Room? by

You want to fill the adoption centre with eight hundred bovine-size ypur? Are you MAD, friend? Those things are HUGE. I thought ypurs would be monkey-like, about the size of a big cat. That there would be room for...
Well, it's up to you, but I'm not adopting anything bigger than I am.

... the Ypur appears to be a bovine, probably related to either the musk ox or the yak (going on what I recall of the picture linked to a while back). Any actual specific biological details you need, just ask, rather than me making this tl;dr by filling it with stuff about four chambered stomachs and cloven hooves :P
As to tasks, most bovines can be domesticated to provide meat, milk and leather products, or as draught animals to pull heavy things or to carry riders.
I am NOT volunteering to castrate any male Ypurs to make them more docile. Yes, I do know the theory and several techniques. But no, I am not doing it.
However I am working on re-opening the PPC Cute Animal Friends Adoption Agency and I'm sure room can be found for any spare Ypurs there.

845 ypurs? by
on 2008-08-18 02:32:00 UTC

I've already got one, really don't need more... but maybe they could form some type of elite squad (or army) that go after people who misspell "your" as "ypur"... or anyone who transposes two letters right next to each other...
And any severely under-mini-ed OFU could borrow a few of those to ride herd on the students, maybe.
Personally, I picture Ypurs as being very, very affectionate as long as you feed them and don't transpose the letters 'o' and 'p'. Then they turn into ravaging machines of DEATH. :P

Ukrainian, eh? by

Try this site: translator
It appears to be completely Ukrainian, and provides a number of different translations, first in the Cyrillic alphabet (at least, I presume that's what it was), then, under that, Roman for pronunciation.
The only thing is, when I typed in the phrase, it spat the words out individually with no regard to grammar...
Another option might be to find a list of Cyrillic-to-Roman characters ~ there's all sorts of things like that for Japanese characters, so it shouldn't be too hard to find... This looks vaguely like the sort of thing you'd need, though I'm not sure it's quite right. Then, if you have a translator that spits out only Cyrillic, you can go through and transliterate...
Eh, well, I hope I've managed to be at least slightly helpful. Dare I ask why you need to know how to say "Welcome to Wales" in Ukrainian?

Rather a peculiar request... does anyone know (or, rather, can anyone find out) how to say "Welcome to Ukraine" in Ukrainian? Preferably in the Roman rather than Cyrillic alphabet.
Actually what I want to know how to say is "Welcome to Wales" in Ukrainian, but I doubt that combination appears anywhere on the internets, so I plan to play the Substitution Game (what fun, what fun). So what I really need is the Ukrainian for "Welcome to", well, anywhere.

Anyone mind if I make up more of a background to the Ypurs? by

With help form those who know more about mammalian biology than me *Coughs*Trojie*Coughs*. You know, just for the fun. I did Pokemon fanfics a while ago, and I wouldn't mind creating a fictional background to the Ypur. It would take me back *Reminsces until he gets buried under a pile of Ypurs*
Ok, there's 845 of these, we need to give them something to do...

But anyway. Ladies and gentlemen, I also present the page that details the 2008 Ypur invasion.
http://ppc.wikia.com/wiki/The2008Ypur_Invasion
If you wish to add to it, go ahead. But, in total, I believe we currently have 845 Ypurs in circulation. Reckon it's possible to use them as beasts of burden around the HQ? Most importantly, are they intelligent?

... okay, it doesn't look very different. But the ability for security guards (cheers on that title, by the way) to block bad IPs is, I think, the best combination we could ask for in terms of keeping things the same and not being so open to attack.
I'm quite happy for a permanent switch - just so long as we don't end up using both interchangeably, because that will just drive us all mad. One or the other. I'd favour this one simply for the password guards.

We can take almost anything and make something fun out of it. I'll enjoy seeing the mission or wiki entry that describes the thousand-ton rhinos, kites, and ypurs roaming HQ.

I'm thinking of Anastasia Spade (DoIC, from Real World) for the Second and Dmitri Petrovich Ivanov (DoF, from Nochnoy Dozor continuum) for the Third. I haven't gotten to play with those two very much.
