I continued with method D, and lost track of time, so I did it for two weeks instead of one. That would be my second and third weeks of this experiment.
The repeat dreams have continued to unload, having at least 25 in 14 days. Again, more were suspect, but I did not have enough feeling to convict them as repeat offenders. Unlike last time, there was only once lucid dream in this stint, and it was at the very end. I think that had more to do with the fact that I wanted a lucid dream so I could do the lucid task, which I did complete.
Even more strange, throughout the two weeks, seemingly random childhood, and previous dream memories would just pop into my head. It seems it may not have any effect on lucidity, but it may with vividness.
It seems that the majority of my dreams are (R2,V1,L0). I have continous recall, average vividness, but no lucidity. My average dream is really vivid, and I reserve V2 for those dreams only when I am completely engulfed within the sensation of the dream.
As far as my previous hypothesis of overtuning, I think that one might be on track. The dreams seemed so colorful, except pale and muted.
I am also having orgasms within the dream too, without any stimulation. It's like it's built up, and just releases overnight since I won't let it out while conscious.
Conclusion
I am willing to say that this does not have an effect on lucidity, but can help not only dream recall, but recall of memories from either waking life, or other dreams. I believe it does in fact increase energy, which may actually cause the dreams to tune out, losing vividness, since the average dream is quite vivid. On the other hand, it does cause spontaneous orgasms in the middle of the dream.

- Repeat. Living with three other friends in a house, with video games and such up in the kids room. We are a little before teen age, and best of friends. We soon age though and right next to our house is our university campus which we all go to. Then, the devil shows up, and we decide we are brave enough to take him on. One friend got into an elevator waiting to confront him, someone else pulled a bar out and emergency stopped it to open the door so all four of us were in there. Then as we were waiting in there, the devil crashed through the roof of the building, pulled the elevator out, and flung us to a nearby field. Flying I think "Shit! Why did we not get parachutes. I open a hatch, wanting to escape, but don't have the time. I jump off the floor just before we crash and do a break fall.
We all get right up, all uninjured. I thought it was because I did the break fall . I have a wand, and a red inflated balloon, industrial strength. The devil challenges me to get it down our chimney (our house has moved right near the field). I take him on, and I was initially going to levitate, but I thought "Nah, that's cheating, I can do better". I go to the far side of the house, climb the mahogany picket fence, get up to the second balcony, use the swinging door to realize I cannot quite reach the roof. So I put my wand up there, then sit on the inflatable balloon. It has the strength to propel me up a few feet, and then I grab my wand. I go over to the chimney while the devil is floating there, with his hands in blocking. I shove the balloon in, then it flies out and away.
The devil goaltended, and then him and I and the others are inside the house on the first floor. He transforms into a preppy looking person, he looked like Wilmer Valderrama with a sweater vest and glasses. After that, we knew he was defeated and we earned the right to kill him. He was standing in front of stairs that lead down to the basement. At this point, I still see him as the devil. I push him down some of them, to which he responds "I am still alive". Twice more I go to kill him, before realizing he is just a person. Then the dream ends.
- I was in a pool somewhere in some dream this night.
