Puzzle 617: Totally Awesum 25
I was recently commissioned to write some logic puzzles, mostly Kakuro, for someone's project (not related to Kakuro Conquest, by the way). What is this project, and why do I have this puzzle left over from it? I hope my client gives me the go-ahead to say a little more than that. . . :)

Puzzle 612: Totally Awesum 23
A while back, I was commissioned to write puzzles for Kakuro Conquest, thanks to my impressive haggling skills and talking the other person up from "hey, promote this site". I even promoted them in a volume of Grant's Review Corner, praising their solving interface for its simplicity. As much as I would love to see my puzzles playable in said interface, so far this hasn't happened. In a couple of weeks, if Kakuro Conquest shows no sign of life (including replying to the message I sent via their contact form), I will release the puzzles on this blog so they don't go to waste (and so this blog has something happening on it). The puzzle below is not one of those puzzles, but I do believe it's representative of the quality you can expect.
Edit: I have now reached out to Perfomant Design via Kakuro Conquest's contact form, the e-mail address on their site, and their Twitter account, in the best good faith effort which I can muster to give them a chance to stop me from using these puzzles without their permission. I also reached out to Kareem Ahmed, who contacted me on behalf on Performant in 2011 back when he worked closely with them, and paid me to write the puzzles in the first place. If I am getting myself into hot water, I have at the very least done everything I can think of to test the temperature safely.

Puzzle 420: Totally Awesum 21
Today is the 25th birthday of Mike Sylvia, a member of the puzzle community whom I've come to kinda sorta respect. He, and I quote, "may be the only person who can truthfully say his Facebook picture is of him drinking Dr. [sic] Pepper out of a wine glass in a Taco Bell while wearing a suit." What will he get for his birthday? A puzzle with two 25's in the first column! Yay!
Puzzle 390: Totally Awesum 20
I have a most exciting announcement to make. Ahem.
I now have 100% completion in New Super Mario Bros. Wii!!!
That had absolutely nothing to do with this puzzle, but I felt that it was imperative to announce it nonetheless.

Looks like all that energy that led up to puzzle 150 is wearing off. It's been over a week since the last update. . . D:
