The stuff I planted in the spring didn't do to well. But I didn't really put much effort into it. This time I covered it in compost, which is the recommended method. There were a few spots I had done initially on bare dirt(not overseeding) and they did well without competition. Then the city dug it up when they tore the sidewalk out :/ . In general the stuff with existing grass you could see patches that took. The fescue is a darker green so it is identifiable. I'll probably have to wait until spring to see if this works, I'll try to do a 'fescue update' occasionally as the theory of it sounds great. We will see. I think fall is a better time for seeding anyway, as long as the snow holds off for a month. I don't think my seeds in the spring were given enough water and attention.
