I guess I'd have to say option four. I tie option two, modding and mapping, into skinning quite often, so two is a close second. Pretty much every map I make I look to skin or SB or something visually, and take on graphical work per request often enough. I only play enough to hold my rank really.

I'm a player, but I want to start to mod some map, I like help people :3
Bye
Bye
So I chose third category. I mainly play the game, but i like to help people with beatmaps, hang around editor etc. also i like to chat. On #osu there are a lot of cool people. And that makes osu! so awesome 
also i like to chat. On #osu there are a lot of cool people. And that makes osu! so awesome i'd be in the 3rd group..mapper and player..even thou i still suck compared to most people. practise makes perfect thou
i guess im a little of everything except skinner/coder. i mod/map every now and then, i play ofcourse. i love creating and hosting events like tournaments for example, then again it's a little difficult to come up with different ideas for events ^^
I'm between option 2 and 3... but i ll go for 3, cuz i still play maps that i like, mostly in multiplayer.
I'm a mapper/modder. I only play to test and mod maps.
'Cause I suck at playing insane maps
I really can't decide between playing and mapping.. do both about the same.
but I can be a tester too XD...
When I first joined, my only interest was mapping (didn't even knew about modding yet). The result was "Party Night" OH GOD
I started playing osu! later and I eventually became more skilled at it, and I still have interest for modding and mapping so I guess I fit for option 3.

At the beginning I was good at playing maps, and created a few records before I decided to quit playing and become a fulltime mapper. I rarely played since July, so I suck at playing osu now
I'd say I can't really decide between both.
I used to be a beat clicker, haven't been doing so much lately with these new set of good players, so I tend to map/mod more. But when I'm tired with mapping, I sometimes play for fun :)

3rd option for me too, I don't play alot lately though ;(
I'm a mapper and sort of a modder. I do just have osu! open for irc a lot though.
I am here for the community but I do love the gaming!!

Right now, I would say the second... hardly play anymore, and don't really do much else.
Mapping and modding. I had some more interest in playing a year ago or so, but now I have way more fun mapping =P

For this and future reference for these polls; can our individual votes be seen by anyone? And if so whom? I mean I know we can see total votes on A and B, but could you see that I, Pokebis, voted A and say, awp, voted B?
I'm a mapper/player, but actually there are different ways of playing maps imo. If playing means playing for score, I'm just a mapper who plays some few maps.
I used to play a LOT multiplayer, but I'm a bit short of time now :<

Pretty much player-only these days. I play both single and multiplayer (mostly tag coop).
There was a time when I dabbled in mapping, but the process of getting it perfected and ranked kind of turned me off from ever attempting it again. Any maps I make these days lie unfinished on my hard drive. I might submit another map someday, we'll see.

I play for fun. Screw rank, for the most part.
I have a few projects like "fuck - you" and osq2osb which are SB-related. Sometimes when I look at #mod someone is in need of a storyboard, so I help them with that.
I'm on the support team. Woo!
I playtest maps for people if they ask. I think playtesting (with the mapper spectating) with a few comments afterwards is the most effective form of modding.
The community is great and I ... support it quite a bit, if you can call it that. =]
Distributions? 35% playing, 30% community, 20% storyboarding/coding, 10% support, 5% modding.

I'm pretty much on IRC the whole time; I only play the latest ranked maps and even then most of those are really boring so I'd say the last option since all I do is sit in chat and talk.
Well, if the stupidity level of the chat isn't too high.

I'm a demon without computer access for one more week! At that point a new hard drive will indeed arrive. Hazaa
Seeing as I am a BAT with little spare time in osu!, I am naturally a map/modder... more of strictly a modder though. XD XD
I map occasionally but still play. Not really a community person.

I was hoping there would be one like "Plays a lot, maps sometimes", cause that would be me
I'm a beat clicker, but sometimes (once every 3 months or so) I try to make a map just to see if it turns out good. But the maps always end up graveyarded because I get bored after making one difficulty, and they're not that good either. So I chose the first option because I do it the most.
For sure, I'm a mapper, sometimes playing, but mapping most of the time.
Modding? not a lot. but modding.

A beat-clicker only for now.
I think I will constant be a beat-clicker =D

I figure since I have a lot of questions I'd like to ask, rather than waiting a week to add the next poll, I will roll over when the poll hits 500 votes, or a week (whichever comes first). Not sure if we'll hit 500 that fast this time, but hopefully it'll catch on. If you have any friends which haven't yet voted, please get them to .
.well... to be honest, i'm just a beat-clicker
but i want to create my own beatmap... my 1st beatmap... but i feel that to create a beatmap is very very hard and you need to be very patient for a modder, and later a BAT to bubble it, and later another BAT to ranked it...
or only i'm not good in editor :p i found it kinda complicated
i have more than the year in osu and i swear to have at less one beatmap ranked xD

I voted 3.
A few months ago I started mapping and I'm really "addicted" to it (now I have 3 ranked maps so I think I'm doing it right ), so now i'm addicted to everything in this game! D:

option 3, but i like more playing than mapping ^^
I'm sure to appear in solo ranking and mp rooms for taiko mode.
However if I have some spare time I would like to map something...
though, it was somehow poor....

On a related note the options themselves are rather uncompromising:
Sideconditions like "I'm a beat-clicker. No interest in making maps" create a specific tendency and leaves out subtle cases like "created a beatmap but is primarily a player".
That would probably confuse voters.

^pages of replies and oh so many votes suggest otherwise
I choose option no.3
Because I usually modding/mapper and playing.....

I'm surprised Option 1 and Option 3 are the same.
Aren't there more players than map makers?
Edit: Oh wait. Most don't go to the forums...

Exactly. A lot of players don't visit the forums, but for map makers it's an absolute must.NoHItter wrote:

I think it's pretty rare for anyone to fit into one category exclusively.
I mainly map, I don't mod a whole lot, and I play enough.

Once in a while I try to map, but I fail at such a thing. In the end, I just play.
I guess I only play...
I can't map if my life depended on it, and I'm sure that I'm not here for the community.

No. 3!
I do like playing, mapping, and modding!

I like mapping, but most of the time I am playing, and very seldom modding.

I would have answered all of the above, but in order of highest to lowest.
1. I play this game a *lot*.
2. I am here for the community, chatting in the forum and on the irc.
3. I want to be a mapper, really I do. Maybe one day I'll learn to map properly.

2 years later, necrobump...
my old laptop broke so i don't play as much osu! and I only get to play it 3 times a week when I get to go to my grandparents house. There are laptops and computers at my school and you can play osu! on them but if a teacher finds you playing games on a computer your school email will get termintated (harsh right?). What I do now is go onto the osu forums whenever I can at school and tha's pretty much it. I love the forums so I just hang around here most of the time.
4 years necrobump.
