Autumn Competition 2023 Signups

**Saizaphod** · 08-22-2023 11:22 PM

Summer green to autumn gold, does it mean a meeting old?
Yes it does! New season, new competition!

If you've never been part of the competitions, check out the previous comp here for an example for how it works.

The competition will be held between September 1st - September 15th. Signups will be open until 31st of August 11.59pm Eastern Time.

If you are interested in joining, reply to this post with the following:
- What league you would like to join
- Your average rate of lucidity
- Your best guess as to your availability during the competition, on a scale of 1-5 (1 - incredibly busy, 5 - completely free)

The rates listed by the leagues are suggestions, but if you're feeling bold, feel free to try a higher league.

Please don't join unless you are reasonably certain you can contribute for the entire 2 weeks.

TIP: Pick up the flow even before the comp begins! Some people begin having more lucids as they get familiarized with lucid dreaming beforehand.

Expert League - 1 lucid/2 nights to 1+ lucids/night

I am in this time.

- intermediate
- who knows, 1 per week at the moment, typically more in comps
- 3-4

**Oneirin** · 08-23-2023 12:52 AM

Ready to go!!
1. I'm thinking intermediate since I'm not 100% consistent week to week and still working on consistency with advanced control- but stick me where you need me!
2. So I averaged about 2-3/w in July and about 10/week so far in August (so let's say 2-10/w)
3. I'm really going to try to be a 5. I expect to be posting every day.

Super excited! Thanks again for all the time and effort Sai!!

**JustPhillip** · 08-23-2023 01:34 AM

I'm in.
1- Going for Intermediate, but if things go well this week I might be able to move to expert with 1-2 per night
2 - Personal stuff brought me from nightly to weekly, but I think that'll change sometime this week.
3 - 4-5 100%

**FryingMan** · 08-23-2023 09:26 AM

I'm SO in! I will choose intermediate. My LD rate is low still, and I'll undoubtedly be at the bottom of the intermediate group, but I hope this will really give me the kick in the pants I need, and I had a short LD last night in fact woohoo

. I usually manage a clump of lucids with some tasks by the start of the 2nd week of the comp, so intermediate is what I'll choose.

1: Intermediate.
2: 4 in August so far, but all clumped in the first week, and 1 last night

. I usually manage a burst of LDs in the comp.
3: 4ish, will update daily.

**MadMonkey** · 08-23-2023 05:29 PM

I have been having lucids but my recall is pretty low but competitions tend to make me do better so I'd say I'm intermediate league.

1) Intermediate
2) 1/week
3) 4. Should be able to update most days

**Iluzjusz** · 08-23-2023 05:33 PM

I: Begginer league
II: 1-2 LD/ month (but right now i'm on vessel and my LD rate dropped to 0)
III: 3. Updates depends on internet connection and my job circumstances. Estimate 2-3 updates per week

If it is possible I will make 1 full dream description for each day and rest of dreams will be simplified. Of course my LD's will be with full description also

**BrickSnake** · 08-23-2023 05:43 PM

1. Intermediate
2. Thrice per week
3. 4/5

**theshirecat** · 08-23-2023 05:57 PM

I'm in!
Gonna say intermediate, 1-2 lucids per week, 4-5 availability.

**Meiseki** · 08-23-2023 06:08 PM

Been a while since I've been on, but I wanna participate!

1. Beginner this time.
2. Haven't been practicing lately, dropped to about once a month.
3. 1-2. I don't think I've ever been this busy in my life... Uploads will be late, but I'll try to get them all out!

**PremiumOtter** · 08-23-2023 07:00 PM

Missed the last comp cuz I’m only on DV once every few months, but I’m glad I caught this one.

- Beginner
- No LD’s yet
- 5

**Box77** · 08-23-2023 09:31 PM

Yay! Definitely I’m in! Couple of days ago started to feel the wave getting closer

- Beginner
- Still on an everlasting dryspell although my recall got better
- 3-4 I might be missing some days

**JadeGreen** · 08-24-2023 01:02 AM

Put me in beginner for balancing I haven't had a proper lucid dream since june 28th. If I pick up the flow good in the next week I might ask to change to intermediate.
Availability is about a 2. I'm going back to school, but I should be able to sneak out short posts here and there.

**dolphin** · 08-24-2023 07:36 AM

intermediate
2-3 lds per week
3

**DorianMask** · 08-24-2023 08:53 AM

Let's do this! The summer comp was a blast, been in somewhat of a dry spell lately so maybe a couple weeks of conditioning prior will whip me into shape in time!

-Demoting myself to beginner
-Couple LDs a month maybe
-Availability 5, will be more studious about journaling daily

Thanks again for all the work you put into making this happen Saiza!

Dream well everyone

Well crap. A major trip got thrust upon me at the last minute. I'll be distracted, traveling, and jet lagged for the entire competition. So I should probably just ~~withdraw~~ -> switched to beginner, wouldn't be fair to my team

**Harlequin** · 08-31-2023 02:32 PM

I'm just getting back to dream journaling this week after some personal life issues... I would love to join, but I'll be traveling for the first week of the competition, so I think it would be better to stay out and see how it goes. I'll definitely join the next competition though!

EDIT: I'll sign up for the second week :-)

- League: Intermediate
- Rate: been on a monthlong break so hard to say, but before that, I was getting lucid about 1/2 of nights
- Availability: 2, I'll be traveling from September 2 to September 9 (will have my computer, but will also be busy doing things). The next week, not very busy.

**cedwards105** · 08-31-2023 03:56 PM

Yay! Another competition!

League: Beginner
Frequency: Somewhere around 1 per month these days
Availability: 3-4

**Bridger** · 09-08-2023 04:31 AM

Hey there!

Just came back to look at recent activity and saw the competition going on! Sorry for being late to the party, but is there room for 1 more for the second week??

League: Intermediate
Frequency: If I get back into practice (which I'm doing!) ~ 1 a week
Availability: 4 (Mornings and evenings on Mountain Daylight Time work for me)

My favorite animal is a Red Fox so that's my number one pick for teams, however place me wherever I'm needed to balance the competition!
