Are you a Doom player, mapper or programmer?

OK so now we have 54 Mod/WAD makers and 25 regular players. Not enough regular players - who plays all these maps?

You make it sound like there are 79 Doomers left in the world. There are a couple thousand more people out there.

More than that. Doomers are not rare at all.

Subtract the casual players and 79 (now 81) is probably about right. :)

I'm a mapper/ modder. I play new Wads from time to time, but it's mainly to check out what new and unique things other mappers have created, although it happens that I download a new Wad just to play

My profession is programming, but in Doom I am strictly a speedrunner. I'm addicted to competitive, pedantic dooming, and I never play the game regularly -- only non-casual playing gives me fun and moral satisfaction.

Author/Mapper. I like being creative very much, however, I hardly release wads, as most of my maps are in community projects which are still not released. I should shake my body from laziness and do something. The only damn thing that gets in my way is boredom. Only if I know how to remove it.

I'm a player also, how will you get better in mapping without playing?
