What went well?

First time doing an extra long proof (42 hours!) was worried about over-proofing it, but seemed like I pulled it off.

What didn't?

It is very sour. I think this may be the first time I've been on the verge of a too-sour loaf?

By 48 hour proof you must mean cold retard? But that's why it was so sour!

Beautiful scoring. Would love to see a video of that technique.
