That should be "who is" or "who's". "Whose" is the posessive. So you could say "Oveur, whose daughter is "thirty something". I was going to email kieron about this incredibily small and insignificant details but I figured that he gets a billion emails a day and this is probably actually the least disruptive way to let them know 
And congrats on the 30k guys, i was online to see it. Here's looking forward to 50k \o/

You look forward to 50k? I'd rather drop 10K and have more people in low sec/0.0, but I wont hijack the thread :P

This indicates the singular, and yet you mention details.

That should be "who is" or "who's". "Whose" is the posessive. So you could say "Oveur, whose daughter is "thirty something".
Exactly. It's the posessive. It refers to his shouts of joy, as demonstrated by this simplified version: "Oveur, whose shouts of joy."
Having said that, it never leaves the clause started by "Oveur, whose" and then just gets completely lost at the end of the sentence.
Edit: Can't bloody type.
