Yes, sounds fun huh? I'm curious to see what happens after people explode.

lol I'll get the hamburger one out the way ASAP....and I'll probably end up spending the rest of the month trying to blow myself up

Finally a decent task :p

High 5 to whoever thought of explode.

I came up with both The TOTM club was pretty dead this month

I gotta say, I'm a fan of the explode one...

The other one... I kind of hate. Only because it's easy.

Explode?? Wow. I have to say that I have never imagined doing that. Now does it have to be specific like exploding from inside out originating within the body? Or can you be defusing a bomb and time runs out? Either way sounds fun.

Burger huh. Ima try to make a specific one like a 4x4 from in-n-out. Never thought bout exploding myself but you just gave me a great idea lmao.

I would like to be a part of this club. I've got some free time to spend somewhere and this looks like fun. would be cool if we could add 1 extra challenge per month as an extra tough task. just pm me and talk to me about it sometime.

I really like the second task so I plan on doing this tonight and posting in my dream journal the results.

I also just finished posting my tutorial I mentioned earlier and heres the link for that:

It's more than just a tutorial its also an experiment to see how well people can learn the techniques so the tutorial will change over time to better suite people on this site.

looking forward to the insane explosion i create tonight. XD

Yes, I completed both the Basic task and advanced task.
I had a DEILD, in a form of a false awakening, so I already knew I was dreaming. Here's my dream:

I 'woke up' in my bed, already knowing I was dreaming. I got out of bed, and examined my room, to increase clarity. Then, I walked over to my pink curtain, and felt the material. Like in real life, the curtain was smooth, and velvety. I felt the curtain for about 5 seconds. I walked over to my closed bedroom door. As I had my hand on the door knob, I took in 4 deep breaths and said out loud, " there is no need to rush, this is just a dream, I have lots of time." I proceeded, to open the door. Everything looked exactly the same. I went into the kitchen, when I remembered the basic lucid task, which was to eat a hot dog. So, I opened the fridge, expecting there to be hot dogs, and there were along with chocolate cake.There were about 7 hot dogs in the middle of the fridge, all had steam coming from them. I reached for the longest hot dog, I could feel the heat, it felt like it could burn my hand. Once my hand reached the hot dog, I pulled it back as soon as I could. I tired to think of what I could do, when I saw a fork on the counter next to the fridge. I took the fork, stuck it in the hot dog, and plopped it in my mouth. The hot dog didn't really taste like a hot dog, it tasted more like a barbecued sausage, but I wasn't complaining. After I finished eating the hot dog, my stomach started to rumble, I could hear it and feel it. Each time the rumbles got louder and louder, and I started to get a headache. All of a sudden, I exploded, it felt like my limbs were being stretched apart. Then, the dream switched to 3rd person. Tuna splattered all over the place when I exploded, then I switched to 1st person again, but I was a different person. I continued on with my dream, which lasted for about another 3 minutes, then I woke up to write it all down. I'm so happy that I finally completed the tasks.

I attempted the Basic Task of the Month once more, with disgusting results:

Spoiler for My Attempt:

I run to the pantry and open the door, sticking my hand in without looking inside. I tell myself that there'll be a hamburger there. I wrap my hands around something and excitedly pull out. I've nearly done it - instead of a hamburger, I have a hamburger bun. I'm a bit frustrated, but I play it off. That makes sense, I think. I mean, the actual burgers would be in the refrigerator, right? I open the fridge and look around, disgusted: the only meat I find is deli turkey.

I go into a rage. I rip open the package and stuff the turkey in the buns, smashing them together. I jam it into my mouth. 'This counts!' I scream to no one. 'I've just completed the basic task of the month - THIS COUNTS!'

I know, I know - it doesn't count
