Don't feel discouraged. Learning a skill takes time, and put it this way: if you learn PRing, the time you'll save will more than make up for it.
Don't worry about the dictionary game. It's a fun little demonstration, but if it doesn't work, don't go crazy over it. Lots of people have problem with the dictionary game and still do fine with PRing.
The tangerine technique's purpose is twofold:
1) Put you in the accelerated learning state.
2) Open your field of vision.
There may be more reasons, but I see these two as the most important. Just be sure to stay relaxed.
Remember, it's super reading, not speedreading. Just clarifying so that if you post in the future, people won't go crazy on you for it.
When you super read in general, you're just going down the column. If you get a feeling that a word is important all of a sudden and you read around it, you are now "dipping". These words that "attract your attention" are doing so because your subconscious mind is telling you that it is in accord with the purpose you stated (you stated a purpose, right?). You'll eventually fine tune this skill (knowing when to dip) with practice.
Don't give up. Practice makes perfect, and soon you won't be able to recollect how you didn't remember all the steps by heart.
All the best.
