White-ra is the most old-school ex-ussr player (since all (orky) are retired). I remember he owned in 1.08 times.

From Wikipedia:

In English, the country is sometimes referred to with the definite article, as the Ukraine, as in the Netherlands, the Gambia, the Sudan or the Congo. However, usage without the article is becoming more frequent, and has become established in journalism and diplomacy since the country's independence (for example, within the style guides of The Economist, The Guardian and The Times). Additionally, the usage of "the Ukraine" in English is sometimes discouraged because of the inference that it regards Ukraine as merely a region rather than an independent nation-state.

I'm American, and I've never heard it been referred to as the Ukraine personally, I always use Ukraine.

I saw him completely murder [pG] members when we recruited him a year and a half ago.

I think white-ra has as good a shot as any other nonkor P to do some damage to july/oov/midas.

Upsets are always possible if the right circumstances are in place. Plus, I think if white-ra is able to get a decent advantage early, he's skilled and smart enough to hold it and possibly take a win. Yeah, it's a long shot, but it's still possible.
