I created this puzzle a couple of weeks ago. The original version was made on May 11 but I tweaked a couple of things after that. I almost submitted it to the NYT but printing it out in a specific manner and submitting it via snail mail was not worth the effort. Shortz's loss is your gain. Comments welcome. Solve online or get a Printable version .
Today's puzzle is a 21x21. Likely the last of this size I will do. It took me at least 10x longer to fill and then far too long to clue. It has a few more answers than a NYT Sunday but 106 of 358 squares are themed which is pretty high. Overall I'd guess it is a little easier than a NYT Sunday due to there being many more short answers. Solve online or Print it out . .
I based my web app on the code from https://github.com/wiseley/javascript-crossword . I made a few bug fixes and added the keyboard so it can be used on a tablet or phone. It's not the prettiest thing in the world but it seems to work. I plan to upload the new code to github "soon". Comments on bugs and usability suggestions are welcome but don't expect anything. :)
