Also, we get good with controlling the lucid portion of our sleep, but we can certainly do more to also influence the remaining time asleep.

Spellbee was thinking about making non-lucid TOTMs. If you guys wanna get together and make something happen, that would be cool.

Sounds good to me and it will attract attention to the TOTY/TOTM's

Thats a nice added twitch to the ToTMs hehe, nice. These could be harder... incubate and don't go lucid, lol.

Tried the Galantamine this morning, only 2 of them, Got short lucid but too short to collect my wits, I had planned to do a task the instant I got lucid but it didn't even last that long, I need that extra wing! I feel half naked with only one

Happy New Years, Everyone!

It's a New Year for lucid dreaming. So, get to work!!

If beginner wings lock me out from other wings for the month, I will never attempt them. I'll just go for the other tasks.

I think there is some kind of a misunderstanding.

We only added Beginner tasks for those that would be intimidated by more complex tasks. You are still free to do all of them. It just would be silly if somebody very skilled would be demanding wings for task "touch the ground" or similar. But basically, you will decide which wings you are going to go for.

And there is an issue of suggesting and voting future tasks. Only those that completed respective tasks will be able to vote for next month's tasks. Everybody can suggest, but advanced will not vote for beginners and vice versa.

I personally will be doing some beginner tasks, like looking at the skies. I love that in WL and I want to do it more in my dreams. Or just simply slow down and take in the scenery, instead of always rushing to do something. But I will not be asking for wings for that. It's just for fun and as a personal goal.

Wings are nice and great to have, but this is not only about wings. It's about having fun, sharing the attempts and talking to each other.

We need an "IMPOSSIBLE" task for those that can manage a full stack on the first day...

Something like Task of the Decade or Task of the Century?

Yeah, By the time the end of the century rolls around they'll be too old to care

**PercyLucid** · 01-05-2017 11:39 AM

The problem is that it is bound to user voting.

Many people are not aggressive and they like to stay in the confort zone of difficulty. Even the ToTY suggestion were easy peasy, some basic tasks, reason why I had to add some juice to Dolphin's task.

If I could put the ToTY just by my hand (well, I could but I would be a Dictator haha)

But I can come up with tough-doable tasks... I still remember, tasks like witnessing the grim reaper taking your own soul, or visiting the subatomic world and report back (this was advanced) good times!

**Letaali** · 01-05-2017 01:45 PM

Grim reaper taking my soul sounds like fun. I'll put that on my to-do list.

You can find it in my journal, it was fun (it was sort of a sacrifice... I was a bit late for my standards, like half way in the month, and while I was going to take revenge on some jerk sending the Grim Reaper to him, my cat was about to wake me up (double consciousness) so I asked the Grim to harvest me haha (the task was to witness a soul being harvested, so did the work lol)

Some have said this task might get unenjoyable, but wouldn't it be fun and engaging to create a solar system from scratch, checkout the planets, map them, discover creatures, watch them evolve, meet new civilizations, and make new friends. Then, you can move on to another star!

This is worth some pondering... interesting stuff.

I brought this over here, I got too many dreams to write up for the TOTM page ..

Some of the best moments I had in lucids is when I touch and feel some item. The details can be amazing.

I am not surprised though that we don't do this a lot in dreams. Since we don't really do it during day, when awake. I guess that would be part of awareness, which I really lack. I want to work on that. Be more aware during day and during sleep.

While I was at I re-read the page I sent about awareness a couple of time for it to sink in and had the wildest night of dreams I have had in a long time, Recalling back so far I lost the beginning which was really the end of the dreams and was the best part, Situation awareness used to be my strong point by necessity but no more it seems,
Now to go get the recorder and get started writing for the DJ

**gab** · 01-05-2017 11:26 PM

Hey guys! Question to those that are able to complete all TOTMs by day 3 and most of the TOTY's by day 5. 0_0

First of all, incredible skills. Awesome, that you guys are able to lucid this well. But, is there a task that would be challenging? Can you think of anything that you would not be able to do this fast? Just curious?

**woblybil** · 01-05-2017 11:39 PM

The problem is like I used to be, If your'e good at LD'ing NOTHING is impossible! ..

And I'll try to put some luminous bugs here for you, Don't know if it will work..
It didn't

Yeah, I understand. Another thing I wanted to mention is that it's not just difficulty of tasks, but how many lucids can someone have in one night. Since for TOTY's you have to wake up between them, so chaining or DEILDing is no allowed, but if you have 2-3 or more lucids a night, you still finish the tasks fast.

I had four Lucid's last night but I lost one in recall and the other is rotten to the core
