Puzzle Getchu!

Quick post here that will probably go mostly unread, but I have another puzzle contest upcoming in a few days. Information, including the instructions booklet can be found at the contest page on puzcon.jp.

I'm pretty excited to see how this goes, I think this set has some of my best puzzles and is definitely the best contest set I've put together yet, even putting aside that it's themed on one of my favorite games.

So yeah, if this is before October 4th, check out the contest and give it a try! If it's after October 4th, I'll either have posted the puzzles on this blog or will be in the process of doing so.

USPC 2023 Post-Mortem

USPC 2023 results are now up, having run this past Saturday. Somehow, I won the US side, and almost by significantly more than the results show. But that's getting ahead of myself, as there's a lot of surrounding context for this event as well as how far back I had to start preparing to put myself in the best position possible. I was not about to miss my best shot at a WPC A-team for, potentially, a long while for any reason.
