Nice...

Good about the LD though.

EDIT: You get a gold star from me anyways.

LOL congrats your freaking crazy.
"I ----thought---- i was dreaming so i jumped headfirst down the stairs"

-I would do a few Rcs before trying that but what the heck, it worked.

Anyway Good job on a long LD man.

I love the headfirst down the stairs and you definitly get a gold star from me too!

I know, right? :sweat1: I usually go for the plug-your-nose, or read-a-line-twice check. I can only think that maybe I was already convinced I was dreaming by that point, and taking a dive was just the last step... or maybe I was still a bit foggy from being in a dream-state. I don't remember exactly what I was thinking because the false awakening dream screwed with my memory a bit.

(oand moar gold stars plz kthx)

If ever you stop posting for a long time, we'll know what happened...
"He must have thought he was dreaming again" we'll say and hope you only bounced down one flight of stairs.
...Still, rock on!

Wow, if there's anyone who has motivation to get what you want done, it's surely you. I'd be lucky if I even remember what I want to do in a LD [so I mainly do random stuff].

You really put LDs to good use, hopefully you get more Lds that are that long [or longer] more often.

Heh, thanks, but the reason I was so focused in my LD was probably because I've been spending time on this site. I didn't feel like I was going through a logical process while carrying out my "experiments". In fact, I can relate to just doing "random stuff" - from what I can remember from my LD, I just did the first thing that popped into my head. However, because I've been studying other people's LD's, the first things that popped into my head were things other people have tried doing, or wanted to do.

you have just earned 1 gold star. Congradulations.

Can someone please tell me what a dream guide is? I read the glosssary definition but I still don't fully understand it. Is it some dude in your dream that tells you how to do stuff? How do you "find" the Dream Guide. I can't have a dream guide if I don't even know what it is because my brain won't make one. Please help me out.

:mutter: (Give me a freaking gold star and I'll tell you, Infraredkelp)

Meh, the best way to put it would be that a dreamguide is an uber-Dream Character. They don't respond to your questions with completely insane answers (well, they're not supposed to) and they can sometimes help you understand how to use your Lucid Dream abilities. I've never found such a character, but then, I've only had a couple LD's.

As for how to look for one, try this guide:

I have no idea whether or not I'll be able to find a dream guide (it's not like it's a proven phenomenon, nor, come to think of it, is it provable), but searching for one gives me a goal in my LD's.

That's the same 'strategy' I used. Spending a lot of time on this forum, so you remember things other people have tried doing.

And yep, that's a dreamguide.

What's a goldstar and how do I give you one?

oh... lol.

I was referring to the common practice of elementary school teachers to give you an essentially useless "Gold Star Sticker" or some such thing to reward you for good behavior. In other words, I was just asking for praise to boost my already over-inflated ego.

Don't worry about it tho, I'm fine for now. *sticks a gold star sticker on forehead*

I just had my almost first lucid too, so I can relate. It feels awesome

Congrats!
