I am not sure what this 'dir' argument is supposed to do.

It is needed for finding the description, rules, and credits files for each game, which are then displayed below the board. I have not found any means by which Jocly itself will display these.

I guess the 'module' field points to the sub-directory in 'games' where Jocly has to look for the -config.js,

Yes, I have made an array from it with just the directory information for each game. So, I modified the rewrite rule in .htaccess to just use the name of the game.

As I make database entries for the games, I want to get the credits right. When I used grep to find all the files with credits for Muller, the only games that came up were Elven Chess, Spartan Chess, Team Mate Chess, and Werewolf Chess. I thought you had coded more than this. Please let me know which other games you should be credited on.
