I dont know much about different types, since I have yet to WILD successfully, but as a newbie to them, I can tell you that I haven't actually read these facts put in such a way before, and didn't even realise it took so long to do! No wonder I failed so much, I usually assumed it wasnt working after the first serveral minutes! Thankyou for this
WILDs ultimately vary from person to person. For me, as hypnagogic imagery begins, I focus on relaxation, but in turn the imagery gets more intense. At some point the imagery stops and a dream suddenly starts. Takes me no more than 5 or so minutes after I lay down.

Just keep trying and find your technique.
