Another poll.
No explanations needed, IMO. All you have to do is to pick what kind of JCS-ing you think you're better at. Y'know, multiplayer or singleplayer... Or maybe both?
I've listed the test gamemode in it as well, since, even though it's hosted as MP, it's not really a must to play it with someone, and it really isn't like the SP campain levels. Voting 'test' means that you find yourself to be good at making fun and/or challenging tests.
Or maybe you don't use JCS at all... Or you maybe just suck at both MP and SP... and at tests.

I guess it's weird for me to say both single player and multiplayer, when I haven't even finished making a single SP level. But I think I have a decent idea of what makes one good. I intend for my next upload to be one.

In general, I'm pretty good at making singleplayer levels, although I've never released any I've made in JJ2. One thing that I think gave me a boost in confidence was when I made 30 levels for a Ludum Dare game I made with my brother.
As for multiplayer... I don't even really play many multiplayer games other than Smash Bros., so I don't really get the mentality enough in most games to make levels for them.

I voted for MP given that I've not released any SP in nearly 10 years, although I do intend to release SP one day.

Well, I do make some random levels just for fun and never release those either. I just play the levels made by others.

Even though I technically haven't used JCS for 6 months now because I don't have a PC, I still voted the 'I like using it' option because I hope I'll get back to JJ2 someday. Hell, I even play around with WebJCS.

I voted both SP and MP, but don't consider myself exceptionally good at either of them. I just like JCSing from time to time and don't really care what the majority likes. I just make what I personally enjoy to play while trying out different stuff, and release it if I consider at least someone may like it.
Nowadays I tend to spew out at least 1 level every year, maybe. :p

I found JCS to be a huge stress-reliever. Work and all the other adult-stuff (which is still kind of fresh for a young guy as myself) can sometimes leave me in a very unpleasant and stressful vibe. That's when it is really refreshing to play around with JCS a bit, while listening to some relaxing Native American flute music :D
So far I've made some small single player levels for my personal enjoyment only. Never really had the time to dedicate some quality time into any of my JCS work nor into my JCS skills, but hey - the fun is what really counts!
I also found myself to be very picky with the tilesets Almost any tileset I choose to use doesn't feel complete, there is something missing and I end up editing the tileset before I'm able to build any reasonable level with it.
