      Task of the month for August 2010

      Introduction:
      This topic is for the Lucid Tasks that are assigned by me or voted on by experienced dreamers. Please attempt one or both of these tasks throughout the month.

      Report back in this thread, even if you didn't successfully accomplish the task, your efforts should make interesting reading! This is required in order to get credit, it is no longer sufficient just to say that you did it.

      When you complete a task: go to your control panel, then to permission groups, and request to be in the group that applies to the task that you've done. Of course you still need to post the dream here because I check.

      Whoever completes either of these tasks gets the following goodies until the end of the month:
      • Your name will be displayed in ORANGE in the online members list at the bottom of the main forum page.
      • You will receive a special title and badge.
      • You will receive access to the "Lucid Task Club" which is a limited access forum for people that complete the lucid task each month.


      Tasks for this month:

      Basic Task - Find something of each of the primary colour*

      Advanced Task - Ride a unicorn

      *The Primary Colours are Red, Yellow, and Blue

      How's the basic ?
      For example: I find a blue cup, A green painting and a red notebook. That's it ?

      Riding a unicorn looks fun, haha.

      Yes, you can!! I will start right away. Good for you that I just found this thread, and it's 6:21 PM.... the tasks are super boring so my MILD will be weakened for this... but... expect me to do this within 1-2 days!!!! I will pwn the unicorn afterward though... I do not like unicorns lol... a dragon is way more vicious!!!!!!

      I saw no lucid from you max, so I guess your head start did not give you a lucid... we'll see tonight... if you have been MILDing the whole day, you have 10 hours head start from me, but I just started to incubate this...

      Percy readies Unicorn summoning and Prismatic Rod (a rod that has all three primary colors)

      EDIT: Damn... if I just saw it yesterday, I would have complete it. I had two lucids last night (will upload later) Did not expect this was going to launched almost a week before the 1st!!! I expected it to come on the 30-31st!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

      @ Percy, beat ya this month! But you still hold the award for the earliest accomplishment, though.
      Shouldn't this be in task of the month sub-forum?

      Good job dude!

      Yep, you did beat me No lucids last night.

      Too bad I did not seen this task on the day posted, as I had two lucids that night! Oh well. It was posted so early that at least I will complete it before the month ends (probably tonight) so the both of us will have the wings the entire month as well.

      The advanced task is perfect! I've been meaning to go back to that miniature Unicorn farm that I found in an old lucid. This will be my incentive. ^^

      I posted this in the wrong place, it was supposed to go here, it was posted yesterday:

      Well Max! I had an awesome night with a lot of vivid (non lucid) dreams and I still did not complete this. I see its not exciting at all for me, specially after you beat me this month, there is no challenge! I usually need 1 or 2 nights only for these tasks.

      Today I received a golden professional offer that will step up my career and earnings to a whole new level (and not from the Olive Oil company, thanks God!) So right now I can think of anything but Unicorns... my MILD will be involuntary screwed for a few nights for sure... This thing went too deep into my subconscious for sure! I am very excited and I am not dreaming (I RCed)

      Yay

      'Grats, mate! I admit I was a little freaked by reading all those olive oil dreams in your DJ. So hopefully you now work somewhere with zombies or killer sharks or something!

      Well, I can do this! Either of them. But, um, the basic colors are yellow, red, and blue. Green? That is a secondary color .
      If you see a strange typo in my post, blame my iPad for that.

      Thanks a lot Max!!!!

      I am very excited about it. Do not feel bad. I want you to try as hard as possible every night/month. It just the tasks of this month were super lame.

      But you know what...

      Lucidmax.... On time! Did the task!!! With all the new emotions about my success in my career, I dreamed it after all, go figure.

      Lucid Dream within a long non lucid dream (DILD)

      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

      Not a bad night but neither an awesome night. I went to bed very late and I needed to wake up early (in fact earlier as I want to send this asap)

      I was in a big apartment. I was there with my wife and some friends. In fact, we lived there with another couple and we even sleep with them. The other couple was not as unite as I am with my wife. He wanted to have sex with her and at the same time he was afraid. She was upset about it. She also wanted to have sex but she wanted to wait. Both of them knew I had a lot of eloquence and he was afraid I would convince his girlfriend to have sex with me. She did not want to have sex with me, she wanted to be loyal, but at the same time, she was afraid that my eloquence would convince her to have sex. She also knew I was powerful in my dreams. She though it was all about my pillow, or something odd. I told her if she needed to badly to have sex, we could have sex in a shared lucid dream. I used my eloquence to convince her and she fell for it. We were convinced we would meet in a lucid dream. We went to sleep

      I had a false awakening and for some reason I knew I was dreaming. My lucidity was not awesome, I realized I was dreaming in my bed, but in my dream bed, not in my real wakin bed (yes, a dream within a dream) I was in a big hall.







      It was a huge fancy hotel. There were enormous chandeliers, beautiful ones. There were several red and golden carpets. There were no DC at all. I could hear the chatter of loose male voices, but nothing else. In a small table I saw different tubes of paint (for portraits, not regular wall paint) I remembered I had to pick certain colors. I saw some odd colors but I grabbed a blue one, a yellow one and a red one. I had all three, I decided to place them in a basket by themselves. I grabbed a light brown wooden basket. The basket had a small napkin. I placed the tubes inside. Red, yellow, blue. I closed up the basket and prepared as a gift. I look at the basket and said, "This is a gift that contains all three colors" I realized that I did both "one of each color" and/or "something with all three colors" As it was not clear what to do I did both. A little after this, I saw other baskets with several more colors, like rainbow ones, that contained all the primaries and secondaries ones.

      I big door opened. I though in meeting my female friend. I realized I was going to have my first dream share. I was excited. The door opened and I though, "It is just a stupid white horse. Damn it" I realized I had to ride it. Now it had a small shinny horn in the middle of its third eye. It was a unicorn all right. I rod it, I think for a few seconds and jumped out of it. I said, "I did ride the stupid unicorn, both tasks done. Where is my female lover!" The unicorn was gone and I saw a couple of male DC. We started to talk about being in a lucid dream.
      My lucididy level decreased here, but I was still lucid. I told them I was dreaming, waiting for a hot female friend that needed sex in waking, but could not have it. I told them I was loyal to my wife and I would no have sex for real with her. They told me it was a good idea. They asked me that they wanted to do the same. I told them we were already in a dream, but they could try to go to sleep in the lucid and awake in other place. They left to do it. I then realized that at least for me, if I went to sleep in a lucid I would awake, I did that before. I started to walk around to see if I finally meet with this lady. My dream vanishes.

      I have a False Awakening in the bed I "went to sleep" initially. I was alone now in my bed, but I could hear the other female DC. She told me that she broke up with his boyfriend because he left with my wife. I was not hurt about it, so I had some degree of very low lucidity. I wanted then to find this lady. I left my place and knew she lived in an Arabic country. I was going to fly (in a plane) to her country, however, I appeared right there.
      I was in the middle of an Arabic bazaar







      I was a little afraid. I did not know the language and I was not sure if I could communicate. I did not know either if I wanted to make a new life there or what. I saw a small wooden house, it was a restaurant so I decided to enter it. I could not understand a word of the environmental chatter. I saw some small tables without cloth. They had a small candle. I saw some DC eating odd food. The restaurant was not very full, in fact, it was almost empty. I did not find this lady here so I exited the restaurant.
      I saw a big hill, it was very green, full of grass. I saw a small home at the very end. As I approached the house, the female DC exited the home with a white dress. The wind moved her dress and her hair. I felt very good. We met and kissed. We entered her place. Her place was very big (in was bigger than her house from the outside) It had several stores and a lot of fancy rooms. We had to watch out for her family, they could not spot us. We started to make out, but a male voice approached so we stopped. It was her dad. I can't remember what he did told her. We went to another room and we started to make out and we had sex (I remember a lot of detail here, but I won't share due minors in the board. Add one more paragraf and allow your imagination to run... probably you will be close)
      Her mom suddenly appeared. She jumped off me and I kept laying on my back. Her mom asked her something, smiled at me and greeted me. She asked me what I was doing lying on my back (I had clothes now) I told her I was meditating. I kept looking at the roof and I woke up.

      Missed dream signs:
      - Four people in my bed.
      - Talking about dreams in the dream.

      Noticed dream sings:
      - The FA.

      Reality check performed:
      - None.

      Second part missed dream signs:
      - The FA.
      - Abrupt scenery change.
      - Not being spotted by the DC's mom.

      What I would have done if lucid:
      - Probably wake myself up due long lucid.

      Wait, I thought green could be made by mixing blue and yellow, which makes it a secondary color, right? Oh come ON, didn't you ever mix blue and yellow clay balls to get green? O-o

      Apparently it's more complex than that, and when you go check Wikipedia for primary colors and you see a chart of color waves you know it can't be wrong -_-

      The primary colors for light are different than those from the normal primary colors, the primary colors are indeed red, yellow, and blue. That wikipedia article is referring to the colors used in a CRT monitor.

      I can definitely say as an IGCSE art student, the primary colours are indeed red, yellow and blue. Haven't you guys ever mixed paints in kindergarten and elementary school to see what colours you get? Red, yellow and blue are primary colours and when you mix those you get green, purple and orange which are secondary colours. When you mix those you get tertiary colours but that's kinda off topic... I think what you guys mean, like what scrumpy said, were the light colours which are red green and blue and when you mix those you get yellow, cyan and magenta.

      Anyway, i've never gotten around to completing a lucid task of the month so i'm really excited for the unicorn
