Cascading ends in casting the card revealed without paying its mana cost. Thus, does playing a spell with cascade as the result of a cascade, cascade again?

Yep, if you cascade into a card that also has cascade, you will cascade again using the new card's CMC. Even though you cast it for free, the card's converted mana cost is still what is printed on the card for the purpose of your cascade.

Such a wacky mechanic.

Then I think this deck can use an infinite reflects... :)

Cascade- the Ultimate Timmy keyword.

It gets really nutty when you play {Maelstrom Wanderer} in a Cascade deck.

So you would cascade into something with cascade with Wanderer, cast it, then cascade using that cards cascade then say u get no cascade. Then u cascade with wanderer again?

nope, you aren't drawimg cards and all revealed cards are randomly put back in the bottom of your library.

Nope. You cascade twice first from Wanderer. Then you cascade any cascades you hit. At least, I think so
This. The new cascades don't trigger until the Wanderer's two finish.

So then the cascade fizzles and I shuffle all the exiled cards into my library?

Cascade + {hypergenesis} = win more

the cascade didn't fizzle it just didn't find anything to cast. your opponent gets to look at all the cards in your library before you shuffle them.

You don't shuffle your deck you place the cards in the bottom of your library in any order. In the case of cascading trough your who deck you can rearrange your whole deck in the order you want. Basically setting up every draw step.
