Thread: Lucid Task of the Month for February 2008

Basic Task: Ask a Dream Character something about yourself that you don't know

3 Feb 08 ( The Night before my BDAY )
(unknown trigger, random DILD)

I was at my diningroom table which looked quite irregular and I realised I was dreaming, I look about the kitchen and my mother walked in on me, quite off the chance I asked "Mum, what can you tell me about myself that I do not know". her reply was "you ... are sitting ...on my...seat"

I feel pretty amused at her reply and I walk into my room and I play LoTR BFME II on PC and start clicking on Shelob and the little spiders.

I am not sure if this counts in the strictest sense as the task as sure enough...I was sitting in her seat that she occupies during dinner, but no one, and I mean NO ONE can beat mum for random one liners!

alright, last night.. rather interesting.

I was already into my LD when I remember the task i needed to do. I was lying down on the floor, with my boyfriend beside me, covered in blankets. i was kinda falling asleep and I said to him "tell me something I dont know about myself" and he picks me up and carries me upstairs saying "You miss your lollypop." (What lollypop hes talking about I really have no clue) So I cuddle closer to him and fall asleep in my dream. Which is where I pull out of LD and into another dream

Finally broke my dry spell and cracked at the basic task. I did two tries, because the first try I didn't remember what the person said.

First shot: I attained lucidity after thinking of doing some reality checks. Just thinking of the need for them was enough to make me realize I was dreaming. I went up to my dad, and asked him what I don't know about myself. First he whispered some nonsense words, mostly vowel sounds, into my ear. Then he said something more substantial, but I forgot what it was. I don't think it made much sense as an answer anyway, though, even if I'd remember it.

(I also took a shot at the advanced task afterwards, with no luck - I found only "regular" squirrels in the forests I flew around in, not groundhogs, and I couldn't levitate any of them.)

Second dream: I don't remember how I got lucid enough to try the task again. I talked to some children and asked them what I didn't know about myself, but I didn't know. Later, while in a bathroom or someplace like that, I heard voices off to my right. I floated down the hall and into the second of two small auditoriums, in which I met a familiar-looking woman, a middle-aged teacher with short blond hair. I asked her what I don't know about herself. Her answer was, paraphrased (don't remember her exact words), what my real strengths are. She said that the things I want to do are not necessarily the things I'm naturally good at.

In my LD last night, I was running around chasing women. There was this one that was really fast and I couldn't reach her, but then I remembered the lucid task. I screamed, "Tell me something about myself I don't know!" And she calls back "You are hot!"

Meh, not too exciting of an answer but I did it

Standard Task Completed!!!

So, I'll just start with the part where I became lucid. I'm in my old bedroom, at my old, house from where we moved about six years ago. I get lucid, and notice someone from my school in the room. Unfortunately, against my better judgment, I decide to have sex with him. In the midst of everything, I remember the task, and push him away. I ask him to tell me something about myself I don't know. He looks humiliated, and dives under the bed. I lift the dust ruffle to find that he has disappeared, and in his place is an empty panda costume. I stand, and find about six people sitting on my bed. I ask, "Can anyone tell me something about myself I don't know?" One of them starts a long, poetic speech. I tried to repeat it to myself as he was saying it so I could remember, but upon waking, I lost most of the middle. Here is what I do recall, "When the words bleed, the truth is twice the lies...hell is not hell." Then I went about trying to find my dreamguide, to no avail.

I completed both tasks last night i levatated a ground hog out of a hole and then a fountain of them came pouring out of the hole and then burrowed back into the hole.

Graysong, you now have your wings.

I asked that our original decision be reversed and that you be given the basic wings.

I see now that the question was not worded in the task thread created by ninja9578 the way it was "originally" suggested in the Lucid Task Club thread.

In the Lucid Task Club thread.. it stated "ask one of the guys, Tell me something about myself that I don't know".

In the Task of the month, ninja only put, "Ask a DC something about yourself that you don't know."

I do see how that could easily be misinterpreted as two different questions.

I apologize and I will do a better job making sure that there are no such misunderstandings in future tasks selected.

With the above being said, warock and Mrmike2, I have sent a PM to Admin to get you your wings as well.

so annoying, when i got Lucid i forget what the task where. i thought it was ask what's the meaning of life so i did, and they all answered that it was no meaning in life.

I "achieved" the first tast the other night. Basically, after I became lucid, I found myself in my garden and my dad was there. This task wasn't actually at the top of my list to do, I wanted to do something else first...but I didn't even think about that task at all.

I walked up to my dad and said "tell me something about myself that I don't know". He didn't hear me properly and thought I said something else and he said something stupid that I can't remember. So I said "NOOOO!! Tell me something about myself that I don't know!" Then he just looked at me and said "I don't know". That annoyed me but I just decided to give up with him. Then I saw my mum and I asked her the same question, but as I was doing so I felt the dream fading so I spun and ended up in a FA. I carried on the lucid dream but must've forgotten the tast after that.

So there you have it, sorry it's not more interesting!

So I was being chased by friend, when all the sudden he yells out, "This is a dream," awesome, right! So I begin exploring telling DCs they were dreaming, one dude was like "so wait you can do anything in a dream? "Even Her?"

lol.

So I remembered the Lucid tasks, looked down on a hill of grass and saw a few holes. I stared at one and commanded the groundhog to rise (telapathiclly), but it didnt rise out of the ground, but prehaps through its series of burrows. Discouraged I took to flight, where after a second I fell on my face and elbows into mud.

A few nights ago I became lucid and wanted to do the advanced task. I thought, "I am going to levitate a groundhog." Then, I thought that was wrong!! I thought the lucid task had to do with turkeys. Aaag! So, I didn't get it done. Grr...

No sucsess... they just seemed to look at me as if i was crazy!

Why aren't the March tasks up yet?

Ahhh..... well submit it to yer lucid task club. I wanna do it. Infact i will anyways if i remember next time I LD.

I got the biggest lucid in my life (approximatly 1 hour real time, cuz I know when it started and when it ended). And I did the basic task in the begining, but now I dont remember it that much, cuz I had like 5-6 FAs.. So I was in this basement thing, pretty lucid and I remembered the task, so I asked one guy "Tell me something about me, that I dont know" (I am not sure if I asked him, to be something I dont know) and he mumbeled something like "You do need help", but in English, which is kindda strange, cuz I asked him in my language, so I continiued in English "I need help is that it, man", and he told me "Hm, no" or something like that, and I think something came and i remebered the advanced task, but forgot what was this groundhog thing even called. So actually I didnt even understood, if I need help or not.

I attempted both tasks last night, and managed to do the basic task.

Basic Task:
I was at a party in a park with a bunch of recurring DCs. I wondered why there were no lights in the park, and it was getting quite dark. I realized I was dreaming. I immediatly floated up into the air. I got everyone's attention and told them I needed their help. I told them I would reward them if they helped me. I said, "Do any of you know something about me that I don't know?" Several DCs raised their hands.

Before I could get their answers the phone rang and woke me up!! I let it go to the answering machine, and of course, whoever was rude enough to call that early hung up without leaving a message! I had stayed in bed and decided to try for a MILD that would return me to the same dream.

At first I could still feel my body in my bed, so I sort of day-dreamed about the last dream until it stabilized. I floated back up into the air. All of the DCs at the party were talking. I told them I had just woken up and hadn't heard their answers. One told me that my 4th grade teacher's name was Mrs. Petersen and that she had been pregnant that year, so I had substitute teachers for that whole school year. I said I already knew that, did anyone else have anything to say? Another DC said that my first grade teacher for 2 weeks before I moved was named "Mrs. Picadilly." But that doesn't sound right to me. I think the DC was just making it up. But I'm not sure, because I can't remember that teacher's name. So, to reward them I made the whole crowd of about 60 DCs levitate.

I had a lot less luck with the advanced task. I couldn't find a groundhog (and it didn't occur to me to just summon one) so I spent several dreams digging up my grandparent's living room floor trying to get to the dirt "because groundhogs live in the dirt." Sometimes my dream idiocy amazes me.

Omg There's Valentines Day In February Not Levitate A Groundhog Day!!!!

That was awesome seeker28!

It shows so much tact on your part, the way you told everyone that you needed their help, and then promised to reward them if they would help you.

And then rewarded them by levitating the whole crowd of 60 DC's.

Levitating a crowd of 60 DC's is a lot more advanced than levitating a ground hog!

ok creepy. i asked something i didnt know about myself and i got "you will find yourself when you are ready god damn it"

and when i levitated a ground hog, after the lower half came out of its little hole in the ground or whatever, i saw a pair of like barbie doll legs. it made no sense at all.

I did the groundhog task! I managed to WILD it was easy. I pointed my index finger at the thing and levitated around my bedroom quite fun. Have to do the 1st task.

These are 2 great examples of what I had hoped would come of this task.

Reakle thats incredible! how did that effect you?


FooFightersKid lol that a cool answer and yeah the purpose of this wuestion is to get to know yourself...lol but that answer is just hilarious ha ha

I had a false awakening today where a man was yelling at me in the bedroom. I became lucid and realized I could overpower him and started yelling back and hitting him with this decorative wooden art thing. I pushed him down the stairs and then remembered the tasks. I saw a cat toy and transformed it into a groundhog, although it looked more like a toy groundhog. I tried to levitate it and it didn't work at first. I closed my eyes for a second and when I opened them it was levitating.

There wern't any other DC's around so I asked the man I had pushed down the stairs to tell me something I don't know about myself. He said I was a "Hunga munga chick" or something.

It actually made me feel alot happier, lately I had been getting into despair. I had been believing horrible things about myself. And i would refuse to believe anything good about me until that dream. It helped to realize what my problem was.

I had a lucid dream last night and I was in my dorm and I became lucid and remembered the lucid task. Luckily my friend was there so I asked him to tell me something about myself that I didn't know. At first he was confused, then he said, "Oh yeah, I remember that now." I remember I had told him IRL about the lucid task and it seems my brain didn't want to tell me anything. I got impatient and decided to go look for a girl to have some fun with.
