Keeping the strategies straight

Personally, I can keep a maximum of three games worth of strategies
memorized, and I will try to keep the three most prevalent games fresh in my mind. For
instance, here in the Detroit area, the best quarter games are PickEm and 9/7
DB. The latter can be found on a progressive meter, which makes things
interesting with the nuances of strategy change as the meter climbs.

Don't try to frequently bounce back and forth between one game and another.
It takes a little bit for most folks to completely "shift gears" between one
strategy and another (I believe even Mr. Dancer and Ms. Scott have admitted to
that one).

Being fairly new to VP, I was wondering just how many of the various
Vp games do you try to play and achieve perfect strategies on? There
are so many different games and all with different strategies to
learn. I started with JB, then DDB, and am now studying DW (which
seems to be the easiest). However, doesn't it get confusing trying to
keep it all straight with all the games and correct plays? With just
those three, I find it confusing when jumping from one game to
another. When playing for real, I always worry if I am mixing up
strategies among games and it slows my play. Do most of you good VP
players have just a favorite game or two ? Or excellent memory ?

Thanks
