Mazing is a game played with one or more players. For a normal(square) maze you create a large square and instead of going outside(turning away from the square or going around it) on the fourth turn you turn inside of the large square you continue spiraling towards the center until you have no more room then you turn back and spiral outside of the square. This game has been tweaked by many players. Some tweaks involve spiraling out at the beggining of the game then going back in and back out once more. Another is on a server with less then infinity walls continuing to spiral in and out until you mess up. Mazing was a predecessor to the roulette style of game play.
 
  
There are several maze designs other than a square that are worth trying. For example: rectangles, boxes with dents(inward and outward) in them, crosses, etc.

What is it?

Mazing is a game played by one or more players. The player(s) create designs with their wall and then enter back into the maze. When the player reaches the end of the maze he turns around and navigates back out. On servers with finite wall lengths a player may make a maze, enter it, and exit it ad infinitum.

Designs

The most basic design you can make to maze is a square. Create a boundary square large enough for you to make revolutions inside. Instead of closing off this boundary square enter it, leaving enough room to exit out. When you reach the center turn around and exit the maze.

More complex designs are more difficult to create and navigate once inside.

Inside Out

Some players create an inside out maze by spiraling out from their spawn position, and then enter into the maze. This maze will only work at the beginning of rounds, or when a hole is created in your wall.
