Thread: Lucid Task for the Month of December 2007

There are a lot of us that don't celebrate christmas. That's probably why and haven't you ever heard the term white christmas?

(non-Americans im not talking to you in this) Good for you. The majority does. Just because the minority does not, it doesn't mean we have to be politically correct. And i don't want to start a debate either. Christmas is a broad term now. You don't have to be a Christian, to celebrate the holiday. Until it's taken away from the "National Holiday" list, ill go with Christmas, since this Country was founded on Christianity.

I don't get what the badges are?

I am back on the couch, unhappy that I'm awake. I do an RC just in case and find I can still breath - I'm still dreaming. I see my too-small son looking out of his bedroom door again, so I get up and go in there with him. He has changed now to a small elfish creature, who climbs on the upper level of his futon. I ask if he is Mattie. He says yes. I bring my head close and say, "Look into my eyes. Are you Mattie?" Looking down, seemingly with shame, the DC shakes its head no and says, "No." He changes again - now he is a hooded figure with a masked face.

I ask its name. He says, "My name is Thrash." I ask, "What is MY name. What is my dream name? What is my name in this place?" He stammers, then says, "Win... Twin... Twen... WREN! Wren."

Can you please keep it out of the Task Thread? There are plenty of places to argue here. If you don't like the tasks, fine, just don't do them. Come back next month.

Well, they were hard ones to make this month. Sugarglider was nice enough to make us something to use.

Congrats, Wren!

Thrash--isn't that some lead guitar player's name? If not, it should be.

I know there's a guitar player called "slash." Maybe that's what you were thinking?

Ugh, I forgot ALL the dreams I had last night, I don't think I got either of the tasks though. I'm still a basic lucid dreamer.

I'm going for tomorrow.

Oh man~ I don't know if this counts but it was composed of epic and win.

I was having a non-lucid in what could be most accurately described as super mario 64. At least, the textures were all the same. I was standing outside the castle except the castle was in the shape of princes peach sitting on her throne. Now that I think about it.. there were some doorways in some awkward places... XD

For whatever reason, I was playing as princess peach (I really don't have an explanation for why I'd be playing as her because the whole point of the game is to save her from bowser) Anyways, to make it short, I woke up from this, remembered the task and did a re-entry with that in mind. So, now I was lucid in nonsensical mario land.

First, I had to find some sort of DC. I figured there'd be one somewhere around here because theres always those little helpers scattered around a place like that. I walk around a little until I see a floating little island off in the distance. Now it's important to note, this island could not have been any wider then 6 meters across. It had a little mound on top with a doorway in it so naturally I thought that there would be someone living in there. Y'know, like a lil hut for a hermit.

I get to the floating island and step through the doorway only to be greeted by the typical Nintendo logic. The area inside was about the size of a football stadium or two. Thankfully, there was one of those toad things at the entrance (y'know, the lil mushroom guys) So, I asked him "Do you know who I am?" He looked a little confused then replied "Of course I know you! You're princess peach!"

This is when it hit me that I WAS princess peach. Well, it's simple enough to remedy that. I put a hand up to my forehead then began to unzip my princess peach exterior. I took the "costume" off and asked again "Do you know who I am?" All the little toad thing was able to stutter was "B-B-B-BOWSER!" Then he fainted. I looked down at my hands and sure enough, I was bowser. So, I popped the toad thing into my mouth and continued on my way.

No matter if that counts or not, it was REALLY funny when I woke up.

Here is an excerpt from a dream I had last night:

"I was still looking at her eyes. I instead, looked past her eyes. I was looking into her very soul. I closed my eyes, and I was back with her. I realized that she was my dream guide. The girl who sat behind me in second grade. Who knew?
I asked her what her name was. She replied, "You will remember when you need to know. This is not that time."

I never found out her name. She called me by mine though. She said that it was my real name, spelled with a K. So my dream name is "Kolin".
So that's another task of the month done. I just need to find out her name."

There you have it. My dream name is my real name, just spelled with a K instead of a C.

I'll look through some old school photos today, and ty to find the girl's name.

FUUUUUHHH. Let me do the LD tasks, it would be SOOOO much better. AND FUNNER, yes i like to use non-existing words. Oh, good luck guys on the task.

I was wondering why it didn't have anything to do with christmas as well, i was looking forward to doing a christmas task but at least there is an easy task that i can complete.

YES! I completed my first lucid task of the month! So I became lucid in the area in pokemon silver/gold on the beach next to the Red Gyrados. I remember the task of the month so I run through the crowds of people looking for the person I like to summon and I find her.

"Whats my dream name?"
"I dunno"
Crap! So I scream into the crowd "WHATS MY DREAM NAME" and they all groan "Mose" as if they were tired of me being there, which I don't blame them for afterwards I saw how many women I could grope.

I think I got Mose from watching the Office too much. Dwights brother's name is Mose. Later in my lucidity I did find myself in an office.

No, I mean what are the little pictures on the badges? I'm having a hard time seeing.

so i enter the dream inside my room, and the lights are one, and i see myself sitting on a stool playing some street fighting video game. I was gonna ask myself my dream name, but he disappeared as soon as i came up to him. I told myself that my DG would be in the living room, and it turned out being my mother. I walked up to her and asked her what is my dream name and she said "Sean Tucker". I said really? She said "yes Sean Clark Tucker, specializing in dream Blank" (didn't make out the last part) in her most sophisticated sounding voice. I walked over to my pops who turned into my mother right when I walked up to him, and I asked the same question. She said it again "Sean Tucker". I walked out side...and I saw some cameras flash, and I woke up.

Nice, dude!! Do you find it creepy that your mom was your DG?

Man I know it doesn't count but finally after being sick for awhile (not having good sleep, therefore dreams were non existant or messed up) so I couldn't lucid dream.

After geeling better I had my third lucid dream in which it lasted longer than two seconds. This dream felt really long and consisted of me being either lucid or semi lucid. It was a pretty cool dream actually lot's of things happening.

Anyways after rioting in the streets with a friend (I was only semi lucid at the time) I was wondering what I should do now. Bang and I was lucid again and I was reminded of the tasks. I turned around a corner and saw a turkey. The turkey was small and looked like a stuffed toy. I haven't seen many real turkeys in my life. I asked him what thanksgiving meant to him and he told me in a stuttering voice,"..The... Re..vol..utio..n..." I left chuckling to myself.

I remembered the other task though and went out to fulfill it. I saw a chick walking around. She was a business woman in an office suit. Good enough. I decided to try walking through her and becoming her. Worked perfectly. I did it and checked myself (They were there albeit rather small) and the lower area. I thought great now to go back. I tried. I swear to god I did. However I could not revert back perfectly and I was a man with a small deformed penis and messed up boobs. I had a small fleeting second of terror before I fell back into semi lucidity. I don't know if I went back to normal in the dream or not.

I woke up feeling on top of the work that I, a lowly ametuer, could complete both tasks. Anyway I will look forward to finishing these ones on time.

Cousin! That's pretty funny, though. "You will now fight my cousin Mose!"

Well congratulations on completing BOTH of last month's tasks!

It's still early so I bet you'll complete at least one (if not both) of this month's tasks!

Yeah exactly, same here.

I just had a strange lucid where I managed to find out my dream name. It went like this.
I am in the bowling alley with my girlfriend and my buddy. I become lucid when I notice the bowling lanes are all outside. They are separated from the parking lot by a chain link fence. The whole place looks like a bowling alley from the wild west.

I remember I need to find out my dream name, so I turn to the bartender to ask him. He replies, "Can I see your I.D.?" I am a bit confused by this, but decide it will be a good way to find out what my name is.

I open my wallet, but my drivers license is missing. I search frantically for it in my wallet, and ask my girlfriend, "Do you know where my ID is? I need to find out my dream name." She is behind the bar wearing headphones that are plugged into the wall. She says, "You never listen to me. I told you last night at your gallery opening that you left it there. When we walked down the stairs to enter the show, the manager took it from you and never gave it back." I decide to call the gallery to find out if they still have it. By this point, I'm a bit lost in the situation.

The manager answers the phone, "Hello. Can I help you?"
I ask, "My name is _____ I believe I left my I.D. there last night?"
He answers "Ok, just a second. Can I see your I.D.? This is a 21 and over establishment."
I think he must be joking with me and reply, "I wish." I wait for a couple seconds, and realize he must be serious. I say again, "I believe I left my ID with YOU. Can you please check? Maybe it's in the register under the drawer or something."
He seems a bit senile on he phone, and instead of answering me he asks me another question. "Have you ever been to JS Restaurant in San Francisco? We are very similar. Very fancy...Very fancy...Yes...Yes.."
I'm starting to worry that this is taking way too long. I ask again, "Do you have my ID or not!?!? I need it now! "
He seems startled and replies, "Of course. Let me check.......Yes it's here, right here in the register."

Now I am mad, because if he has it, I obviously won't be getting it for a while. I see a photo booth across the bowling alley, and decide to use it to print up a new drivers license. I go inside and take my picture. It spits out my ID card. Finally. I look at the card and it is clearly a dream version of a drivers license. Where my photo should be, there is a picture of my three brothers. Where my date of birth should be, it reads 197*. There is a round organ donor sticker on it that has the text "OK TO PRINT PLOT". I am getting excited searching through the lines of meaningless text for my name. I don't seem to see it anywhere. Then I notice the line where my name should be reads, "Das Guy Jad Spitter @ Yahoo.com

I decide this must be my dream name, and excitedly turn to my girlfriend to tell her. I think this will help me remember when I wake up. She has disappeared and morphed into my younger brother. I decide that, before I wake myself up, I will give this ID to my DC brother to use as a fake in the dream world before he turns 21. I give it to him, and then wake myself up.

So, I guess my dream name must be --Das Guy Jad Spitter-- Whatever the hell that means.

It's obvious. The Guy That Spit on Her in a really bad accent.

Anyway, here's mine for the basic task, right from the DJ:
I was standing in our basement bathroom with an old man, looking into the mirror. My reflection looked odd, and I realized I was dreaming. The old man disappeared, so I walked out of the bathroom to see who else might be around. I wanted to do the simple task, "Ask a DC what your dream name is."

I turned around and found that this girl I know from softball had just walked out of the bathroom too. I asked her what my dream name was.

"Um...I don't know. I think.....El Dakota, or something."

Me: "Ah. That's random. I was hoping it'd be QwinsepiaSquared or something."

The dream faded and I woke up.

That's actually pretty ironic, because when I was little I wanted my name to be Dakota instead of Danielle.

I going to try to the easy task this month, having something planned to do would probobly help me become lucid again.

Yes--I think having a goal helps a lot. Good luck!

AGGGHHHHH!!!! I did the basic task, I found out my dream name, but I cannot remember it!!!! It came to me today, and I remember writing it down, but it was an FA, damn FA's which make me believe I am writing my dreams down, it was something boring though like dave. And I asked why and it was a stupid answer, but I cannot remember it!!!

Oh this is going to bug me! Okay I am going to have to try this again now!!!
