Hi...I just finally implemented a new RC taken from the Matrix movie. That is to touch the area behind between the head and neck and feel for the metal jack just like in the movie. I did it in two dreams, but it felt like it was there but not there...anyway I became lucid in the first dream. The second dream I did it but nope...no jack...so no lucidity :( . I'm not very experienced with RCs so I was wondering if they needed a burn in period before they work properly.

It's very simple: If you expect to feel something, you will. If you expect you won't feel anything, then you won't.
And remember that if you suspect it's a dream, even for a second, THEN IT'S DEFINITELY A DREAM!
I know it's hard, but that rule is really the only rule you need. Whenever you perform an RC, ask yourself: "Could this be a dream?" If the answer is: "No, I know what I did all day up until this moment. I know what I did yesterday and the day before that. Nothing too unusual has happened." then you're awake. In all other cases, you are dreaming.
I remember myself getting up this morning. I remember myself going to work yesterday. In my dreams, I don't remember what I did earlier that day, each dream is an isolated period of time. So I usually ask myself if I can remember what happened earlier. If I can, then I'm awake.
If we could all just get used to asking ourselves if we could be dreaming whenever something weird happens, then all our dreams would be lucid. Unfortunately, as you know, just asking that simple question whenever something unusual happens can be pretty hard. :(
