Small being circle size 5 and big circle size 4 (the others being very rarely used in Insane difficulties).

Also please explain why.

Personnally, I enjoy small circles a lot, although I get frustrated at how easily I get misses with these, especially in jumpy maps. But small circles are more enjoyable to me because it makes maps look better (less clustered) and is somewhat challenging (because of the easy misses).

Big circles, the bigger the better (that's what she said).



For example this map: http://osu.ppy.sh/s/40056 (to give one with kind of huge circles which i love), 4 is ok too anyways but i don't really like smaller than that D:

For me it more depends on the AR but I love very small circles since they are way easier for me to hit and I can always see that notes completely and not just a surface where I have to hit somewhere with big circles. With small circles (although it sounds ridiculous) I have more control rather than with big circles, that becomes even more noticeable with very high AR.

Lols Im sort of in the middle, both small and big circles are good for me, though your i LOVE YOU map is the smallest I can comfortably take

Big. I think it's rather obligatory. There's a easy mod that makes them bigger and hard rock which makes them smaller so I think that's pretty much the consensus by both players and the programmers themselves.

I throw the Beatmap away if it has a Size of 5. :x
EDIT: Because it makes nodaway fun to play them. IMO

Voted neither, because it really depends on the song (for me). Usually I prefer CS5 if the song is slow (doesn't mean it has low bpm) and it makes it more fun that way, but in general for "mainstream" songs and maps, and most of the technical maps (like advanced rhythms and stuff) I prefer CS4.
CS3 should just stop existing and CS6 can go die. D:

Big circles (or ratherly normal) are preferable for me :|

Neither, because the question ignores way too many variables to let me vote.
Circle Size should fit the mapping, so as long as it does that I'm fine with whatever circle size.
I've seen so many maps using 4 when 5 was better that i should say that I've really had enough of playing with circle size 4, though.

Circle Size 6 has so much potential, yet it's being ignored completely nowadays, that's very sad.

Big circles. Probably because I raged too much playing Shotgun Symphony+ and now I have a trauma of small circles.

I suppose, but I don't like it. The question was about me preferring such circle size or not, ofcourse 6 can fit somewhere but I still don't like it. :)

Between 5 and 4, I would choose 4. Mostly because I play 1024x768 and sometimes 800x600.
