Task of the Month for June 2016

[PercyLucid]

NEW: Do you have a Task of the Month suggestion that you would love to get chosen? Now you have the chance to suggest new tasks of the month by clicking the Future Task of the Month Suggestion Thread. If you complete a current TOTM, you will be able to vote on suggestions for the next month! Introduction: This topic is for the Lucid Tasks that are assigned by the Lucid Task Club and the On-Topic Administrator. Please attempt any or all 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. Very important 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: either a basic or an advanced or both (specify in the description field if it was the bonus task). Of course you still need to post the dream here because we check. Please, make sure you post here your attempts both failures and successes, this will make this post much more dynamic and it will make OpheliaBlue/Gab's winging delivering much easier. It will be very appreciated! Whoever completes any 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 a lucid task each month. Members of this club can vote for submitted suggestions for the next month's tasks. Access to the Lucid Task Club will also grant you early access to the next month's tasks, giving you a 2-3 day window to keep your wings for the following month. Tasks for this month: Basic Task i - Pull something out of your butt, literally. Describe what you find. (~Dreamer~) Basic Task ii - Invite a stranger into your home and observe them as they do whatever. (Imazu) Advanced Task i - Erase a three-dimensional object from existence in the dream, without looking away from the object. (Spaceline) Advanced Task ii - Discover a strange crystal, plant or animal and ask someone what it's called. (Imazu) BONUS TASK!! - Jump into the washing machine/dryer and explore the magical land where all lost socks go. (spellbee2)

[PercyLucid]

Really out of your butt? (Rolling eyes) I know, right? Our fellow ~Dreamer~ has a poopy-pee pee-farty mind, what you gonna do Have fun guys and dont drawn in the washer!

Hmmm...I'm averaging only one LD per month so I might only get one chance at this. Still...in my dreams I frequent a bathroom (usually to shower or pee) often enough. Pulling an object out of your butt is pretty memorable, so...who knows???

Pulling an object out of your butt is pretty memorable, so...who knows??? Beware of your limiting self-beliefs and affirmations, you are manifesting: I'm averaging only one LD per month so I might only get one chance at this. Will get you stuck in that, a lucid per month. Your brain, subconscious, dream mind, universe, conciousness, whatever, will reply "Let it be written, let it be done" You have wrote it already, so change your thinking pattern. I'm averaging only one LD per month so I might only get one chance at this. Say instead: So far, I have had one lucid dream average per month, but my lucid dreams are expanding and happening more and more often. I bet I will have several shots at this task. I am completing the ToTM this month! Now go edit your post It is best!

So instead of just peeing in the washing machine last night I should have jumped in? (That things going to rust)

[Spock]

Should be a fun and relatively easy month! The bonus task is going to be a tricky one to try for me, but I have to find out what my brain is going to come up with so I guess I'll have to try it...

[woblybil]

Same here. "Raiders of the lost Socks", ha? If only we knew where lost socks go Actually these are all excellent tasks..More like the old days when we laid eggs or Jumped down the toilet

yay chained my wings! Just yesterday i saw the new TOTMs and had instant lucid dreams this night where i was able to Complete Basic I and Advanced I. The lucid(s) i had where pretty long and awesome and that saved my mood for the day because in all other aspects the night and the rest of the week was terrible. i had very fractioned and low amount of sleep this night with some worries. Nevermind here the TOTM´s here the relevant parts. i probably will write a DJ entry when i find the time: Spoiler for Basic I: I am outside of a building somehow a cat appears and gets angry. she has unbelievably wide pupils. i run into the building where i seem to life. it runs behind me i close several doors until i feel save. my mom is standing there talking something. i go into my room and suddenly know " ah i enter again the room i was before and its not really my room" and i get lucid. i phase thru the door and stand inside "my" room. i look around and think what to do. i remember the fist basic totm. i pull down my pants and feel around my ahole. i just feel some hair. suddenly a guy is standing next to me in the room. he has something of a homeless guy. while talking to him i continue my task and suddenly feel something and pulling. i pull out a sugarcube. i repeat the procedure some time and now have around 5 sugarcubes in my hand. most of them are white and clean. on one of them are some brown sparkles but more like dirt or something not that gross. Spoiler for Advanced I: I am outside. i think that this is a second lucid. there is a calendar and my roommate? is standing in front of it. i notice that it is completely the wrong month and i realize i am (again/still) dreaming. i again think hard about the tasks (didnt memorize them to good because i only give it a short read) and i remember to dematerialize something without looking away. my roommate throw a sleeping back on me some moments ago and i try to make it disappear. but it wont work. [the lucid continues for some time] i am now in a street and a girl is accompanying me i again remember to try the task and want to make a VW Bus disappear. i try with just willpower and concentration but the bus only starts glimm or to get some blotchy wholes/shine. i evaluate loudly also to the girl that this shoudnt be that hard because everything is just a picture and not firm matter. i continue the walk and see a bike. i wipe with my hand over it several times and the bike starts slowly to get transparent and disappear from top to bottom. i am happy about the result and repeat it with another bike and it works like a charm. it disappears without looking away or hiding it with my hand. i try to think about another advanced task but i only remember that it is a task from imazu but not what i feel satisfied and start to fly away waking up not that long after.

Spoiler for Basic I: I am outside of a building somehow a cat appears and gets angry. she has unbelievably wide pupils. i run into the building where i seem to life. it runs behind me i close several doors until i feel save. my mom is standing there talking something. i go into my room and suddenly know " ah i enter again the room i was before and its not really my room" and i get lucid. i phase thru the door and stand inside "my" room. i look around and think what to do. i remember the fist basic totm. i pull down my pants and feel around my ahole. i just feel some hair. suddenly a guy is standing next to me in the room. he has something of a homeless guy. while talking to him i continue my task and suddenly feel something and pulling. i pull out a sugarcube. i repeat the procedure some time and now have around 5 sugarcubes in my hand. most of them are white and clean. on one of them are some brown sparkles but more like dirt or something not that gross. Useful if you're making a cup of tea, although I'd hate to ask for milk. Seeing as I'm focusing more on stabilisation and exploring the dream I should be able to report back on the native fauna and flora of Dream World this month.

Laundry machines are a semi-regular dream sign, I had one not that long ago that included some clothing (even socks I think!). I've had non-lucids where I pulled unpleasant things (parasitic crabs with sharp pinchers!) out of my butt, I think I may skip that one. I also had a non-lucid involving strange glowing green crystals clinging to the underside of a table, that I started collecting. Some prescient dreaming!

[KestrelKat]

I'm so glad pull something out of your butt is one of the tasks for the month I get done with my first year of teaching. My dreaming game has fallen majorly in the last few weeks (to the point where I don't even have the motivation to write down most of my dreams in the mornings) so I'll be working the next two weeks to try to get it back for the summer and for this task!

[Saizaphod]

i continue my task and suddenly feel something and pulling. i pull out a sugarcube. i repeat the procedure some time and now have around 5 sugarcubes in my hand. This is so stupid and funny at the same time But seriously, ~ Dreamer ~ ? Pull something out of your butt, literally.

Tonight i had a night with a lot of dreams and some were lucid. i attempted the bonus task several times and in the last lucid i was able to complete it the recall of the night could be better. i wrote some of the dreams down after an hour of being awake without tagging at night :/ i really should put more effort in it ... Spoiler for Bonus Task: 1. lucid: I play around with magic balls, throwing green, red and blue balls of light. at that point i get lucid and remember the bonus task. i start flying around like superman and this time flying feels very easy, awesome and fast. i land in a city and look around for a washing machine. i expect one to find in a washing saloon or maybe a shop for electric things. fair enough i find after a short time a an electric store and enter it. i see a washing machine but somehow i feel like its not good enough because its not running or something? i move on and keep looking around and i think i woke up shortly after. 2. lucid i get lucid for some reason and again start flying around and want to go the same approach like in the first lucid but somehow hulk is in the city and he seems very angry... throwing stuff at me and want to fight but i dont want to so i fly away as fast as i can and the scenario is changing. 3. lucid: i get lucid for i dont remember the reason anymore i sit in a house with some of my kids out of my youth group. for some reason i throw some energyballs again (probably because its cool ) i throw some on my kids and tell them the green one are for endurance, the red one for strength and the blue one i dont remember anymore. it should help them climbing. i stand up and move into another room and somehow recognize my home and i know that we have a washing machine in the kitchen so i enter the kitchen and without much thinking move against the window of the machine but its solid... hm i need to think of an approach. i open it but somehow dont fit in. [here i might have wake up and deild back in, i am not sure] so i close my eyes and start crawl inside expecting to enter the machine and to enter a new world when opening my eyes again and suddenly i sit with someone (a girl i think) i sit on a meadow and look around, take a piece of paper to note down how the world looks and what is different. on our right side there is a building. in front of us is a lot of meadow and a hill going steep down. she tells me in english i think (so not my native language) something about windmills. i dont understand her in the first moment but she repeats and i look up and see 3 to 5 windmills at the horizon. i feel like collecting enough facts. take a jump and roll down up front the complete hill. i roll very fast and it starts to feel not that good so i stop and start flying. i fly over a sea or something and on the right side there is a square space where about 15 ergometers (indoorbikes) are standing around without anyone using them or making any sense there. shortly after i wake up. so in my opinion i would count this one as completed even though i didnt saw or find any socks also i "cheated" a little to enter the land... i might do it better but yea i dont know... if you feel it not completed i wont say anything against it and try again

[VenusDreamer]

The lost socks bit, that's so cute XD I might have to give that one a go! I think I definitely will try to do the "invite a stranger into my home" task. I feel like it would be interesting

6/08 Bonus Task Fail.......(Or Washing machine failure) 1:30pm ..Not my fault, I did not make the washing machine..... I woke up and had to go to the bathroom but saw an exotic washing machine, Not mine! (Lucid now) It had a toilet bowl shaped lid and inside was a black liner of some kind, Like a black dishpan with a movable upside down cone shaped thing in it which I assumed was for women, I couldn't jump in so I decided to pee in it.. I fumbled with the black plastic thing trying to remove it but I started to wiz before I got it out so I just sat on it and pee'd until I woke up for real, Dry as the Mojave too.

I completed the basic task but it was waaay harder than I thought it would be. Why did you have to go and make my dream so freudian?!? haha The dream got a little explicit, but based on the nature of the task I think that's okay. haha Spoiler for Basic Task: Someone decided to shoot me. Right in the balls I might add. When I realized it didn't hurt at all I became lucid and gave them a very bad day. Anyways, after dealing with that situation I saw a cute girl and considered letting my primal urges take over but no, I have to finish my task first! I thought the "pull something out of your butt" task would be easiest so I reached into my pants and felt around down there. Nothing unusual to report. I tried willing something to be there but based on my previous lucid my control isn't quite as strong as it used to be. Instead of waiting I stuck my finger up there. Yep, feels pretty much like I would expect. Gross. I looked at my hand and had a bit of a skid mark. I don't think that counts so I wiped it off on something and contemplated what to try next. I remembered an idea I had before bed. It should be pretty easy to summon a string hanging out of my butt to make it easy to pull something out. I try that and find a string. I pull but it ends up being a butt hair. OUCH! Maybe I can have this girl help me find something. I ask her to come over and look around for me. I got a little um, distracted. When I remembered what my actual task was I got frustrated and she disappeared. You know what, I'm going to complete this task one way or another. I found a Sharpy on the ground and put it up my butt. That's right, a Sharpy... from the ground... Once I got it up to the cap I pulled it out. I did it! I completed my first task of the month in years! To celebrate, I summoned two more girls and had some fun. After a false awakening I tried to find a washing machine to do the bonus task but after another false awakening and a real awakening I decided to work on that tomorrow.

Did basic 1 but it was so gross I'm not willing to tell you guys about it. I regret my choice of task to try.. lol

[Saizaphod]

Did basic 1 but it was so gross I'm not willing to tell you guys about it Now you have to tell us all about it. You are obligated to, we demand it

[RelaxAndDream]

yea come on, i mean it was to expect that atleast some people would happen something gross. just stay over it, an accomplishment is an accomplishment

[imazu]

Lmao ok ok, here we go: Spoiler for Yuckyyy Basic 1: A nightmare leads to lucidity via nose RC. I almost try to resolve the nightmare situation but decide to abandon it instead. I do vague exploring things until I finally think of the TOTM to pull something out of my butt. I'm in the living room of a random house, watching TV with the three residents who are all guys my age. I have some inhibition at first because people are there, but dismiss that pretty quickly because I know it's a dream. I reach in and immediately find poop. I keep digging but find only more of the same. Freaking gross. I wipe off my hands on the furniture (lol!!) and fly out the door.
