NIGHT 2:
This morning I was actually able to recall three separate dream fragments, earning a modest 1.5 points.

Grand Total: 2 pts

Wow, 7 WILDs in one night, that's an astonishing accomplishment that I don't think I've ever seen on DV before. What's your variation on WILD?*

That's a quote (phone fail)

Anyway my expert support secret variation is I slept in a really uncomfortable hotel and kept waking up so I just kept doing WILDs

Last night I had a rubbish night sleep and I remember nothing - 0 points. A great start to the competition.

I'd better choose my three step tasks:

Eat something
Flying
Partial Transformation

From the night of 8-9 February:

- 2 Dreams recalled = 2pts;
- Got Lucid = 5 pts;
- Stabilized dream = 2 pts;
- Basic Summoning (cookie from a bag) = 5 pts;
- Eat something (that cookie) = 4 pts.
------------------------------------------------------
That sums up to 18 points

Competition total: 19 points

PS: Wow, wasn't expecting having that lucid!! x)

Got lucid trough a RC which is also new to me. Just looked around for a minute and then tried to summoned Angelina Jolie :) Lol failed miserably. Got a nice lady instead and woke up shortly after.

I remember a big non lucid dream around True Detective and I'm pretty sure I had at least 2 or 3 other nlucid dreams that I don't remember. Got lazy and didn't took any notes.

I'm not at home and only have my phone with me. I'll update this post tomorrow with DJ links for both the Lucid and non Lucid dream and points earned.

Now I'm going for a wild attempt during a nap.
Woke up at 13 and it's now 16:25. Still feel sleepy so timing wise its good.
Lets see how it goes.

Cheers.

I remember a big NLD about True Detective basically. It started in my home town where me and a friend were talking with a farmer version of Woody Harrelson and ended up in my father-in-law's house watching an episode.

Remember the whole dream - 1 point*

09-03-2014

I remember some short weird fragments:

Fragment one:
There was this weird 9d printing machine (yep not a mistake, not 3d... 9d!!). This machine would scan human and print eatable clones.
There was a dinner party at my place where the food was printed human clones. How weird...

Fragment two:
I was in a Star Wars Jedi Knight Jedi Academy type game hiding in some bush. There were these dogs looking for us (I was not alone).
I remember jumping around Tom Raider mode looking for some cool stuf. Also Remember an old physics teacher from 15 years ago.

Fragment three:
I was talking with my dad in my home town. Apparently he was being deployed in Iraq.
There's a friend of mine (N) waiting for me. He was no longer dating his old girlfriend but some girl from my tennis club.

Remember the fragment of the dream - 0.5 point * 3 = 1.5 point

3 Steep Tasks:
Interact with a Dream Character
Flying
Eat Something

Question?
In my LD I Interacted with a Dream Character.
However I'm posting my 3 seep tasks AFTER the LD. I'm guessing that it doesn't count does it?

Night 2

2 dreams, 2 fragments, wbtb success: 6pts

DILD: become lucid, flying: 9pts

Competition total: 45pts

Excerpt for lucid part that came way late after 9+ hours in bed and getting over the hump of nothing but advanced dreamlets: I am driving through the neighborhood looking for her and I realize - wait a minute, this is not my old or new neighborhood but a dreamy mix of the two, I am dreaming. I am already driving and one of my top 10 lucids was flying in my car, so I pull back on the steering wheel like you would the yoke of airplane and I fly around a bit before everything turns dark and I end up in a very convincing false awakening that I don't catch! Ugh!

I hear you FryingMan...many lucid thoughts sent your way my friend and to the others as well. I really want to do well and it would be cool to win, but I would be most happy if we all go to new heights...seriously. :)

Night two:

Only remember one tiny, lousy fragment. It's no good staying up late dancing and drinking when I've got a competition going on here!! LOL Well, thats another 0,5 points.

Competition total: 3 points

Last score: 7.5

4 fragments, failed WBTB= 3
3+ 7.5= 10.5

Night 3: 6 fragments, failed WBTB= 14.5

Didn't give myself enough sleep with daylight savings. I had a bunch of fragments last night.

6 fragments = 3 points
Wbtb fail = 1 point
Total = 4 points

Comp total = 10 points

2 dreams, wbtb try - 3 points
total for comp - 25.5

Man, no dreams at all since the beginning of the competition. No worries though, it's all a learning experience.

I'm currently at 0 points.

My three tasks:
1. Flying
2. Put my hand through a wall
3. Converse with a dream character.

Does a WILD attempt, and the dream formed, but a few seconds later getting thrown by a hypnic jerk, count as a dream remembered, cuz I remembered the dream formed?
Also, I did a WBTB, but I couldn't fall asleep again, so Imma make it a WBTB till the afternoon nap. Does it count?

Don't forget the full bottle of wine. Think I'm heading in that direction (the wine, I'm avoiding galantamine as I think it has messed with my LD ability) myself with no lucids and no sleep.

About 2.5-3 hours awake starting at 4th hour, after quickly noting some brief and bizarre recall. The dreams were actually medium length but I only retained some fragments.

F^&*! Decided just to give up, took out my earplugs, took off my sleep mask, and decided to listen to the lovely sound of my snoring wife and let whatever will happen, happen. And it was lovely, because she had a close (very close) call with death about 5 years ago, so I'm grateful to have the noise. It maybe even lulled me to sleep.

And of course, according to the paradox of intention, (or sheer exhaustion), when I stopped trying to fall asleep, I fell asleep in the bright noisy room like I have for years without trouble before LDing, and dreamt some interesting reasonably high awareness dreams, but no lucidity.
