Admin: Created a new article for the Invercargill team Lycka after confirming that no existing WikiPaintball article or redirect was present. Covered its fourth-place round-robin result at the 1999 National Three-Man Centre Flag Competition, including the three published match scores, and its equal twenty-first position in the retrospective 1999 Valhalla National Rankings. Corrected the master register's unsupported 1998 date to 1999. No alternative spelling, roster, captain, founding date or later act
