 uploaded on 6/20/23, found while digging through old stuff Shade some squares to create an empty crossword grid. Hashtags are shown where clue numbers should go. All hashtags are given. The unshaded squares are all connected.

For one, it may allude to John 3:16, which is considered to be one of the most important passages in the Bible. For the server this was posted in, 316 is a reference to something else. :)

 made on 6/18/23 https://tinyurl.com/2xqdhnk7 When the puzzle is finished, a 9-letter word will read from top-left to bottom-right along the major diagonal.

 made on 6/15/23 This puzzle was inspired in part by a puzzle in the Alan Turing Codebreaker's Puzzle Book. The answer is an 11-letter word found on a note clued by the paragraphs.

 made on 6/13/23 Based on a puzzle type by Jawa Place numbers into the grid such that every number reveals the amount of numbers it's next to (minesweeper-style). There must be two numbers in every row and column.

 made on 6/6/23, after incorrectly guessing the meaning of a custom symbol Every dart must be passed over by a line and point from a region of greater area to a region of less area.

 made on 6/4/23 Find a solution which solves this as both a nonogram and a minesweeper. The ? numbers must be the same for both puzzles. (The topleft corner cannot be shaded, and clues cannot be 0, both from the conventions of nonograms.) This puzzle also works if a 2 is given instead of a 1. Also, this is provably the largest grid size for which this puzzle works if every row and column is clued.

 made on 5/31/23 This puzzle type was invented by Jawa. Every square is either shaded (French) or unshaded (not French). Numbers reveal the amount of cells surrounding it (minesweeper style) that have the same shading. (For uniqueness, the bottom-right corner is not French.) https://tinyurl.com/mrx8f9v4

 made on 5/11/23 This puzzle type was invented by thejonymyster. Shade some cells such that all shaded and unshaded regions have four cells each. Unshaded regions can be separated from each other by internal borders, but shaded regions cannot. Circles are between a shaded cell and an unshaded cell.

 made on 5/10/23 These all follow the same theme: ._.. (6) VDODG GUHVVLQJ (6 5 8) standoffish (second paper with two word-sized holes, first small second big) (7 4) AAAAB ABAAA BAABA BAAAB (5 4)

 made between 4/19/23 and 4/27/23 Each zero starts a number path, which will be defined as a sequence of consecutively increasing whole numbers where each pair of consecutive numbers in the path is orthogonally adjacent in the grid (meandering numbers). Paths cannot branch, cross, or overlap other numbers and symbols. Every symbol must be part of at least one valid equation. Equations can read right or down and must start and stop at either an empty space or the grid edge. = cannot be part of any incorrect equation, but unfinished equations (which don't have a number immediately on one side) are allowed. Every path must end within an equation.

 made on 4/17/23 After solving the base puzzle, here are a couple hints for the meta: Orange squares contain clues Green squares are unshaded

 uploaded on 3/22/23, but made back on Thanksgiving Day 2022 Draw lines to divide the letters into regions. Lines can be horizontal, vertical, or 45 degree diagonal, but must be gridpoint-aligned and travel all the way across the board. Every line must border at least one lettered region. R must be rectangular (not square), S must be square, and T must be in a right triangle. two 9x9: https://tinyurl.com/2mdh5gk5  two 7x7: https://tinyurl.com/2mtsm6nw (Edit: today is 10/21/23, and I've just noticed the first example is non-unique.

 made on 3/18/23 https://puzz.link/p?lookair/v:/8/8/g2a4c2a1t1k1a2c2a2g Variant: instead of squares of any size, shaded regions must either have an area of 1 or 2. Dominoes of different rotations still may not see each other.

 made on 3/3/23 This type was invented by Tenex. Add letters to the board from the rack such that the grid forms valid Scrabble words. (The original puzzles had more potential special restrictions, but I wanted to try making a puzzle without them.)

 made on 2/28/23 https://puzz.link/p?wafusuma/6/6/n77p66n6gai4v.i3g3 The puzzle is still unique if either of the connected sixes are blank.

 made on 2/25/23 This type was invented by thejonymyster. Shade cells in the grid such that: 1. no shaded cell is orthogonally adjacent to more than one other shaded cell 2. all unshaded cells are orthogonally connected 3. there are no 2x2 unshaded regions The original puzzle counted shaded squares; this variant counts the amount of blocks that each number can see, where a block is defined as an orthogonally connected area of shaded squares.

 made on 2/24/23 This type was introduced by Jacob Z. Place words into the grid following the clues. Words must read left-to-right as though in a crossword but can start anywhere, allowing them to overlap.

(the two L's are separated by this same distance, as well as the two N's.) the fourth A is twice as far from the third. - there are three P's, two of which are consecutive. - there are two Y's, both at the ends of words. - the name of one of Jupiter's major moons appears intact within one of the words.

 made on 1/22/23 This puzzle type was invented by thejonymyster. Every region has one letter in it but that letter can be repeated as many times as you would like within the region. Two regions with the same letter in them may not touch. Among regions with the same letter, a region with n copies of that letter has n times as many cells in it as the region with one copy of that letter. There must be at least one region for each letter in which that letter only appears once.

Around this time, the channel had been experimenting with puzzles where words are mapped to numbers based on some characteristic. Many required additional guesses but I tried to structure mine to be solvable without extra guesses. Despite puzzles being sent in between, I decided to group them here. 330.

 uploaded on 12/10/22, but made a few years back. The goal is to reduce the starting word to a three-letter word. On each step, you can either remove the last letter or change the second-last letter, forming valid English words along the way (no proper nouns).  For example, "task" can be solved with "tank" then "tan."  These are grouped by solving theme and rough difficulty: pasta wish / spire minus / pills hearse / nexus dairy / one of the 50 states

 made on 12/8/22 This variant was introduced to me by Jawa. T counts the total number of shaded squares. G counts the total number of runs.

 uploaded on 11/26/22 Technically I didn't make this one; it's just a picture of the front cover, but I can verify that this puzzle is somewhat feasible to solve. As a necessary hint, the black squares are always rotationally symmetric.

 made on Thanksgiving Day 2022 Draw lines either along a counting number radius (1,2...) or along the provided diameters to cut the pie. Numbers provide the area of a slice in terms of the area of the smallest possible slice. The first is solved as an example.

 made on 11/23/22 This puzzle type was invented by thejonymyster. * draw edges to create regions which are paths that contain exactly one "bend". * clues may not reside in the "bend" of a region. * a horizontal clue must not share a region with a cell directly orthogonally vertical to it * a vertical clue must not share a region with a cell directly orthogonally horizontal to it Variant idea: Diagonal lines. The first puzzle is already solved as an example.

 made on 11/23/22, inspired by a funny theme https://tinyurl.com/2q8rjoeg Rules, tutorials, and other information can be found at #150-153. While re-solving #150 before making this one, I managed to make the same mistake in solving as three other people.

 made on 11/15/22 and 11/16/22 This was inspired by an idea for a paper puzzle game where separate rules and inputs could synergize to make complex puzzles.
