Hmm, I guess it could really screw with you depending on the memory method being used.
I think noises are much less of a distraction to BLD than people talking in the background. I can BLD in a noisy environment as long as I don't hear any clear conversation. It's really hard to focus when you hear a couple of people talking in the background when you're BLD-ing, because you're automatically distracted about what they are saying.
Just practice in a bus or train and you'll get used to that.

Or you can do BLD races with drunk Chester while Andrew Kang is watching - that may be the best distraction training of all.
And I would never practise in bus or train (especially BLD), it's just too geeky
No need to. Just solve the corners of a 3x3 BLD.Would you say that 2BLD is a good way to practice memo and execution for 3BLD (Old pochmann). It's just becuase I have trouble memorising the longer streams needed for 3BLD but I think I would be OK with just corners. What do you think?
Also Rob, I've definitely switched over to your method for memorizing PBD corners when using images. I agree that it makes much more sense than my old way. Not sure if you're also doing this, but if I have only one PBD piece then I only memorize the sticker for that single piece. If, when solving, I come to a flipped pieces image that is a single letter image, I know that the buffer flips the opposite direction.
Video games can provide some routes. I use the prison cell and escape route from Oblivion as my 15th route (but it's kinda fuzzy because I haven't played in years)
Not exactly real places but not completely made up by you.
I don't know if I should be excited or scared, as now I have a fully complete method to doing multiBLD. I may have to stop being lazy and actually give it a shot now.
