Dunno if this will count. One attempt I asked for a waking task and the woman responded by asking for a cup of tea. (I started making one in the dream.) Since that, I have made tea for someone in RL, so is that a competion?

Here are the excerpts of the actual task attempts -

Spoiler for Advanced I:

I recall the TOTM about changing the weather. Well, needs to be winter first. I summon a snowstorm. Frosts and glaciers roll over everything, locking it all in ice. Everything is blue and white, the grass covered in thick frost. Then I revert it back to spring and the ice melts. The grass returns to a green colour and the sun comes out. Birds start tweeting and it feels like spring.

Spoiler for Advanced II:

Turning around I start flying over the town. I run and do large leaps between rooftops. What were the other tasks? Oh yes, invisibility cloak. Down in the street below some shadowy cloaked assassins are prowling. I reach behind my shoulders and mime pulling an invisibility cloak over myself. Then I drop down into the street and attack the assassins.

They are surprised, but then learn to fight back because the cloak doesn't always fully cover my legs when I am jumping and kicking. So I back off, making sure I am fully invisible. They are on their guard, awaiting attack and unsure where I will strike next. I start making a fireball in my hands, mumbling words of a spell, then throw them. They try to dive out of the way as the fire appears from nowhere. After a few fireballs I awake.

Waking TOTM suggestions from my DCs
#1 - Didn't hear the answer
#2 - Can you make me a cup of tea?
#3 - Measure how fast a river goes up
#4 - Can you code a dungeon heroically?

The other basic one I posted earlier in the thread.

Hopefully that's all of them, depending on the "cup of tea" verdict.

Wow, Busy night
