i.e.
GROUND TERMINAL-BUTTON-BUTTON-BUTTON-GROUND TERMINAL
instead of just
GROUND TERMINAL-BUTTON-BUTTON-BUTTON

bad + unneccessary = why waste wire?

There is somewhere a thread about all this.
Good thing of the circular is: As long as there is only one cable/connection broken in your daisy-chain everything still works.
Bad thing: Has been discussed here. If this would be nf/audio-technique there is a big no no no for two ground connections chained together, also electronically speaking it isn't very elegant to do it this way. As you are only handling switches, no problems should occure though.
Myself will not make it the circular way - I'm an electronic person and I want to know if I crimped one of the cables badly! :)
