Objective Of The Competition

Explore your dreams and in the process of that, explore yourself! Discover who you are. The points run the same as the last competition. There is a fighting chance for non-lucid dreams, just so they can have some fun too but their standard tasks are capped at 1.0 and advanced at 2.0 (except for the reality check which will only apply for successful lucids), that way, performances by lucid dreamers aren't threatened and if you keep the lucids going, you'll win anyway. But remember, with me, it's all about the fun and improving the general quality of your dreams, including recall. As I have more experience, there will also be some specific team tasks which will have a set high number for lucid dreams and will be capped at 5.0 for non-lucid dreams.



Non-lucid only aspects:
- Recall a full non-lucid dream (1.0)

- Recall a non-lucid fragment (0.5)

- Recall any non-lucid dream over 3 consecutive nights - Can't skip a night or the chain will be broken (an additional 3.0)

- Recall any non-lucid dream over 5 consecutive nights - Can't skip a night or the chain will be broken (an additional 5.0)

- Recall any non-lucid dream over 7 consecutive nights - Can't skip a night or the chain will be broken (an additional 7.0)
NOTE: Once you have completed the 7 night chain, you will have to start your chain again. So the 7 chain would be an expected maximum of 4 times.

Lucid only aspects:
- Recall your first lucid dream of the night (10.0)

- Was induced via DILD (an additional 5.0)

- Was induced via WILD (an additional 5.0)

- Was induced via WBTB (an additional 2.0)

- Subsequent Lucid Dreams: all methods (5.0)

- Recall a lucid dream over 3 consecutive nights - Can't skip a night or the chain will be broken (an additional 9.0)

- Recall a lucid dream over 5 consecutive nights - Can't skip a night or the chain will be broken (an additional 12.0)

- Recall a lucid dream over 7 consecutive nights - Can't skip a night or the chain will be broken (an additional 15.0)
NOTE: Once you have completed the 7 night chain, you will have to start your chain again. So the 7 chain would be an expected maximum of 4 times.

Help With Points
Example Scenario:

___Non-Lucid
The sky was grey, a bird was swooping down viciously towards me. I thought he was going to peck my eyes out. I cried "Help! I'm not invincible!". My dream guide appeared and acted as a barrier between me and the bird. The bird hit her but nothing of hers was affected, she was indeed invincible. She then took me to the city and pointed to a homeless man sitting in front of the book store, I decided to give him $10. After that, I met Lisa in the cafe, who is my DV comp team member in real life. Just as another DV team member Grace was walking in, the dream ended.

Full NL dream = 1.0
Summon DG = 1.0
Help someone in need = 1.0
Meet a team-mate = 1.0 for Lisa, 0.5 for Grace = 1.5
TOTAL POINTS = 4.5

___Lucid
The sky was grey, a bird was coming down towards me in slow motion. "I'm dead", I thought until I looked down at my fingers and noticed six of them. "Hang on... it's a dream!", I said to myself. I had control now, I breathed the element of Earth which repelled the bird away in the opposite direction. The dream then took me to the city. I could explore but I knew there was more potential, so I summoned my dream guide to ask her what I should do. She appeared and pointed to a homeless man sitting in-front of the book store, I decided to give him $10. After that, I met Lisa in the cafe, who is my DV comp team member in real life. Just as another DV team member Grace was walking in, the dream ended.

First lucid of the night = 10.0
DILD method = 5.0
Breathe an element = 6.0
Summon a dream guide = 10.0
Help someone in need = 4.0
Meet a team-mate (Lisa) = 7.0
Additional team-mate (Grace) = 3.0
TOTAL POINTS = 45.0

Once you are in the competition, please specify your personal goals.

Spoiler for LD:

I was in a room was a group of people and many air pumps. Somebody started pumping a lot of air into a small enclosed space. I thought this might be dangerous and fled the building before flying up into the air. I heard an explosion coming from the building. I tried to help direct paramedics to the room. I realized I was dreaming. Still in the air, I tried to transform into a dolphin but couldn't. I looked down and saw dolphins swimming near a shoreline. I pulled a small black one towards me in the air, got on its back to ride it and went down into the water. I noticed that the dolphin was unusually skinny and malnourished. A squid approached me and imbedded shards of plastic into my arm, which hurt a bit. I pulled them out and woke up.

4:05A Backyard / Mother / Disabled vehicles hitting house / altered landscape / The writing on the ground

I did not consider giving retirement stratagies to the old man, nor helping the soldiers detect and attack the enemy helping a DC


Day 1 Total: 4 Points
Contest Total: 4 Points


Stupidist Lucid Miss: My disabled jeep is being driven into a drain gutter in the back yard of the house, while I am naked except for a poorly clutched towel and my (dead) Mother is telling me they are doing me a favor. (too bad cause there were at least 5 DC out there to have been punched)


I had consumed like 4 liters of diet rootbeer and had Curiosity running at setting 2 most of the night. I managed to disrupt my sleep, tho I think in the hypnogram some of the red are just me not really having fallen back to sleep yet (with false light sleep in between the reds where I really lay awake, tho I do remember a lot of sort of dreamlets that I didn't think qualified as dreams so perhaps the hypnogram is somewhat accurate with me in very light sleep and having hypnogogic/hypnopompic imagery (dreamlets)

Hypnogram
Attachment 10118

double non-LD: 2 points
saved the world (unless Bill Cipher is not a world-ending threat): 2 points
controlled DC: 1 point

total: 5 points

August 2nd
Let's see if I scored this correctly

5.0 points for 5 non-lucid dreams
0.5 points for 1 fragment (walked through a field of spiky plants)
3.0 points for helping someone in need (sheltered actors, fed a friend, gave friend ride home)
8.5 points in total

And not entirely sure if this counts because it was so short:
10.0 points for 1st lucid dream (a dc said we must be dreaming, i said we are, then woke)
2.0 points for it being induced from WBTB
5.0 points for DILD
17 points total

Potentially 25.5 points altogether. Correct?

Aug 2 Journal Entry

Day 1
WBTB. 2
One dream. 1
Total. 3
I was all excited to have a lucid dream last night. I focused before bed and did WBTB....then the construction worker doing our windows arrived early and I woke up soon after to the sound of a nail gun right outside my door. Had to get out of bed early, there was no sleeping through that! Ugh

Alright, day one. I don't think I could get scores for shrinking this time, since that was completely unintentional on my part.

Amazing August Dreaming Competition 2018 - Day 1

Fragment - 0.5 point
First LD - 10 point
DILD - 5 points
WBTB - 2 points

Team Task - Utilize Ice (Ice Spike) (LD) - 20 points
Breath Weapon (Frost Breath) (LD) - 5 points

Sub-total: 42.5 points
Competition Total - 42.5 points

================================================== ================================================== =====================

@Azaleaj
Ah, so close! Hopefully you'll not be interrupted in such a way for some time.

@Methos
That's a lot of dreams! Don't forget to add 5 points for whether it was a DILD or WILD (think it's a DILD in your case). So that's 10 for the first LD, plus 5 for either WILD or DILD, and potentially an additional 2 if you used WBTB prior to sleeping before that dream occurred.

@KarlaB18
So, to clarify, are there any caps on how many times one could attempt Team and Bonus Tasks? They look a mite bit too efficient for points...

FireFlyMan: Right, I think I'll cap the three team tasks to 2x, the bonus task is only once.

3.0 pts for 3 non lucid dreams
0.5 pts for 1 fragment
3.5 pts Total

1.0 pts for fly (NL floated)
1.0 pts help someone in need (NL tried to put out a guy on fire but he died, not sure if this counts because I set him on fire unintentionally)
2.0 pts Total

5.0 pts for Utilise the element of fire (NL burned some voodoo & inadvertently set a man on fire)
5.0 pts total

10.5 Aug 3 Total ... 36 Grand Total (did I do this correctly?)


Dream Journal for Aug 3. Highlighted Challenge tasks

Methos: Those calculations look valid to me. You had the intention to put out the fire, with no malicious intentions, so you can keep the 1.0 point. With your team task that scored you 5.0 points, you can only do the specific task once again and then it will no longer give you points.

non-LD: 1 point

LD: 10 points
induce by wbtb: 2 points
summon dream guide: 10 points
accidentally summon person named "mmmnnnnfff": 5 points
(I would personally consider "oh hey, this guy's around the next corner" is a summoning method)
made hot object turn cold: (you can argue about this, I made my female friend overheat and then cool down to what felt like below room temperature, however I thought this could be "cold" due to my heat containment ability preventing me from feeling cold) 40 points
ask for advice: 5 points
partial transformation into Roy Mustang: (again, arguable, I used my disguise ability, but this is usually so convincing that my future self can fool my past self) 3 points

Another non-LD: 1 point
helped someone in need: 1 point
discovered an extraordinarily dangerous tree emitting a powerful aura: 2 points

subtotal: 80

total: 85

First LD-10 points
DILD-5 points
reality check-5 points

2nd LD-5 points
control another object-5 points

Spoiler for LDs:

First LD-I caught a false awakening and phased through my bed as a reality check. I ended up in a room. I tried to phase through some walls to go outside, but I couldn't. because the walls were bending as I pushed on them. Some sort of female sorcerer approached me and spun me around in the air. I asked her if I could be a dolphin and she said I could not because I had hidden inabilities to tend to.

Second LD-I forgot how I became lucid. I looked at the sky and wanted to go to outer space. I saw the moon and tried to go to outer space. I focused on the earth passing the moon and it did. Behind the moon was a bunch of other moons, all with cities on them. I picked one and ended up in a shop. There was a sample of olive oil available to try. I tried it and it was tasty, very fruity. An older lady, I assume the owner of the shop, approached me wanted me to leave a written review of the olive oil. I asked her if she knew it was a dream and she said she didn't. I decided to leave the shop and ended up in a bleak looking alleyway. I told the dream to give me something fun to do and a bunch of colorful objects dropped on the ground at once and some accordion music starting with lyrics including the word "cheer."

Posted on the 1st? what time zone are you in Dolphin :)

contest starts at 8PM on the first :) in your time zone
did you swim out across the date line?

Whoops! My bad! Thanks for catching that, cooleymd. I live in the Pacific time zone. I neglected to read when the competition started and assumed it started at 12:00 AM on August 1st.

That dream I posted on August 1st doesn't count, so my competition total should be 30 points.

Amazing August Dreaming Competition 2018 - Day 3

1. At a supermarket.
2. Sleeping in a train. A puffy-haired black woman gets, uh, very up close and personal. I feebly back away in vain. We talk about roguelikes for whatever reason, ideas for what would be the perfect game of the genre. I awkwardly stammered my thoughts.

Achieved a new personal goal of asking a DC where they live. I met several DCs in a grocery store and asked them questions but they ignored me. Then I met a young girl in a wheelchair. She told me she was a fellow lucid dreamer from North Dakota. She said she told her dad about it but he thought it was weird. She gave me her first name. After I left I realized I shoud get her last name and went back to get it but she was gone. I wondered if she had woken up. 15

Well I have been dreaming but no lucids yet,
only one extra point, I was in a dream shop and buying things to use in a dream and I actually bought a bunch of stuff
so +1 for buy something :) he he :)

other than that only non-lucids, I have audio recorded them on each awakening
but not even counted them up yet

here are my Hypnograms tho:

Attachment 10125
Attachment 10126
Attachment 10127
Attachment 10128

clearly a fair few awakenings and most with recalled dreams (even when no yellow was showing)

but still I figure I'm likely in next to last place of anyone who has posted so far with only Karla B maybe behind me :)


I switched my AERA to Vanilla for the third day, and havn't opend Zephyr scent yet

Guess I'll continue on with Vanilla thru the weekend see how many Lucid I can get before monday :), came up empty last saturday, but I had been lucid dreaming each Sat for the last three before that becoming lucid a total of 7 times in 6 dreams across those July weekends.

I have been drinking close to 4 liters of soda or water before bed to ensure I wake up
and have been using white noise to fall back asleep quickly

but often on awakening I lie there having to try quite a while to pull up the dream usually on the last minute or so.

last night I started using a white noise timer so that I don't wake up to blaring noise and have to distract myself turning it off, and finding the time, before recalling and recording.
Hopefully it will improve my recall and focus. the last few nights dreams have been quite good and well recalled :)

I'm not sure whether this was two different dreams or one dream, but I don't remember waking up from the first one, so I'll count it all as one dream.

Spoiler for LD:

I forgot how I became lucid, but I was in a bedroom. I put my hand behind my back to try summon somebody I wanted to make out with. I did not get the dc I wanted and didn't want to make out with her, but I gave her a hug.

I was walking through what I thought was Concord, CA looking for the train station. I became lost until I saw a big wooden roller coaster, at which point I realized I was dreaming. I flew up to try to get a better view of the roller coaster's layout. A paramedic dc told me to get down because he needed to see me. I got down and approached him. He showed me that there were many bugs crawling around on my hand. He said this was due to some common disease.

LD-I was sitting on a couch with a young lady I recognize as being from an earlier dream. I ask her if she wants to cuddle and we cuddle. I ask her if she wants to make out and she doesn't at first, but she started making out with me.

I caught a false awakening in a dark room and remembered I had set up an appointment in a earlier dream to meet with a couple of dogs to work on some project. I noticed one of the dogs and decided to play along, so I introduced myself and shook its paw. He introduced himself as Bully. Then I woke up.

I had a very short DEILD this morning. I woke up and turned some blue HI into an ocean. I tried to go into the ocean, but woke up right before I did.

ld-10 points

competition total-159 points

Is the 5 extra points for DILD/WILD good for all first LDs or are they only valid when having a DILD when trying to have a DILD or having a WILD when trying to have a WILD? I've been mainly going for DILDs via autosuggestion but at the spur of the moment I saw an opportunity to have a WILD and had one. I'm not sure whether or not this counts for 5 points.

I did manage to become lucid this morning
but I was so focused on the goals of the dream get snack, find math area, meet girl by lunch, that I pretty much dismissed the lucidity :(
and quickly lost it, sadly when I was lucid I looked in two windows to rooms full of DC, I did think of useing and abusing them, just no awareness of contest or any stated goals

oh well it will still be +17 Lucid Dild WBTB
so that should put me at about 100 points +- maybe 5
sadly my S+ showed some earlier rems but showed only light sleep for the lucid and the long non-lucid portion before it and the briefer non-lucid portion after it
(total lucidity about 15 seconds of barely aware temptedness with no lucid actions)


hopefully I'll write up all soon transcript is done up to to Fri

I did run out of memory on my recorder but was able to swtich to SD card :)
and noticed so I didn't lose any dreams (at least none I remembered)

Dolphin: 5 Points for DILDs/WILDs counts for any lucid dream you have.

I'll try to post some scores soon but I think I have like 110 +-5

my sleep tracker keeps not recording my REM, I must be sleeping too far from it

I think I'll try switching it to another tracker tho

also I have just been still using Vanilla, many dreams but only the one lucid
guite a few very well recalled and vivid dreams the last few days (for work days)
so I am hopeful for lucid tomorrow :)

Thanks, Karla!

and then counted ahead for just dreams and at least one extra point I know I have for buying something
(tho I think I may have flown non-lucidly in one dream too)

I will try to make synopsis of these first two weeks and post soon but I never seem to find time,
took me since 6pm to transcribe a second week now its almost 10pm

oh well off to dream

LD-I got out of bed to go to the bathroom and I started floating up. I decided to fly out of the house and higher in the air. I tried summoning a young lady but got a little boy instead.

LD-I was in a mall and a dc told me to run off and think about something. I became lucid and I tried to get out of the building. I jumped down a couple flights of stairs in one step.

LD-I gradually became lucid as a few DCs were messing with me in a muddy riverbed. I got out and jumped through the ground to teleport. I ended up in a living room of a house. I floated up in the air and tried to transform into a dolphin. I felt my body changing and looked down and to see I had a dolphin tail.

Finally had a solid night of lucid dreaming where I tried lots of things. I did not dive into the deep blue, scary ocean but I stood over it staring at it. I tried to pass through walls but they were solid. I also tried to become small, then big but nothing happened. I was able to summon my dog and fly with him which was great.

Attachment 10144

In the dream I realized that people were acting a little caricatures of themselves and there were several I didn't like
so I became lucid and punched the three I waned to punch and then 2 extra just for good measure (and to achieve goal)
then, I tried to leave to go look for some girls to grab, but I was in the void I surrvived the void (after much hand rubbing like maybe 20seconds in void)
I then proceeded to the first girl (.)(.), then another (.)(.) and a third (.)(.) howerever then once agian I began to wake so I was in the void and rubbing away
and thinking I wasn't going to make it but as before I just kept rubbing and I saw all sorts of void like stuff and colors and dream like scenes for a fraction of a second each then I
could feel my hands rubbing on my knees as I felt bent over a bit lying on side, and Thought I have woken up, but then a second latter I was in a scene, I did a jump test and failed did another and succeded then decided to start the task over and ran around grabbing (.)(.) x 4 :)

Dream Total DC's used and abused = 5 + 3 + 4 = ONE DOZEN :)

Night total DC's used and abused = Nine + Dozen + three that didn't count= 24 :)

So I'm not sure if we're allowed two WBTB per day
so these points should be like
5 Additional + 5 DILD + (2)WBTB + 15 New + 10 Old + 5 RC = 47


Additional Goals Status Update + two more NEW Goals

DC Use and Abuse Goals:

NEW Goal: grab female Dream Cop Trump Style (must be in uniform and armed)
NEW Goal: smack DC w/ Flashlight
NEW Goal: cheersmack 3+ DC
NEW Goal: trip 3+ DC
NEW NEW Goal: pants 3+ DC
NEW NEW Goal: poke 3+ DC in the eye(s)
NEW NEW Goal: crotch-kick 5+ DC
NEW Goal: punch 5+ DC acheived this competition

OLD Goal: grab 4+ DC Trump Style
OLD Goal: kiss 5+ DC acheived this competition
OLD Goal: smell the hair of 4+ DC
OLD Goal: run fingers thru the Hair of 4+ DC acheived this competiton
NEW Old Goal: grab 4+ DC top side :) (.)(.) acheived this competition

I estimate my total contest score so far
at 265/266

indluding 2/3 extra ponints for non lucid stuff (fly/buy)
3 lucid dreams at 17, 37 and 47 points
and +7 X 3 for a dream rememberd every day thru the 21st day

still have to transcribe like 25 dreams and then make up synopsis for all 115 transcribed ones and the 25 not yet transcribed ones :(

Looks like the only way to win is If Dolphin and I can at least pull into 2 of the top 3 spots (including 1st place)

I have added some more new new goals above, so I can go on a USE/ABUSE DC Rampage :)

as to my acomplished goals so far
you would thinking kissing them would be easy but you tend to close your eyes and destabalize (advice keep your eyes open)
also turn out grabbing (.)(.) has an oddly stabilizing effect

punching was dead easy (crotch-kicking should be too thats why I start at 5+)

and of course smelling hair will be much harder than running fingers thru it, but its good to mix up all senses in dreams and goals :)

Trump style is of course extemely fun and satisfiying but it tends to distract you to other things than the goals :)

next contest I'll have to up it to 7+ for Punch/Kiss :) and 5+ for the others
I think next time I'll remove 3+ Cheer Smack and just go with 5+ (|) smack because finding cheerleaders in a dream scape is hard (female cops are hard to find too, tho they do show up)

I just woke from a long long dream didn't realize how long until I looked at the hypno gram

Attachment 10145
like in a previous dream I was on a bus at the end but this time I became lucid (official 225th lucid, including 215 since joined, and 220 intentional with the other few from when I was younger)

I decided to do use and abuse goals, but initially didn't remember them properly and began to smack / punch some DC, then I was like no poke em in the eyes
so I poked 3 DC in the eyes, then I thought and remembered smell their hair, I managed to smell one that was like dew, then after resistance from or loathing of the others (Hey thy were worthy of eye-poking after all) I smelled the bus drivers hair. Next I got of the bus, for some reason I was being picky, and saw hair to smell but people were always in the way, finially I hooked one likely girl from begind the waist and pulled her in for a long in breath hers just smelled like hair, thinking I had completed both tasks I tried to think of another but woke :(

First Lucid +10 DILD +5 WBTB +2 New Goal (poke-eyes) +15 old goal smell hair ZERO
Of curse after waking I was like danmit I had to sniff 4+ hair FAIL

New estimated Total Score so far (also 4nld) 301/302


Additional Goals Status Update + even one more NEW Goals

NEW Goal: grab female Dream Cop Trump Style (must be in uniform and armed)
NEW Goal: smack DC w/ Flashlight

I'm in a hallway in a fancy hotel and I realize I'm dreaming. I hear some music and decide to go where it's coming from. I go up some stairs and end up in a lobby. After looking around for a bit, I tried to float to transform into a dolphin but woke up.

I'm not really into creating a lot of goals I tend to not complete very many goals and it is more difficult for me to keep track of lots of goals.

I will set a few goals, though.

jump out of water as dolphin (old)
make out with dc (old)
fly to outer space in a flying saucer (new)
visit an amusement park (old)
see a picture of an amusement park (new)

Ok remember you can complete more than one per dream :)
like find the pic then jump into it marry poppins style :)

and try not to complete 1.75 per dream as I did in my last dream :) he he ;) doesn't work out well on the rampage scale

Spoiler for LD:

I woke up and looked at my clock and there weren't any numbers on it. I got up and floated in the air and tried to transform into a dolphin. I was able to create some flippers but they were thin and floppy.

I was in a room with a demonic voice talking to me. I couldn't understand was he was saying, but it was something about murder and he said he'd see me tomorrow. I summoned a map and looked for a picture of an amusement park, but couldn't find one. I saw only pictures of coves and bays and a map of a small coastal city. I lost lucidity after that.

Luckily just at the end of this next to last morning I managed to become lucid

I had awoken just a while earlier but decided I would try to get back to bed near wake up time as this is the best time for week day lucid (usually I fail to get back to sleep but often when I do I get lucky)

I was walking with my brother and realized I coudn't be and this was a dream, I did a jump test, and it was a bit strange so I did a second one and then flew for a second but then lost the dream scape, I was just sort of floating in the air, but then I was laying in the dirt unable to see, I began to crawl along the ground scratching at the dirt to maintain tactile contact, then I came to the edge of a stone, and thought it might be a cover stone leading to a new world, but then I thouht or it will cover something good like a jet pack or something. Then had found the four edges about a 2 foot square or so I lifted it. Immediately I could see into the hole and it contained a jet pack :) (I was in a similar / same dreamscape) and decided I wanted to put on the jet pack and fly to where there were people, but I couldn't get the second strap to go over my right arm, it was like trapped on my elbow. As I strugled I woke :(

Lucid 10 Dild 5 WBTB 2 RC 5 Fly 4
Total for Lucid = 26 points

No rampage but I have one night left :)

my estimated total score is now just over 350

trouble is I still have to write so much up I don't know if I'll finish writing up anytime soon :(

here is the hypnogram it is the last stripe of yellow where I was lucid :)
Attachment 10147

From their feet I shall take them

I shall Dispossess them of all :)
