Nobody is Perfect: Historical Monograph, by nip.PiToN — The history of the NiP clan and Russian Quake II, partially :)

"On August 18, 1998, an epochal event takes place - the Internet clans SGM , BRP and Tesis decide to unite. After a long search for a name, the choice falls on the slogan found on the shirt of [SGM]ViS: Nobody is Perfect - I AM NOBODY! Moreover, the first part, in isolation from the second, is simply translated as 'no one is perfect.' We really liked this ambiguous and somewhat psychedelic name, and the decision was made - it was decided to call the new clan NiP (Nobody is Perfect)."
