The Contender Cup : revealed.
@ Scene news channel



You may have spotted a post last week alluding to "The Contender Cup" which I'm sure will have raised more questions than it gave answers. Now however we can reveal the event's entire format for your perusal.

In association with our friends at NiP-gaming.com we present a knockout tournament open to as many teams as wish to enter. Sixteen teams will be seeded through into the last thirty two double elimination stage. The remaining teams will play off in single elimination knockout format to fill the other sixteen places in this second round.

The winning team will get the opportunity to face NiP on the field of battle. I'm sure you'll agree it's not every day you get a chance to play one of the true legendary names in gaming history which makes this a unique opportunity to pit your skills against the world famous team.

NiP-gaming.com will also be contributing to the winners and runners up - VIP accounts for their website which enable you to become a part of a special community and have exclusive access to certain parts of the NiP-Gaming website that regular members cannot.




About the NiP VIP account
Play with the NiP Players!
NiP ViP offers a range of cheat-free Counter-Strike 1.6 servers for ViP members to play on which uses a special Anti-Cheat system named NiP Anti-Cheat (NAC) so unlike "normal" public Counter-Strike servers you won't have to worry about people using things such as wallhack to gain an unfair advantage and also people cannot use fake nicks. On the NiP ViP servers players must use the same nicknames as they use on NiP-Gaming.com so when you see you are playing with HeatoN or any other NiP player it's really them that you are playing against!

Win prizes on the NiP ViP Servers!
Every month the top players from the NiP ViP Servers get to win special prizes from our sponsors SteelSeries and Icemat along with other great prizes such as gathers and vip extensions.

Play in gathers with the NiP Players!
The winners from each month also get a chance to play in a special show match with the NiP players, these matches are played on a maxrounds 15 format on best-of-three maps. The way in which it works is the top three ViP winners of that month will get to pick which two NiP players they would like on their team and the remaining three NiP players will play with the other team with the remaining two ViP members. These matches are broadcasted live via HLTV and POV demos are released from the NiP players after the matches.

Demos & Replays:
Get to download exclusive POV demos from the NiP Counter-Strike players from mixes, gathers, pcws, public etc and we also offer special Warcraft III replay packs from our Warcarft III squad. Demos and Replays are added on a regular basis so you can always see the latest and greatest action from the players.

Galleries:
View exclusive pictures from the different events NiP attend including bootcamps and sponsor related events.

Guides:
NiP offers a range of guides for our ViP members and we are always adding new content on a regular basis. Need help with a certain aspect of the game? Chances are you will find something about it in the guides section.

Forums:
We have a special forum section that only ViP and NiP members can access, in these forums people can ask whatever it is they'd like to ask and get good answers from other ViP members and NiP members.

Ask NiP:
Ask NiP is a special feature we have where you can ask anything you'd like directly to any of the NiP Counter-Strike or Warcraft III players and receive an answer within a short amount of time directly in your NiP-Gaming.com message inbox. All Ask NiP questions are published in the Ask NiP section so you can view other people's questions and the answers they received from the NiP players.

NiP ViP FAQ:
Want to know which settings the ninjas use? What -noforcemparms does? All the frequently asked questions the ninjas receive are answered here and their details are updated on a regular basis! FAQ also answers many questions about how to connect to the servers using NAC (NiP Anti-Cheat), how to get into the special ViP IRC Channel and much much more.

Ninjas Configs:
Want to know the exact in-game settings and controls the ninjas use in Counter-Strike? All of their configs can be downloaded with NiP ViP and the config files are updated on a regular basis so you will always be able to see their latest settings.
