Rouletting is a game created to expand on "tunneling". In the beggining of the round follow the person to your lefts wall on the outside. Make sure you leave enough room to go back inbetween the two walls. Keep following the walls around the arena until you get close to the outer rim. Once you get near the outer rim, double back into the tunnel you and the player you followed created.
