Thread: Winter Competition 2024

Ended up remembering a segment in one of my dreams where I became lucid, so I updated my point total for night 13! It was short but I'm glad I was able to get at least one lucid before this competition ended. Hoping for more tonight!

Bah...I passed out on the couch after eating a truckload of sushi and chicken fried rice! No recall for me, but I did some RCs at work so there's that. Tonight is my last shot for a lucid during competition...

It's a conspiracy, our dream locations have been mystically switched

I never lived in FL but I do have a lot of family down there. And if things like weird strong emotions and completely confusing nonsense situations are dream-signs, well then most of my visits are constant dream-signs in waking life, haha.

Spoiler for LDs:

night 11 DILD- I caught a false awakening and flew outside and noticed a golf course in the style of Sim Golf and observed some people playing golf until I woke up.
night 13 DILD-I became lucid in a grocery store and noticed some two-foot-tall dancing gummy bears on the floor and observed them until I woke up.
night 14 DILD-I caught a false awakening and phased through a window and flew outside and landed in a park. I made a VR headset appear in my hands in front of me and put it on. I told it to teleport me to a forest and on the screen a timer counted down. The moment the timer hit 0, I had another false awakening. I got out of bed and noticed I was in a store with wallpaper including trees on the walls. I went outside and noticed the stars light up, group up and come towards me and stop as if they were available to collect. I touched them to collect them as if I was collecting coins in a video game until I woke up.

I seem to have lost track or missed a day here as i am posting this it is about noon on the 20th so the comp will be officially over for me in a few hours... *rcs. I wish I could have put more time and effort into practice but I was starting off a college semester and a new job. Got a few short lucids off at least. Either way was a cool comp with a fun theme feel like I missed out on getting to turn into a giant monster. Thanks for hosting.

Finally got a lucid, at the competition's eleventh hour

Hi espsika,

I have your entries for Nights 1 through 8 scored. Do you have entries from Night 9 to Night 14 that you want me to score? If not, there isn't anything else to score for ya!

And you are welcome! Thank you for joining in!

Thank ya!

Reminder!

As we're waiting for the final entries to come in, please post your number of DJ Comments, Improvement Bonus (what you got in previous comps before any end-game bonuses, and what you got now), and notify me of any potential errors in the scoring so I can resolve them. Looking forward to seeing how this all spins out!

It looks pretty dire for the Humans, but we haven't heard from either of the Human experts for some time...will they save the day?! Or will the Titans crush humanity back into the stone age! We will see!

I did beat my previous high score of 235.5 from last Summer

I count 10 comments for myself, not super active there ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Hi theshirecat,

I have points and entries to post for nights 12, 13 and 14, and I know I haven't uploaded my artwork yet (scanner wasn't working when I tried). I haven't been feeling great the last couple days with headaches, so do you mind if I post tomorrow or so? I slept quite badly last night

No problem at all. Post when you are feeling better
