No, only the last set of polys mapped would still be selected.

Yes, that is required. Otherwise you're re-mapping polys up to four times! Look again at the screenshots in the tutorial and pay attention to the Perspective viewport: for each side, only that side's polys are selected (red colour).

I have often regretted that screenshot: having mapped all five sides, just apply Edit Mesh>Unwrap UVW and then Edit. I was trying to show how simply applying an Unwrap would not show the mappings of the entire object.



For screenshots I usually use an image hosting site and paste a direct link to the picture required into the post. If you don't let SOH store your pictures locally they get shown at or near full size.
