If I had performed the VOR approach accurately both times and still could
not get the airport in sight, that would be enough for me and I would have
been gone to another airport. I wouldn't have attempted a third.

Heck, if you have enough fuel, you could fly the VOR approach all day if
you wanted, but in reality, once you start flying for purpose instead of
practice, flying several approaches to the same airport is wishful
thinking... the type that has led to low fuel emergencies and fuel
exhaustion accidents.
