Any news regarding the Chinese translation of Arimaa? The Running-Rabbits-Game option (or Rabbit-Race-Game or similar) sounds best to me too.

Oh, thanks for the reminder. Early in the semester I persuaded my classmate Bingchen to help edit the Wikipedia, but at that time Omar was not around, i.e. not available to make a decision, and since then I forgot. Bingchen was of the opinion that paotuqi sounded too much like a kids game, something not to be taken seriously, and preferred aruimaqi as a name to promote a serious chess variant. At this point I don't know what to think.
Anyway, to move forward we just need Omar to write up something official-sounding about how his choice of Chinese name for his game is X, so that I can forward the proclamation to Bingchen, who can quote it when he edits the Wikipedia article.
I'll bug Omar about it.

It occurred to me that Arimaa should be called "Xiang-trap" with whatever "trap" translates to in Chinese substituted in there.
