Welcome to the first Remote Viewing challenge. Here are the instructions.

Target and date

You may have attended the ASD Psiberdreaming Conference in 2003. Dale Graff organized a Remote Viewing contest at that time. The first Remove Viewing we are going to do, will follow Dale's approach as closely as possible. There will be one exception. It is a secret who is playing "Dale" this time.

Dale's approach means that the target provider will be actually at the target location, and will try to send the target to the viewers for 30 minutes. The target provider makes photo's and a sketch of the location, and also a written description.

The date is set for Saturday, May 15, 2004. The target provider will start sending at the following time:

- Istanbul: 8 pm
- Paris, Amsterdam, Copenhagen: 7 pm
- London: 6 pm
- New York: 1 pm
- Los Angeles: 10 am

For more times, see Time and Date.com

Submitting results

There are a few rules when you want to officially join the challenge.

You're expected to send in a description of the location, obviously. One or more sketches will greatly help. Email your results to the target provider of this month, at the following email address: RVTarget@aol.com, and make sure to do so within 72 hours after the start of this challenge. Simply add three days to the time above.

Discussion of the results

After the three days, I will open a discussion thread, introduce the target provider to you all, and ask you to post your results online.

About deciding who wins. It depends on what we consider important about the description. We could approach it as a way to locate the target. Or we could approach it as an exploration of the target. I suggest we give more weight to the first, the usefulness of the description for locating the target.

There are no other guidelines yet on deciding who wins. The target provider will accept advice on how to decide, but is the only one who gets to make the final decision.

Good luck!

Harry

P.S. Just to be clear, the challenge is open to everyone. Give it a try, it's fun! There's a webpage with some background information.

The prize has been donated by Laura Atkinson. It's a small, framed original kirlian photograph of dream energy. Thank you Laura!

Not yet on the list? Send me an email at hbosma@xs4all.nl and you will receive RV Challenge announcements too.

RV instructions

Welcome to the first Remote Viewing challenge. Here are the instructions.

Harry -
As in the 2003 Psiberviewing contest, should we include both impressions of the target received at the stated time and in our dreams the following night (which would certainly help out the Aussies!)?

Curt

Setting a time is difficult. I had a feeling that there would be no west coast people participating, or are there? Jajofar, welcome too. Are you perhaps USA west coast? Next time we could try to move the time a few hours to make it easy for Australians.

About the time. I'm not sure how important it is to do the remote viewing exactly on the time given above. Personally I don't worry about it too much. I was seriously tempted to give it a try a few days ago, but could resist. However, I'm not sure whether the target provider made the selection yet.

About sending multiple entries. Less is more. One is best (for example one rv), two is the maximum (for example one rv, one dream). Basically, my suggestion would be that somebody who sends in one location that's on target, has done better than somebody who sends in multiple locations with one among them that is on target.

Oh, while I plan to parcitipate myself, I'm not a contender for the price, naturally. Too much inside information.

It's only a few hours before the official start. Remember, everyone is welcome to participate. It costs nothing. No special skills or experience is required. This is just for fun.

Good luck all!

Harry

My remote viewing responsibility is almost over. The time is now 3:06 p.m. EST, and I will now be downloading my digital pictures and sketch, and putting them onto a web page to be viewed by all three days from now.

Please send your RV descriptions, sketches, impressions, etc to: RVTarget@aol.com In the email, please explain to me if you are submitting a "waking" RV or a "dream" RV description (or one of each). Please...maximum only one of each before the deadline.

I cannot wait to reveal my secret identity.
Yours Truly,
RVTarget

Have there been many reports sent in?

Mermaid

Harry tells me that if everyone on his list responds, there should be about 15 reports.

So far, I have two.

Remember, we are tying together the international community and time zones / daily activities don't always allow for quick online replies.

I am sure that there will be plenty more to come soon.

Thanks!
Your friendly RV Target.

I did not join Harry Bosma's list prior to this contest, but I am assuming that entries are allowed within 72 hours so long as they are sent to: RVTarget@aol.com.

Is this correct?

Thank you,

Goshengolly

I think Harry is in a time zone where he would be sleeping right now. I will take liberty and answer.

This is open to anyone. As long as they send their submissions to RVTarget@aol.com.

Thanks,
RV Target

I have received 9 submitted RV reports, with a great combination of both waking and dreaming. Five have submitted sketches / computer images.

Also - I send out an reply acknowlegement email. If you have submitted a report, and have not received an acknowlegement email - please send again - or leave a message to me on the board (however - do not include your RV report on the board)

Thank you,
RV Target

Bed time for me, but you're all in good hands...

For those who are hesitating, just give it a try. You may surprise yourself.

Harry
