[QUOTE="Woas, post: 2283533, member: 16317"] As a DM, I let the players map it themselves. If nobody does and I'm feeling kind of nice, I might draw a little rough sketch. As a player, I always use the circle and line style maps. They are really generic. Basically any "room" the group enters is marked on the map as a little half-inch circle. Any "hallway" is just a line that usually connects with another circle (room). All the circles and lines are the same size roughly, whether the room was 10x10ft or 1000000x1000000ft. If there is something significant to know about the room, like say a stair case up or down, trap doors we missed, dead bodies we need to pick up later, whatever, then I just number the room and write a little note on the side reminding me. With my usual group of games, if I DM one of the other guys will use this mehtod anyway so that is why I mentioned I usually let the players handle their own maps, since that's what I'm used to.
