-try inverting the rearmost polygon
-try unsing the polygon tool to connect between vertices rather than edges, so that you can dictate the direction in which the polygon in created.

That's ok. That's the tool trying to help you out - it's telling you that one of your faces is inverted relative to the others, so choose invert. You should get a nice result. Choosing double edges will result in discontinuous faces - ugly!
