This is the puzzle that I created for thetiredsaint's 40th birthday, which they encouraged me to share here for you all to solve! Ratings, comments, and feedback are much appreciated! Please feel free to reach out to me on Discord if you have any comments or questions. Please also feel free to try my other puzzles here.

Rules:
- Normal sudoku rules apply.
- Kropki pairs: Digits separated by a white dot are consecutive, and digits separated by a black dot have a 1:2 ratio. Not all dots are given.
- Clues outside the grid represent either Sandwich or X-sums clues; standard rules apply for each, except for Sandwich clues the sums include the 1 and the 9. The solver must determine which constraint applies to each clue.

Very nice! Surprisingly, this ruleset just clicked for me, and flowed like water from start to finish. A specific deduction in a specific box was quite beautiful as well ;)
