Why would you need a totem in a lucid dream? When you lucid dream you know you're dreaming. You only need a totem when you're unsure and live in Inception world.
FII cube as my totem?

You can also control whatever's in your dream. You can manipulate the totem in any which way you desire, so theres not much point.

When you're lucid dreaming you know you're dreaming, but you also have to do "reality checks" to be sure.

Which is why there is that thing about looking at your hand or something. I assume a totem would be like that.

yeah. what if you were lucid dreaming for 10+ hours dream time? Then you'd prolly be WTF is this reality?
To the OP:
Fill the cubies on your F-II with different things. Eg, fill one side with tape, then another with erasers, then another with lego, etc.
Inception was a fantastic movie,btw, to those who haven't watched it yet.

It's okay for others to know what it is, so long as you're the only person who knows the weight.

Oh. I see. But this is rather confusing. If I know that your totem is supposed to stop spinning in the real world, can I not construct my dream in such a way that the physics for spinning are taken into account?

i would say hide something in a corner piece so that piece is heavier and you can open it up and check it.
my favorite movie btw.

That particular totem was the only one in the movie to keep on spinning, in dreams. Not all totems are like that.
The guy should know if he's in his own dream, so yes, he can construct it to stop spinning, but this is different for people whom haven't felt it, so they can't make a dream with the exact specifications needed to stop the totem from spinning...
confusing

What's the point of having a totem? It's like a reality check or something so you can do whatever in your dream? Have not seen inception so I dunno.

Loosen a side so that when you do a fingertrick, it would spin forever.

that's a good one. How about this: in a dream, it'll always get solved by 6 sexy moves!
As for spinning: do the specs matter? What works is gravity and friction right?

This thread is glorious.
Though I think someone had already stated this, but wouldn't helping you mod your totem make the totem worthless? XD;

Awesome movie
What I think would be really cool is to become pro at lucid dreaming, and then do things in the dream world that you would never dream of doing in the real world.
Like shooting a gun randomly or robbing a bank lmao.
