What a coincidence...I did those 2 basic tasks, but in march...;)
Basic I : I decreased big guy's muscles, and made some other guy's hands disappear. The look on their faces was hilarious...:D
Basic II : At the beginning of a dream i licked wall to stabilize dream, it tasted...well...sandy...:?

I completed Basic Task ii and got partway through Advanced Task i. The bad news is that I wound up ingesting a chunk of my wife's ring. But now I know: jewelry tastes like vegetable oil!
Quote:
I happen to glance over at the passenger seat and notice that one of Wife's rings is laying on the cushion. I try to remember whether she lost this ring IWL. No, it's not missing. But the Task of the Month occurs to me and I decide to give the ring a taste. I jam it into my mouth and start sucking on it. The taste is slightly oily at first, but I'm not getting a lot of flavor. I start to suck a bit harder and I feel the top of the ring begin to melt! My mouth is filled with the taste of vegetable oil.
I spit the ring out and see that about a third of it is completely melted. The damage bothers me so I grip it in my hand for a moment to repair it. It comes out whole again and I toss it back onto the seat.
I want to go for the Advanced Task now (transform a lump of coal into a diamond), so I conjure a lump of coal by "finding" it behind my back. As I bring it forward to look at it, though, I feel the scene darkening and losing focus. The change is sudden, so I'm left with no time to complete the diamond transformation.
Can't wait to take another pass at the rest of these...

Aww man, I really can't wait for someone to do the diamond one. But well done on your expensive snack there CL!

Yeyyy! Completed basic task ii - ate a piece of bread, tasted like bread :) Sorry if it's too uninteresting, but was not easy to find something to eat. The choice was either that or eating a puppy. The puppy safely transformed to something else and moved to another dimension, so no animals were harmed during this LD. :D
I nailed basic ii by trying to eat my fingers (bland), my sons PJs (cottonmouth), and finished with eating my way out of a giant bag of Fritos (salty)!
Unfortunately, I failed advanced i but got so, so close.
Lemonade, tasted like lemonade a little. Mostly nothing.
Spoiler for Dream for Basic Task II:
I am walking up a water slide. There are people going down it and moss everywhere making it difficult to get up. Maybe I should just go down? This is a dream after all I then realize what I thought and that it was a dream.[COLOR="#FF0000"]I walk up the water, but make the water push upstream instead of down, so when I slip I keep going up. There is a patio at the top and Tam Haverford (Aziz Ansari) is at the top, serving lemonade. I ask him for some and then drink it. Tastes alright for dream food, I have had better. I see a building, but there is no entrance, just a brick wall. I imagine the scene from Harry Potter and The Sorcerer's Stone and the bricks move like I want them to. I go inside the building and see a book lying next to a window, so I grab it and decide to read it. I begin and it goes like this:
After of then when we couldn't of course, being happy later when you snoring beat after the old expensive. And relevant exegetical purpose then never pants until. Attachment 4600
And went on like that for the whole page. OK, Just think of it being solid words that make sense I flip the page and the same garbled nonsense is there as well. Maybe I should stabilize better... OH! I should become omnipotent! Everything around me is fake, there are no consequences for my actions, the

I might take a nap if I have the time today, and I'll probably be doing WBTB tonight, so I'll try the second basic goal.

I guess the auto-cannibalism mantra may be working. I recall a fragment last night where I was licking my arm and it tasted like pizza. ...wasn't lucid though. :)

12:30am I was in a lucid dream in a dystopian world and 2 huge, powerful men built like bulls were with me, They were tanned and shiny with muscles bulging and they were arguing about me because I didnt kike the lean guy and I knew a fray was about to start so I decided use this great opportunity to prank a DC and edged them to fight thinking I was in control and it would be a great fight too, The heavier one had his hand on my shoulder so I just nudged him with an elbow and it set them off and I was moving out of the way when the big heavier guy hit the other in the jaw right over my head and he fell back against a stone building and I thought he was a goner but he came back pounding the heavy guy who hid behind me now,Wrapping his arms around me from behind and the thinner dude grabbed him behind the head and pounded a fist the size of a basketball into the fat guys stomach right thru me and I let out a big "Oooph"and yelled "Not me you bastards" and shot out from between them but it woke me up and I tried to get back into the dream without success and then tried to recall more of it but it was too late, The whole thing prolly lasted no more than five minutes. :P

i think i done advanced one
Spoiler for for dream:
WILD. The dream began - i was walking and trying to count fingers. I was in my town and saw DC about 40 years old, he lied on the grass. He spoke with me, and i thought that he spoke intresting things. We had a conversation. But i remembered about TOTM, there was a secretary and i took a sheet of paper and soft pens. I explained the DC that want to draw red car, and i will see it behind the coner and i will run into something. " then draw a recicle bin near it:)" - he said. I draw a car, going to recicle bin. In fact it was difficult and the picture wasn't stable and soft pens draw very bad. I ask DC what's his name. he said one name. I asked - tell it again, and he said another. I said bye-bye and went to the coner thinking about the red car. Behind the corner i found some constructions like 4-wheel bikes, but making from lego. I sat and drive, but this mashine drove so slow - about 20 km/h. I tried to crash to the building, but nothing happened, i slowly came to building and touched it with my bike. Then i don't remember the fragment of the dream, and my recall came back then i was in my parent's flat with my 4-wheel bike, thinking that i need outdoors to ride. I went through the wall and window and jumped from 8 floor. I flew very fast, and when i landed i awoke.

I failed Advanced Task II -- got confused and kept trying to conjure a diamond! My conjuration was on the fritz, too, it seems. The ol' brain just wasn't working quite right. Ah well, I tried. Too bad there are no "participation wings". :chuckle:
Quote:
Now I remember Task of the Month -- turn a lump of coal into a diamond. Unfortunately, I start trying to conjure a diamond at first. I'm very aware of my hands for some reason, and even when I put them behind my back I can't seem to make myself buy into the conjuration. I bring my hands back to the front of my body and see that now I'm wearing these black, rather lady-like leather driving gloves. Annoyed, I take them off and pitch them away. I try the conjuration again -- again, more lady-gloves. Then I remember that I wasn't even supposed to be conjuring a diamond in the first place but a lump of coal. I start working on that, wind up with lady-gloves again, and start getting frustrated. A car clips me as it goes by, I start getting agitated, and darkness comes over me, pitching me into the void.
I got some donuts but I never actually got to eat them. Next time I'll be less picky about what I taste!
Spoiler for From my DJ::
Quote:
So the earliest I can remember besides small fragments is trying to get donuts at a donut shop for the second basic monthly dream goal. I wanted to take the donuts to some characters from a TV show (Supernatural) that I was planning on hanging out with so we could all have donuts together. I told the guy behind the counter that I wanted "Four of everything" and he laughed and wouldn't give me any donuts, because that was way too much. Then he left and I had to put the donuts into the box myself, and left without paying. Then, I tried to teleport to the people I was planning on meeting, but just as I was getting halfway into their room, it was like some force drove me away, and I ended up a floor above them in a hallway (they were staying at a two-story motel). I wasn't really sure how to get back to them so I release this ball of light from my hands and tell it to lead me to them. It goes pretty fast, though, and as I try to follow it, I lose it or the dream changes or something. All I remember is that I never make it to the people I was supposed to meet and I never got to taste my donuts.

Wow!!! Is there something in the air?
Thanks Xanous for the PM. I'm out of town this weekend so my response time is a little slow right now. Will read the rest of the dreams later today when I'm on the computer. Really good job guys!

I think I may have had a lucid and completed the task in it but my memories of the dream are too foggy to be sure, :pissed:
I was rolling around on the floor laughing hysterically and I had what I think were potato chips in my mouth, I was telling myself to remember when I woke up. But when I woke up all I could remember was laughing.
Getting close!

she: was the lego-4-wheel bike thing you drove the color red at least?
Does it count as completing a task if you aren't actually lucid, and it just happens? Because last night, at the end of my dream, I tasted art. I didn't actually lick anything or try to taste anything, I just suddenly felt the taste, and I wasn't lucid.

Success!!
I was in the middle of a sexual NLD and partly through realized that I was in a dream. I looked around for something to taste then decided not to risk it and jammed my fingers in my mouth. It just tasted like hands.. bland, kind of salty.. I tried to make my hand taste like candy, but it was a No Go. No difference with dream breasts either :X
Next up - Diamonds baby, awww yea

I had no idea so many of you would just go for tasting human flesh. And Xanous you little devil, I swear to god, the night before you had your finger LD, I made a promise that I would bite the tip of my finger off in my next LD. I haven't gotten it yet, but we're still rolling around in eachother's heads!
