Running cables in series can get you into trouble. It is cheaper, and maybe quicker. But that doesn't make it better. If you don't know what I mean about running cables in series, it's pretty simple. You run one cable from your demarcation point to a phone jack. From that phone jack you run another cable to another phone jack and so on. My crude little picture here shows you what I mean.
What you should do with all of your cables is do the "home run" method. This is where you run a separate cable from each jack to your demarcation point. Takes a little longer and more cable, but can save you many headaches in the end!
