Has he tried that spell after he left Megatokyo? Because using the song that opens the portal to MT, while in MT, logically wouldn't do anything.

One
of the most recent Otherearth snippets actually makes me wonder, doesn't
Doug know anyone with dimension travel powers? Theoretically, all he
needs is to find a simulacrum creation song based upon someone with
those powers, and he'll be able to dimension hop for a few minutes every
