Happy New Year everybody!
I can't believe I have only been on this site since February! I would like to use this opportunity to thank all the puzzle setters which have given me many, many hours of pleasure (and torment!), and to thank everyone who has attempted my puzzles and given back really positive comments.

Rules:
- Normal sudoku rules apply.
- A clue outside and at the top of the grid is the count of how many 1s lie along the indicated diagonal. The clue with no number means that no ones appear on that diagonal.
- Little Killer: A clue outside and at the bottom of the grid is the sum of the digits along the indicated diagonal.
- Kropki: A white dot indicates the two connected digits must be consecutive. Not all dots are given.
- Killer: Every 1 in the grid will form (up to a maximum of a) 5-cell 'killer' area; the 1 itself and all orthogonal cells adjacent to the 1. The digits within each area must sum to 24. Digits within each area must not repeat. These areas can overlap.
Solution code: Column 9.

Very nice! 4 stars in my opinion.
I have a feeling you might like to try some of my puzzles which have had few solves due to weird rulesets ;)
This one, for example:
