For years I used to use a combination of folding and rolling, when stowing my 
Eureka Timberline.  By folding in thirds, then rolling with the tent fly (odd 
shaped and not readily foldable) around the pole bag, I used to be able to 
pull the tent out of the stuff sack, hold the loose edge and toss the rest.  
It would unroll neatly with the ground sheet all in place and the fly on the 
top.  The pole bag and stakes would be resting in front of the front door 
after this operation, all ready for the rest of setup.

Now, I'm a confirmed stuffer.
