Dread game can be used at any time, but is usually reserved when trouble comes around. It keeps a woman on her toes, lets her know you're desired, and ups your SMV.
Usually when a guy sees danger coming (like she's bringing up a guy's name a lot) he will employ dread game.
Idk if its necessary in this instance. You may just want to take a day and not respond to her texts. Skip a day, then respond to the next one the following day and act like nothing happened.
If you do do dread game, make it subtle. The next time she comes over have a plate of cookies on the counter for her to see. Has the plate wrapped in plastic and a post it note with a smiley face on it. Make sure it's plain to see. When she asks where it came from just say, "IDK it was sitting on my desk at work when I came back from lunch today." Then leave the room to change, take a shit, or check the mail. Let her think about it for a minute or two alone while you walk out of the room.
Use the example however it will work best for you. If you don't have a desk job say someone left it in your front seat of the car, or on your front porch. If there's a place you go that a lot of females congregate, make the story about that place. Be sure to leave it out for her to see but in an innocuous place. Then immediately leave her alone for 5 mins. Let her emotions and hamster run wild with the thoughts of another woman baking having a crush on you and trying to win you over with anonymous cookies. When u come back in the room do not mention it, and answer questions with IDK, then change the subject. It will drive her mad and make her desire you.

To be honest if a girl flakes on me I usually just don't respond; I'll leave it a few days or so before talking to her again.

What people don't fully get is that Dread Game is not limited to straight up rubbing your girl's face in your options and your potential to walk away. It can be subtler and come through in the simple way you do normal behaviors - for instance, just withdrawing your attention some if your girl is nagging is a very mild form of dread game that usually fixes the situation right up.
GF is being overly clingy and I want to discourage that behavior, what do I do? When she is cool, I praise that with attention, sex, my full undistracted presence. When she is clingy or needy or bad, I just withdraw some, focus on something else, and ride out whatever happens until she has become back to being herself - at which point, I'll tell her we're going to do something together.
Attention (which is very related to your validation) is the best thing to use as your dread weapon. You can wield the infidelity nuke and basically get your GF to stop whatever negative act pattern she's doing by hanging out with another hot girl or going to the gym with a female workout partner or even straight up fucking someone else. But if you do that all the time it either loses its punch because you do it for everything and the last 10 times you left to "see a female friend" you didn't cheat, so the dread is empty. Or it works too well, essentially terrorizing her with these dread nukes and making her feel like a female cuckold - not desirable either because while it may force her submission, it makes her crazy, hyperemotional, and prone to these volatile swings.
Which is why I like to use dread game as simply "my attention is off of you, I'm more satisfied doing X than I would be with you because of how you've been lately." This is enough. You do not need to bring other chicks into the picture - don't use dread nukes every week just because you get a great BJ out of it. When you need it most, you will have already used it too much.
When your plate/SO is being irritating, you need to ask yourself - ARE YOU IRRITATED BECAUSE YOU ARE BEING A BETA? Most of the time when typical female behavior like shit tests (which all women do) and emotional hamstering over logical self-evaluation occurs, you will find yourself annoyed, but why? That is why you are with her, it's part of the feminine. You want to very feminine women, you need to be able to deal with her female shit without resorting to "I'm going out. Bye. Don't wait up."
If she is actually being irritating or bitchy or doing something that cannot be solved with positive leadership, that is when you use dread game to condition her against that action. You do not need to take it overboard, you just need to build up the mental association in her mind between the act she was doing and the negative feeling of your validation whooshing away.
Lastly, dread game should be real. BE willing to walk away and willing to fuck your other plate at the drop of a hat, and you will never actually have to, because she can feel how easily you could walk away. Don't front like you have a 3-4 booty calls on your phone lined up if you don't, go get them and then do relationships - when you have truly realized a RP life where you have abundance, you have the Dread Aura effortlessly; she can feel how easy it would be for you to cheat or upgrade her, so you don't have to flex your nuts.
