I know that Oreo uses a dream-feeling RC and seems to be very effective for him.
I personally use gravity RC, which is centered on the idea of knowing two versions of gravity, one which is normal and one that is not. Normal = awake and abnormal = asleep, so by making it an habit you instinctively know when it is normal/abnormal (awake/asleep) and become lucid from this feeling. Obviously for this to work, the RC has to be done at all times, which is the most difficult part. After a while the concious practice is no longer needed, as the feeling will stay there as second nature.

Also, these RCs need to be done in a way that does not need you to do anything out of the common for your waking life. Basically, they stay in the background permanently regardless of what you are doing. Example, I check the weight of my fingers while typing right now, don't need to actually stop and then focus for it to work.

Thats how I do it, at least.
Wow, that would indeed be difficult; even if it is just focused on one thing. I actually tried to do something like this once (not one of my best efforts though ):

What I did was try to pay constant attention to transitions, as in dreams they’re usually very changeable and often you would go from one location to another with apparently no transition in between. So I thought by focusing intensely on everywhere I went, I would notice such an inconsistency in a dream. After a while of doing this, I just gave up on it and went back to doing regular reality checks. My issue with this kind of approach was that it was so monotonous and mentally exhausting, and apart from the fact that I thought it would take a monumental length of time before I began to see results with it, my concern about 100% lucidity also came into play. So in the end I just decided it wasn’t favorable…

I also felt like I was blocking out some important questions which may have been lingering as I paid attention to the transitions, like “does this room look as I remember it?”, “what was I doing in the last while?” I thought I could’ve spent the time asking questions which covered all aspects of my reality. So I decided to just take this approach, but unlike the gravity, transition RC’s etc. these questions quickly draw conclusions and it’s difficult to know how to continue to ‘ask’ them throughout the day with unbroken attention.

Also, I find it impressive that you were able to make the gravity RC work. It must have taken a lot of effort!
