Hah, not really, but the funniest thing happened tonight (or, rather, early this morning, around 3-4am)...
I hypnotized my girlfriend.
No, you read that right, I hypnotized her. It wasn't really intentional, actually. We started talking about paranormal things like out-of-body experiences, astral projection, psychics, hypnosis, etc., and she told me how she was once with a friend of hers, who claimed that my g/f answered her questions in her sleep. Like my girlfriend (Andrea) was asleep, and her friend would ask her a few questions, and Andrea answered back, all while asleep. I then concluded that she wasn't really asleep, but under a form of hypnosis. As we talked some more, I found my voice droning on, sounding monotonous but smooth. She then appeared to have fallen asleep.
To test her real state, I then asked her what the capital of Massachusetts was, expecting her to say something like "Babe, I'm not asleep right now." Instead, she simply said "Boston". I then got all giddy inside as I realized that I could do . . . things ;)
I then told her, calmly and gently, that she was falling deeper into sleep and could only hear my voice. I told her she was competely relaxed, went from her toes up to her head and made sure she was fully "under". I then gave her a little test, knowing that she would never play along to humor me. I told her I was lifting her hand, and as I did I told her that it was now glued in mid-air and that she could not move it, no matter who pushed it or what she wanted. I let it go, and it stayed positioned in mid-air. I pushed her hand; it pushed back. I had her under! ;D
What I had her do next was kinda R-rated (X-rated in some countries ;) ), but suffice it to say, when she woke up (I did a backwards 5-count to gently bring her out of it), she was surprised to feel some moistness. :P
I had her under hypnosis about 4 times total, for a total of 1-2 hours on and off, just messing around (harmless fun, I assure you). I even got her to flash me whenever I said the phrase "Crazy Horse", which worked great while she was under. When I brought her to, I said the word again, and she flashed me, then suddenly realized what she was doing and said "What the hell? What am I . . . huh?" And I informed her about the keyword. I tried it again and it didn't work this time. Very interesting results, I must say. I gotta find out how these hypnotists get people to do things on command while conscious. :P
So yeah, I had an interesting time tonight and so did she. I made sure that the next 3 times she remembered what she had done once she awoke each time. :D
Don't try this on other random girls in the street, you don't know if your girlfriend was just cheating. :=
Heh, I know she'd never do it just to humor me. Also, my girlfriend is the type that is VERY easily hypnotizable. So it's not really a big deal that I could do it. Basically, she said that my voice soothes her and puts her into that hypnotic state. ;D
I used to fantasize about girls like that in highschool.
Bear this responsibility well.
When I was in college I used to hypnotize my roommate.
We used to have so much fun with this, including recording him saying "I hate Sarah, I wish she were dead (Sarah was his girlfriend)" and walking outside in his underwear in 20 degree weather... At which time we would promptly lock him out.
We figured if it were so easy to hypnotize him in his sleep, we would try for something a little more... exciting. We told him that whenever he saw a squirrell, he would be inclined to chase after it. The next day, while carrying Sarah's books, he inexplicably dropped them and tore off into the distance, screaming obsscenities.
This continued for a while, but he never caught any.
EDIT: shbaz posted while I was saying all that, and now I MUST say this:
With great power comes great responsibility. Bear it well, Peter.
I thought the point of getting a girlfriend was so you didn't HAVE to hypnotise them.
That's the most disgusting thing I've read all day, congratulations :P
I mean, I would've done the same thing, but I wouldn't have told people here. I would've lied and said I made her act like a chicken or something.
Or maybe... that's what you meant anyway. ^_-
No, I think that the most interesting part of the story is that his girlfriend is easily hypnotized. Can you give me her telephone number? :P
Heh, don't worry, I didn't take advantage of her. Honestly, she's very open about a lot of things and she's assured me that there is nothing I could do to her or with her that would offend her.
And I know this bears great responsibility. Trust me, I know, and I assured her that I would never make her do anything embarassing or stupid or harmful. She's the love of my life and I would never do anything to hurt her, in any way.
Nobody with a dancing Hammer avatar could do evil, surely!

But now you're hinting us that we can embarrass or hurt her easily!
Really interesting read there. I'm staying at my girlfriends for the whole of next week, maybe i should take a leap into the ways of hypnotism!
I have a very large collection of books on the supernatural and occult. I know off hand that I have about four different books on mind control that are in E-Format.
BUT YOU CAN'T HAVE THEM!!! I don't want to turn this entire forum full of people into super villains, like Hypno-Robber!
So your girlfriend gets hypnotised (without any procedure or established methods) every time she falls asleep? And during this state you use her sexually?
This is odd.
And furthermore you call this girl your girlfriend? How odd...

In that case I'll call that sleepwalking instead of hypnotizzz-Zing!
And that's it's not Terran having supapowaz, it's his girlfriend. :=
It's a bird! It's a plane!
NO!
It's Somnambulism Girl!
Terran, did the process of putting someone under hypnosis come to you naturally, armed with only the laborious knowledge of having seen one too many hollywood movies where someone counts backwards towards lucidity or something? I don't think you can do something so procedural and controlled by accident.
And if you did, you do realize poking around in someone's head while they're in a very exposed state to put stuff like LOL SUCK MY DICK and LOL FLASH ME WHENEVER I SAY CRAZY HORSE LOL might possibly be well, morally wrong for one, psychologically dangerous for another and lastly just slightly more than a bit creepy?
I mean, I know she's your girlfriend and everything, but you might want to let her hang on to
such choices as to when and why she might want to flash you.
Besides, it could be dangerous. If you took Helm's first suggestion, she might go a little too far. Then, you'll have to change your username to Stumpy.

You know, admitting to what could be construed as rape on a public forum may not be a particularly wise idea :P
I say we kill him.
Oh, come on! Let's open our minds a little.
We have amongst us a guy who can hypnotize anyone (well not anyone, but for the shake of argument...) with a sanp of his fingers. LEt's use it.
We'll send Terran to Vivendi, first of all and he'll hypnotize the whole management. So anytime they hear KQ IX they will bark with joy. Thus 1 problem solved.
Then we'll take him to HSBC and in a metter of minutes we'll have the AGS National Charity Fund. And not only that. It will be full of money.
Furthermore we'll take hime to any creator not finishing their games and hypnotize all of them. Thus in a matter of months we'll have all the games we've been waiting for. The Gift of Aldora. The ledgend of the blue lagoon, A Tale of Two kingdoms, the next ESPER game.
Just wait and you'll see. We must make Terran our friend! Our best friend!
On on whole other issue hypnotizeing might be difficult, but with a little use of phychology you can manipulate pretty easilty most people. I have a very simple example. I have a friend who is a hypochondriac. But in a serious case! She washes her hands at least 20 times a day. Seriously. But it was fairly easy to create a black out to her. I just told her: " Well, do you know that when yoyur hands are dirty you go to wash them. The first thing you do is that you open the tap. Then you put the soap on. And in the end what do you do? You close the tap. Thus all the germs from your hands go back to your hands!"
Well let me tell you that whe ended up using medical alcohol to wash her hands. The one that they have in the hospitals.
I have to admit that was fun. I wish though I could find a way of making her flash anytime I wanted. That would be very nice... :P
QuoteI say we kill him.
Or get her to do it, while in a trance.
Oh, the sweet irony.
Grommfindle....
That is the word in my language which means "At least my next game made SOMEONE's lookout list..." And I haven't even GiPped it yet....
I wanna be Terran. Terran, I demand you let me be you! =)
Just be careful your girlfriend doesn't learn to do it to you! My girlfriend read one book on hypnosis and now I'm married!
I say we should make a meeting between Terran and our beloved friend Ajck Hotmpson.
(Jack Thompson, shhh).
Why? I really have no idea.
Back to the point. It's funny that people don't really talk about the occult, hypnotising and similar stuff, but that is everywhere.
I believe that anyone who's been using the net for a while has a somewhat e-book library with books of that type. Also what i've noticed not all get read and used, no matter how amazing they could be.
My (new) point is that a lot of these hypno, self-hypno books have a lot of self improving material that a lot of people could be using and improve their lives, and with selfimproving i mean self improving in ANY area, be that physical or mental.
what does the occult have to do with hypnosis?
I want to learn this skill! Are there books? Which one is good? Think of the fun me and my brother/girlfriend/friends could have!!! No worry, I wouldn't share this with someone who I don't trust... and I reckon you can't really be hypnotized if you're tense or alarmed in a way. I can't relax among people I don't trust, that way I mean. Oh my God, if this is really possible I could do so much good!!! :D :D :o
Can it truly be learnable?
Whenever I hear or think of hypnotism, I think of the film "Stir of Echos."
The mind is a dangerous thing to mess with. What may be fun for the moment could totally fuck up someones mind for the rest of their life.
Be careful, Terran... Or your girlfriend might find a dead retarded girl in the basement.
mmääähh.. how can she find her retarded if she's dead?
...I think he's making a reference to the movie he just mentioned...
One of my friends back in the day used to be able to hypnotize people. I never really believed it, and since I never allowed it to be done to me, I can't really confirm or deny it really working. What he did was get one of us in a dark room, shine a flashlight in the persons face and just talk all creepy-like.
It appeared to work on multiple people, we made one guy only able to say the word monkey, and other stupid shit like that. Unfortunately, no women were around to take advantage of.....
Really though, I've heard that "proffesional" therapy hypnotists can seriously mess with your brain, implanting ideas with suggestions. Bad stuff man.

what does the occult have to do with hypnosis?
Well Helm, not so long ago in countries pretty near to us people used to put hypnosis in the occult basket. Some people had even put accupuntcure and other "skills" in the same basket, but as we all know it, definitions of something change during time. As people get more accustomed to things they tend to put it in their comfort zone and accept it as an everyday thing. You shouldn't be surprised if after a few dozens of years you see things in our reality as a normal thing whereas today you would associate it to crazy psychists, and socialy uncredible shamans and people alike.
If there is a need to define occult, in my eyes i would define it as something that uses more than average use of the mind, which i think is something we should all be doing and should be researched more professionally.
So the answer to your question would be another question:
What doesn't the occult have to do with hypnosis?
Also, my spelling could be bad in the text so i apologize.
I.
My Psychology teacher said Hypnotism IS real, but it won't work if the person being hypnotized doesn't want to.

Hmm, this might be accomplished if you let him hypnotize you. Just don't be mad when you find the suspect moistness....
Also, Helm rocks this thread.
I think it's about time you gave the money back now, terran...
http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?topic=23082.0
TerranRich,
you do realize you just found a cure for next time she'll had a "headache"? You lucky dog you!
I don't really object to the act, if she really, really was okay with it. You probably know her well enough to know that. It's a little creepy, but if she was fine with it then whatever.
I just don't wanna hear about her `moistness`. That... this forum isn't dirty enough for me to be able to handle hearing about that here.
He quite obviously made her throw water over herself. You all have dirty minds.
He would have used the word wet, then. Moist implies internal wetness, thus we were to assume that this moistness was the cause of some sexual stimulation, and her bodies reaction to said stimulation.
Whether or not this constitutes as rape, is a grey area. I'm sure it's safe to assume, that since this is his girlfriend that she has been a willing participant in some sexual act. However, since she was at the will of Terran under Hynosis, who's to say that she would have wanted anything of that nature. Although, it's argued that anyone under hypnosis will not do anything they are strong opposed to, this is debatable. However, since she's allowed herself to be hypnotized more than once, I think it's safe to assume that in this scenario it isn't rape. I think it's a little strange to try and stimulate an essentially non-responsive person, but sometimes I do like to play hard to get with myself.
It's kind of cool that you're able to hypnotize someone. I remember as a kid my friends tried to hypnotize me, so I played along. And had them fooled for a good half-an-hour. As I've never actually been witness to hypnosis, I don't really know how much of it I believe. I think much of what you see on tv/movies is over-exaggerated, but I could be wrong.

If you're not wet internally, you died!
We all know what he meant ^_- He's a dirty boy.
As I agree that some details in the initial post were rather...not fitting in a public forum like this (rather tasteless in fact), I'll spare the thread further debating in the area.
Hm, not really.
Let me just propose the idea that in order to achieve the state in which Terran's girlfriend found herself when she woke up, mustn't there have been some concious pleasure involved?
I might be of the naïve conviction that those women who've had the bravery to spend a night between my sheets have indeed enjoyed it, as I've assumed that moisture - at least to any noticable degree - won't occur from merely a mechanical, unconcious act.
This thesis will either prove that Terran's allegedly hypnotised girlfriend was much more awake then he'd like us to think, or that my knowledge of women is more confined than I'd like to think.
From sundry discussions I've had on the subject, that specific state can result from a variety of things. Occasionally, high- progesterone levels can result in a semi-accidental state of dampness. Likewise, fluctuations in the menses cycle can cause apparently random discharge, particularly during the adolescent cycle (similar to male adolescents particular embarassing public arousals). There are also times that physical manipulation of a certain nerve-cluster housing by inanimate objects (such as a crease of denim) has had that effect. Women are rather unique in that they can have pre-climax and climax due to emotional or verbal stimuli, whereas most men require more manipulation of said naughty bits.
Edit: editing to express my amusement at the thread title following this one - "Suggestion - Release Something!"
I don't really have any professional knowledge in a related area, but I very much doubt that this can actually happen in the way Terran describes. Sounds like a fish story of some kind to me. Or perhaps a greatly successful practical joke from Andrea.
I wouldn't be surprised if a girl didn't mind some "experimentation" like this in the privacy of their own place, but was really pissed off by the guy then boasting about it to his mates on the internet...
I think Rich should be more careful about this: even if she is fine about it now, if she changes her mind later at any point then he's putting himself at risk. If I were him I'd ask a moderator to delet the whole thread ASAP. But then, I'd never have done that in the first place...
Of course, it could be a pile of rubbish from either Terran or his g/f as Eldkatt says. If the former, then its in very poor taste. If the latter then zing! pwned Terran. Either way, it makes Rich look pretty bad.
QuoteMy mum used to describe the weather as "A bit moist". Either she is secretly an erotic fiction writer instead of a Deaconess, or Mills is speaking sloblock
While a valid argument. I was relating the word moist with the usage of Terran's girlfriend. I can only assume that combining the two words in one sentence implies a sexual stimuli of some sort. And the word moist doesn't necessarily have to be dirty. A cake can be moist. The weather can be moist...and arguably, my definition of internal water isn't wiped away, as the weather has water internally. While I may sill be speaking sloblock, I don't think the word moist is a dirty word in all situations.

Terran hasn't shown any signs of activity in this thread again, let alone regret over having shared something to an internet community that belongs to his bedroom.
Even though this anecdote probably has struck awe in some of the less mature members of this community, I second SSH's suggestion to have the thread removed. Let us know what you decide.
I second SSH, but maybe we shuld wait for Terran to tell us? Or maybe e-mail him?
Or we could just leave it here and let it die. Someone should get a "Don't feed the thread!" sign.
Or let's delete the starting post he made and continue with the very subject of hypnotizing because I for one am most interested and eager to hear more :D

I guess Terran's girlfriend just read this thread, slapped him and locked him in the basement.
He's busy recording things for his new pay website....

No sweat.
It's ok that we have different opinions, i was just in the mood for writing back then.
Is it possible to hypnotise yourself?
Yes, there's a thing called self-hypnosis.

Why, do you want to wake up "moist"? ;)
I was reffering to mostly self-hypnosis when i was talking about self-improvement.
So yeah, that's cool.

Is it possible to hypnotise yourself?
I do this regularly when I have trouble sleeping or when I won't have long to sleep (because it makes for a deep sleep).
Basically you walk yourself through the steps of hypnosis, relaxing everything and then relaxing it again until you feel like you're sinking into an infinite abyss. Then it's like a dreamworld.. you can walk your mind through all kinds of outrageous scenarios (dreams) and some people claim out of body experiences. I rarely remember my dreams but I very very rarely remember my dreams after hypnotizing myself.
Today I hypnotized myself when playing "Captain Muchly Drinks Bleach". I closed all the programs on my computer, got up, stretched out, and suddenly I lost control of my body and my eyes shut. Only one thought stuck in my mind, get to you're bed and lay down, which is what I thought just before getting up. I walked without controlling myself, and collapsed on the floor. It was really weird...
You didn't hypnotise yourself, Captain Muchly Drinks Bleach did.
Everybody knows it takes a strong psyche to play that game.
I started it up and suffered heavy nausea.
The weird thing is....Terranrich hasen't posted since the 23rd....
My theory is that by hypnotising her, he opened up the primal, animal killer instincts in his girlfriend, and died an ironic death.....
Oh yeah, I totally think thats what happened...
