid dreams
- for valid points dreams are recorded by your method (written by hand, pc, audio record...)
- 1 recalled dream fragment = 0,5 point (fragments from the same dream are limited by total 1 point and it can't exceed 1 point for the full dream from the same dream) Same dream means your remembering specified theme or connection in one dream
- 1 non lucid dream recorded = 1 point ( memory of action or series actions in one dream)
- semi lucid counts as non lucid dreams

Lucid dreams
- 1 lucid dream recorded = 5 points ( If it's series of DEILDs, it's 5 points for all DEILDs in total. Advantage for Deilders is in lucid dream time category)
- semi-lucid dream is not counting as a lucid dream, but as non lucid dream


Lucid dream time
(you get points for recorded dreams + lucid dream time points)

- one of the main pillar in this contest is to focus on the ongoing time in lucid state and knowing the precise lucidity duration, always keep this on mind
- longer lucidity = more points
- be sober in estimating the time spended in lucid dream
- 5 minutes being lucid in a dream = 1 point

0,1-5 minutes category = 2 point
6-10 minutes category = 4 points
11-15 minutes category = 6 points
16-20 minutes category = 8 points
20+ minutes = 10 points
Maximum points in one lucid dream time is 10 points
(for example 42 minutes dream time = 10 points)
(for example 14 minutes dream time = 6 points)
Every single lucid dream has its own points for lucid time


Scoring template

- please try to post your points clearly and simple but choose your own way. For example my system:

Day 1
1 wbtb = 1 point
3 fragments = 1,5 points
2 dreams = 2 points
1. lucid dream = 5 points
10 minutes in lucid dream time = 4 points
2. lucid dream = 5 points
22 minutes in lucid dream time = 10 points

night total = 28,5

contest total = 28,5 points


Prices

Winners in lucid time and each skill group will be remembered as COOL GUY of the month and will be awarded community hall points, which can be spent in dreamviews market!

CONTEST STARTS 3. May 20:00 P.M. OF YOUR LOCAL TIME, GOOD LUCK!
