#### Classic Idea Re-request: Glitch dream zones!

If I could have just one wish granted in glitch, it would be the fulfilment of this idea I had last year:
Glitch dream zones!!
these would be accessed by going home (or to your campsite, subway station sleeping locker, etc) and interacting with a bed (/tent/tatami mat/etc).
you could take a short nap, a good night's sleep or even an extended hibernation. you'd do this when you're going to be afk or unable to play for some time, and upon your return, a special dream area/quest/mini-game is unlocked.
this would be fun because a) a glitch dream zone would be awesome, and b) it would provide an incentive to step away from the game and get some sleep or fresh air or whatever ;)
the zones could be the dreams of different giants. whereas the world is a collective imagining, these areas would allow you to interact with places that reflect individual giants' personalities.
maybe an associated skill path could be dream walking. early levels of this skill allow you to access the dream zones for short times or in less of an interactive way, or maybe just more basic dreams, while higher levels of the skill allow you to spend more time in the dream, or offer more interactive and vividly detailed dreams.
in closing, I would just like to say, glitch dream zones! :)

- Seems like an awesome idea! I think that (with the right parameters) it could be a really neat addition to Glitch.

- A thought on the dream walking skill, what if no matter what you went into the dream space, but with the dream walking skill you could explore it a bit more?

- I like the idea of an area you can only reach via sleeping. We had something like that in FaunaSphere, and it was great fun :D You got there by sleeping on a "dream pillow", a special item that you were able to obtain via a quest.
  I really love the idea of having a place to rest and regenerate, too. You'd be able to see the mood/energy boosts intermittently (like the periodic energy draining during tinkering), and be able to stop at any time (ie. whenever you decide you have had enough of a boost).

- Love this idea. I think it would also be cool that when you go afk if your at your house near a bed, you go to dream land and your character goes on a randomized adventure while hes asleep :)

- In my dreamland will I get as many platforms as everybody else? Can I cultivate them? Can I put my machines there?
  JK.
  Good idea.

- did i mention that when dreaming, there should be a small chance that you are gifted with a Portentous Dream of the Giants? think buffy the vampire slayer if that helps. this would probably be a dark and spooky dream in which you are granted a glimpse of the future. maybe something simple like foresight of an upcoming rook attack. or maybe it would be a clue to some big world-event-type Happening. maybe you would have to go talk to Helga about your dream, and she would help you interpret the dream and send you on a related quest. maybe Helga might need to gather clues from the dreams of several glitches in order to gain the knowledge needed to trigger some sort of world events.
  in closing, i would just like to say, glitch dream zones. with Portentous Dreams and world events! who's with me?!

- Love this idea! It would be really good for me, because I often find myself on glitch instead of doing my coursework or sleeping, because I always feel that "ooh, my herbs might have grown!" or "I could get 10k IMG before the game day ends..."
  But if I was unable to do anything in game for a while, and then got a fun reward afterwards, it would be really brilliant!
