Wow at this thread! You know, it's been 7 years since a totm thread got past 8 pages. I think it's because y'all pick and vote on the tasks. Hence task CLUB :mrgreen:
I did Basic Task i
Im at some kind of square with a fountain and I run up to a DC on a bench and start to rip all my clothes off, they have a scared look on their face, Im laughing my head off and I think that I randomly teleported on to a bus and ripped all my clothes off. Everyone was yelling "STOP" xD
There has got to be some sort of booby prize for completing EVERY task but all non-lucid. Last night I visited an alien planet for the first time ever, but non-lucid, which completes every July TOTM task!!!!
Non-Lucid ?.. I just flew all over a weed field with a camera trying to take a picture of an elusive little kid and finally gave up and flew slowly back uphill over the sidewalk and the kid caught up with me and asked to fly too and I said I'd like to help you but i'm having a hard time myself and had no reason at all to think I might be dreaming....
Elevator Task! Had it during a nap. Which is funny because as I was going to take a nap, someone in irc told me to have a lucid. Wish I remember who it was, Alexa or PK or Jack. Anyway:

I "woke up" or so I had thought, and was immediately aware that a slimy egg was in my hand. But I knew that finding the egg and dropping it had been a dream, because it was a house I didn't recognize, and now I was in my real room. How was I still holding this egg? LUCID!! :D Now it felt like a jello egg, and I let it kinda "sploop!" out of my hands, and I got out of the bed. I recalled the elevator totm because I've been talking about it for days. I've been thinking alot lately about the power of expectation, and have come to some conclusions about it, and how I've found a mechanism that helps it to work better. I'll have to post about that sometime. Anyway, I opened my bedroom door, and as I did, I told myself, "Now that I'm in that hotel, I just need to find the elevator that's just down this hallway." Sure enough, as soon as I opened the door, a hotel hallway stretched out before me. I walked down it a bit, thinking to myself, "The elevator is right about here." On my right was the door to a room, but to my left was an elevator! "I'm going to hit the down button." And as I approached the doors to the elevator, a simple up arrow and a down arrow button appeared. I hit the down arrow and the doors opened right away. It looked like a normal elevator: wood floor, carpeted walls and a metal bar that went 3 quarters around mid height. But when I looked at the back wall of the elevator, the left part looked like it opened up into another elevator. Kinda like twin elevators, with a partial partition. When I got the the partition, I realized immediately that it was in fact a mirror, because I saw my reflection. Only it wasn't me, it was my stepdad! Wearing that same dumb blue and green plaid shirt and khaki pants lol. I screamed at first because it startled me, and jumped back. The reflection imitated me at the same time. I laughed so hard at the ridiculousness of it, that I started float-flying in the elevator, occasionally projected forward a bit by my own laughter as if each laugh acted as propulsion. So weird haha. Then I woke up.
I had an unusually long lucid dream the other day when I passed out after returning home from class, but totally forgot what the advanced tasks were, so I just ended up flying aimlessly around the city. [Shrugs] Oh well; I had fun nevertheless. I must say, playing Kid Icarus: Uprising has helped me improve mine flight ability tremendously (not that it was bad to begin with). Until now, I have only been able to fly at relatively low speeds. The wind on mine face and body just felt so real.
I do not know if this is the cause or not, but ever since I started taking this supplement called L-theanine to help me fall asleep easier (and boy, does it work), every single one of mine dreams, lucid or non-lucid, has been in high-definition. But, as a downside, I occasionally feel slightly on edge the following day. [Shrugs] Nonetheless, I think it's worth it.
[EDIT] Huh, lucky sevens.

Maybe I'll get lucky tomorrow and find a stack of banknotes on campus in the toilet stall.
May you find at least 777 banknotes then
That's cool how playing that game helped with your flying. I can always fly in LDs no problem, but I'm kind of a low and slow flyer. Maybe I should check it out!
WTF, elevators again, on the way to a pizza party where nobody I knew showed up (but there were cute girls with beautiful deep brown eyes, but I was too shy [hey who are you, and what have you done with the real FryingMan?!] to approach).
OK I'm really pissed about this month. Since I'm all about the non-lucids on all the tasks this month, can we PLEASE make sure that at least next month's tasks involve tons and tons of smoking hot sex?
edit: that came out more angry than tongue-in-cheek, which is how it was meant. I have only my pea-dreaming-brain to blame for my performance this month. Heck, had a few lucids and some great dreams all around so it's been a great month. Just wingless, boo hoo :cry:
I can try.
Aristaeus, I was dreaming about you yesterday!!!! Holy s*** I just remembered that, we were talking about DreamViews. I just looked in my DJ and it says "I am talking to some DV member called Arist.. (Can't remember the rest)" but now I know it was definitely you! Thats so weird I think you even had the same Profile Picture in my dream :happyhappy:
Okay, finally transferred over these notes. This was from July 24th. I completed the naked task, but failed at the elevator and planet tasks.
Full entry: Naked at the Playground
Spoiler for Excerpt:
Whew!! I got the elevator task done on the last day.
Dream Competition, Invulnerability, Elevator
I swear by the Whiskers On My Cat that I will not-WILL NOT! do the Bonus task the first thing next month......
