'''Team Insane''', also recorded as '''Insane''' and later as '''East Auckland Insane''', was an Auckland-based New Zealand tournament [[paintball]] team. Contemporary records document the team in three-player, five-player and seven-player competition between 2000 and 2007, followed by recruitment for continued competition in 2008.[1][2][3][4][5]


'''Team Insane''' (also known as '''Insane''') was a New Zealand competitive [[paintball]] team based in [[Auckland]], active during the early 2000s. Formed around 2000 by players associated with the South Auckland Miniature Wargames Club and Red Alert Paintball Club, the team competed in national and regional three-player and seven-player tournaments.
Insane finished second in the 2001 Valhalla three-player national rankings with 181.7 ranking points.[4]


Insane's most successful documented season was 2001, when it finished second in the national three-man team rankings compiled by the Valhalla database, with 181.7 ranking points. The team also competed in seven-man tournaments, including the [[Northland Open]], RotoVegas in Rotorua and the New Zealand Nationals.[1]
== History ==
 
=== 2000 season ===
 
A contemporary report of the [[2000 New Zealand Paintball Nationals]] described Insane as a newly assembled team whose players had come together only days before the event. This establishes the assembly of that tournament squad, not a precise formal founding date.[1]
 
Insane entered Division Two and recorded 80 preliminary points. It did not qualify for the divisional final.[1]
 
On 1 December 2000, Insane competed at the [[2000 Auckland Indoor 3-Man Open]] at Urban Combat in Pakuranga. The team finished fourth with 15 points, behind Kamo Karzi, Solidaire and Saints.[2]
 
=== 2001 season ===


== History ==
Insane competed at the [[2001 Northland Open]] at Jubilee Park in Whangārei on 25 February 2001. It finished tenth in the combined standings with 60 points.[3]
 
The October 2001 Valhalla standings recorded Insane in both seven-player and three-player competition. The team placed 21st among 23 entries in the seven-player rankings with 28.2 points. Its contributing appearances included the Northland Open, RotoVegas and the New Zealand Paintball Nationals.[4]


=== Formation ===
At the [[2001 New Zealand Paintball Nationals]], Insane scored 223 preliminary points and did not qualify for the divisional finals.[5]


Team Insane was formed in Auckland around 2000, bringing together players from the South Auckland Miniature Wargames Club and the Red Alert Paintball Club.
In the three-player rankings, Insane placed second with 181.7 ranking points, behind DamNatives Red. A second Insane squad, published as '''Insane B''', placed 24th with 28.3 points.[4]


According to founding member [[Michael Earley]], the team emerged from a group of younger players interested in organised tournament paintball who joined with existing members of the Red Alert paintball community.[4]
Insane B was a secondary squad of Team Insane rather than an unrelated team. Its separate ranking entry is retained because the two squads competed independently in the contributing three-player events.


'''Kevin Lunt''' served as team captain. Other early members included Andy Lunt, Neil Morris, Vitaly Miheev, Francis Hambrook and Adam Hambrook.
=== 2002 competition and Kaos entry ===


Red Alert was associated with Auckland paintball operator Lance Potter, who was involved with the field before its later operation by Gavin Harrison.
On 27 January 2002, Insane competed in a three-player tournament at Combat Zone in Ardmore, Papakura. The team scored 135 points in the published standings.[6]


The new team adopted the name Insane and began competing in regional and national tournaments during 2000.
At the [[2002 Northland Open]], members of Insane played as guests for Havoc to complete its event squad. The players were not named. This was an event-specific guest arrangement and does not indicate a merger between the teams.[7]


=== Early competition ===
A report of the [[2002 Auckland 5-Man Tournament]], held at Actions Paintball on 26 October, identified the second-placed entry as '''Kaos (ex-Insane)'''. Kaos scored 750 points.[8]


Insane's name appears in the 2000 national Valhalla rankings published by the New Zealand paintball website [[Mercenaries Star]].
The published wording establishes a connection between Kaos and Insane at that event, but it does not identify the players involved or establish that Team Insane permanently changed its name to Kaos.[8]


The team recorded nine ranking points in the published standings.[2]
=== Captaincy ===


The Valhalla database compiled results from tournaments throughout New Zealand, creating a national comparison of teams competing in different regions.
In a contemporary team-contact discussion preserved from January 2002, Kevin Lunt explicitly identified himself as Insane's captain. The same discussion referred to Mike as the team member with internet access; it did not identify him as captain.[9]


By 2001, Insane was competing in both seven-man and three-man formats.
=== 2007 return ===


The seven-man team entered several major New Zealand tournaments, while its three-man entries achieved stronger results in the national season rankings.
Team Insane returned to documented tournament competition in the 2007 Auckland Super 5s series. The published results recorded Insane eleventh in the June round with 265 points and tenth in the July round with 60 points.[10]


=== Later activity ===
The interim standings published in August placed Insane seventh in Division Two with 325 cumulative points.[10]


Team members continued participating in tournament paintball during 2002.
A roster published during the series named Jarrod Findlay, Tabitha Crump, Francis Hambrock, Gareth Appleby, Justin Spencer and Sam Houlihan. The source did not identify a captain and does not establish that every listed player participated in every round.[10]


Earley recalls competing at the Volcanic Rotorua tournament in 2002. He also recalls refereeing tournaments in Rotorua during 2002 and 2003 alongside Vitaly Miheev.[4]
=== East Auckland Insane and 2008 recruitment ===


These activities reflect the continued involvement of former or existing team members in the paintball community, although they do not establish that Insane entered every event concerned.
In January 2008, Jarrod Findlay used the name '''East Auckland Insane''' while recruiting for the team and a proposed development squad. East Auckland Insane was a later styling of the same Team Insane organisation rather than a separate team.[11]


The precise date when Team Insane ceased competing is not documented.
Findlay stated that surplus players at the 2007 Nationals had provided the nucleus of the development squad. The new squad had not been formally named, although '''Asylum''' had been suggested. The post described planned twice-monthly training, five-player tournament participation and promotional and refereeing work for sponsor Actions Paintball.[11]


== Players ==
The source establishes recruitment and planned activity, but it does not confirm that the proposed development team subsequently competed or adopted the Asylum name. The proposal was unrelated to the later Asylum Paintball field and should not be used as evidence that the team became that venue.


The early Team Insane playing group included:

! Recorded result
 
Insane appears in the 2000 Valhalla national ranking table with a recorded score of nine ranking points.[2]
 
The Valhalla system evaluated performances from participating tournaments and incorporated results into an annual national table.
 
Its records were not necessarily a complete account of every tournament held in New Zealand, as the compiler acknowledged that some historical results were missing.[3]
 
The 2000 entry establishes Insane's participation in the national tournament scene by that year, although the surviving table does not provide a complete match-by-match record for the team.
 
=== 2001 seven-man season ===
 
Insane competed in three recorded seven-man tournament events during 2001.
 
The Valhalla database lists the team in the Northland Open, RotoVegas in Rotorua and the New Zealand Nationals.[1]
 
The team's recorded ranking contributions were:

Insane finished '''21st among 23 teams''' in the published national seven-man season rankings, with 28.2 points.[1]
 
The results reflect ranking contributions calculated using the Valhalla methodology rather than raw match scores.
 
==== Northland Open ====
 
The [[Northland Open]] was one of New Zealand's established annual tournament competitions.
 
Insane participated in the 2001 event as part of its seven-man tournament programme.
 
Earley recalls playing at the tournament when he was approximately 17 years old, using a Spyder paintball marker and second-hand JT Proflex goggles.[4]
 
The team's Valhalla ranking contribution from the event was 6.7 points.[1]
 
==== RotoVegas ====
 
Insane also competed at the 2001 RotoVegas tournament in Rotorua.
 
The event was part of the Rotorua tournament tradition, which included the Volcanic Rotorua competitions held during the early 2000s.
 
The Valhalla standings credit Insane with 5.6 ranking points from the event.[1]
 
Earley recalls the tournament as one of his earliest experiences of competitive paintball against established New Zealand teams.[4]
 
==== New Zealand Nationals ====
 
Insane entered the New Zealand Nationals during the 2001 season.
 
Its recorded Valhalla ranking contribution was 15.9 points, the largest of its three recorded seven-man tournament contributions that year.[1]
 
The result contributed to the team's final seven-man season total of 28.2 ranking points.
 
=== 2001 three-man season ===
 
Insane achieved its strongest documented national ranking in three-man competition during 2001.
 
The Valhalla standings placed the team '''second nationally''' with 181.7 ranking points.[1]
 
'''DamNatives Red''' finished first with 226.4 points, while '''Tag n' Release GPS''' finished third with 159.3 points.

The team's second-place position was an overall national season ranking, rather than necessarily a second-place finish at one individual tournament.
The scores came from different tournament and ranking systems and should not be compared directly.
 
The ranking database calculated team performance from tournament-round results, applying different formulas to preliminary and final rounds.[3]
 
=== Insane B ===
 
The 2001 national three-man standings also list a second team entered as '''Insane B'''.
 
Insane B finished 24th in the published season rankings, recording 28.3 points from the opening round of the Combat Zone three-man competition.[1]
 
The separate entry indicates that Insane fielded more than one squad in three-man competition.
 
Valhalla treated named secondary teams as independent entries rather than combining their ranking points with the principal squad.[3]
 
The individual lineup of Insane B has not been established.
 
=== 2002 Volcanic Rotorua ===
 
Players associated with Insane continued attending tournament events in 2002.
 
Earley recalls competing at the 2002 Volcanic Rotorua tournament and later being involved in tournament refereeing in the region.[4]
 
A historical account of the event has been associated with a provisional ninth-place Plate result for Insane, although the original event report has not yet been recovered for confirmation.
 
The team's participation and results during 2002 are less completely documented than its 2001 season.
 
== Competition formats ==
 
Team Insane competed in both seven-man and three-man tournament paintball.
 
=== Seven-man paintball ===
 
Seven-man competition was a major tournament format in New Zealand during the late 1990s and early 2000s.
 
Teams fielded seven players in elimination-style games, often using fields containing natural cover and purpose-built tournament obstacles.
 
Major events on the New Zealand calendar included the Northland Open, Rotorua tournaments and the New Zealand Nationals.
 
Insane competed in these events during the 2001 season.
 
=== Three-man paintball ===
 
Three-man competition used smaller squads and was commonly held on more compact tournament fields.
 
Insane participated in the Indoor 3-Man Open Competition and Combat Zone three-man events in 2001.
 
Its second-place national ranking in the format was considerably stronger than its seven-man ranking during the same season.
 
The 2001 Valhalla standings demonstrate that the two formats were ranked separately, allowing teams to appear in different positions depending on the competition category.
 
== Valhalla rankings ==
 
The [[Mercenaries Star]] website maintained the Valhalla database, which compiled tournament results into national team rankings.
 
The system was designed to compare teams competing at events throughout New Zealand.
 
Ranking scores were calculated by converting tournament-round results into percentage-based performance values, with additional weighting for final rounds.[3]
 
Valhalla also treated secondary squads as separate teams where they competed under distinct names.
 
This methodology explains why Insane and Insane B appeared as separate entries in the 2001 three-man rankings.
 
The team's published ranking scores should be distinguished from individual match scores or tournament finishing positions.
 
== Subsequent involvement of players ==
 
Several players associated with Team Insane remained active in paintball after the team's early tournament appearances.
 
Michael Earley continued playing, refereeing and working in the paintball industry in New Zealand and overseas.
 
He later worked with Auckland paintball operations including [[Lock N Load Paintball]] and [[Asylum Paintball]].
 
Vitaly Miheev remained active in Auckland tournament paintball and was subsequently associated with the operation of Asylum Paintball at Kingseat.
 
These later activities represent the continued participation of individuals from the original team rather than the continuation of Team Insane as an organisation.

Latest revision as of 10:02, 26 October 2026

Team Insane, also recorded as Insane and later as East Auckland Insane, was an Auckland-based New Zealand tournament paintball team. Contemporary records document the team in three-player, five-player and seven-player competition between 2000 and 2007, followed by recruitment for continued competition in 2008.[1][2][3][4][5]

Insane finished second in the 2001 Valhalla three-player national rankings with 181.7 ranking points.[4]

History

[edit]

2000 season

[edit]

A contemporary report of the 2000 New Zealand Paintball Nationals described Insane as a newly assembled team whose players had come together only days before the event. This establishes the assembly of that tournament squad, not a precise formal founding date.[1]

Insane entered Division Two and recorded 80 preliminary points. It did not qualify for the divisional final.[1]

On 1 December 2000, Insane competed at the 2000 Auckland Indoor 3-Man Open at Urban Combat in Pakuranga. The team finished fourth with 15 points, behind Kamo Karzi, Solidaire and Saints.[2]

2001 season

[edit]

Insane competed at the 2001 Northland Open at Jubilee Park in Whangārei on 25 February 2001. It finished tenth in the combined standings with 60 points.[3]

The October 2001 Valhalla standings recorded Insane in both seven-player and three-player competition. The team placed 21st among 23 entries in the seven-player rankings with 28.2 points. Its contributing appearances included the Northland Open, RotoVegas and the New Zealand Paintball Nationals.[4]

At the 2001 New Zealand Paintball Nationals, Insane scored 223 preliminary points and did not qualify for the divisional finals.[5]

In the three-player rankings, Insane placed second with 181.7 ranking points, behind DamNatives Red. A second Insane squad, published as Insane B, placed 24th with 28.3 points.[4]

Insane B was a secondary squad of Team Insane rather than an unrelated team. Its separate ranking entry is retained because the two squads competed independently in the contributing three-player events.

2002 competition and Kaos entry

[edit]

On 27 January 2002, Insane competed in a three-player tournament at Combat Zone in Ardmore, Papakura. The team scored 135 points in the published standings.[6]

At the 2002 Northland Open, members of Insane played as guests for Havoc to complete its event squad. The players were not named. This was an event-specific guest arrangement and does not indicate a merger between the teams.[7]

A report of the 2002 Auckland 5-Man Tournament, held at Actions Paintball on 26 October, identified the second-placed entry as Kaos (ex-Insane). Kaos scored 750 points.[8]

The published wording establishes a connection between Kaos and Insane at that event, but it does not identify the players involved or establish that Team Insane permanently changed its name to Kaos.[8]

Captaincy

[edit]

In a contemporary team-contact discussion preserved from January 2002, Kevin Lunt explicitly identified himself as Insane's captain. The same discussion referred to Mike as the team member with internet access; it did not identify him as captain.[9]

2007 return

[edit]

Team Insane returned to documented tournament competition in the 2007 Auckland Super 5s series. The published results recorded Insane eleventh in the June round with 265 points and tenth in the July round with 60 points.[10]

The interim standings published in August placed Insane seventh in Division Two with 325 cumulative points.[10]

A roster published during the series named Jarrod Findlay, Tabitha Crump, Francis Hambrock, Gareth Appleby, Justin Spencer and Sam Houlihan. The source did not identify a captain and does not establish that every listed player participated in every round.[10]

East Auckland Insane and 2008 recruitment

[edit]

In January 2008, Jarrod Findlay used the name East Auckland Insane while recruiting for the team and a proposed development squad. East Auckland Insane was a later styling of the same Team Insane organisation rather than a separate team.[11]

Findlay stated that surplus players at the 2007 Nationals had provided the nucleus of the development squad. The new squad had not been formally named, although Asylum had been suggested. The post described planned twice-monthly training, five-player tournament participation and promotional and refereeing work for sponsor Actions Paintball.[11]

The source establishes recruitment and planned activity, but it does not confirm that the proposed development team subsequently competed or adopted the Asylum name. The proposal was unrelated to the later Asylum Paintball field and should not be used as evidence that the team became that venue.
