Telubuxiao

Weird

I wonder what language this was translated from English into before being translated back into English?

Telubuxiao after leaving the University of Essex, to work to maintain MUD1 transferred to Richard Bartle, Battle MUD using Telubuxiao developed special language — "MUDDL" continue to improve the game, he the number of rooms increased to 400, to further improve the database and chat system, an increase of more tasks, and every player produced a scoring procedure.

I'm guessing Mandarin Chinese, given the way Trubshaw has turned into Telubuxiao (which, thanks to the removal of tonal marks on the syllables can happily be translated as "special cranium not small" — and at least a hundred other possibilities).
