Fergus Duniho

I am Dr. Fergus Duniho. I got my Ph.D. in Philosophy from the University of Rochester in 2001. I wrote my dissertation on what it means for a person to be evil. I am the creator of several Chess variants, and I am the author of several Zillions Rules Files for playing various Chess variants with Zillions of Games. I am an editor for the Chess Variant Pages, at which I have created Game Courier, a free-to-use online play-by-mail system for playing Chess variants. It supports several games with great graphics, ease of use, and even the enforcement of rules for many games, including Chess, Chinese Chess, Shogi, and more.
