Documented its joint victory at the December 2011 South Auckland Paintball Club event and its participant-reported ninth-place finish at the first 2012 NZPPL Auckland event. Corrected the previously reported activity period from 2008 to the verified 2011–2012 period, and distinguished the qualified 2012 placing from an independently verified official result.)

Wipeout was a New Zealand tournament paintball team identified with Mount Maunganui. The team was documented in competition during 2011 and 2012, jointly winning a South Auckland Paintball Club five-player event in December 2011 and recording a participant-reported ninth-place finish at the first Auckland event of the 2012 New Zealand Paintball Players League season.[1][2]

History

[edit]

2011 South Auckland Paintball Club series

[edit]

Wipeout was identified as a Mount Maunganui team in contemporary discussion of the South Auckland Paintball Club five-player series at Lock N Load Paintball in Auckland.[1]

Eight teams attended the event held on 11 December 2011. In the organiser's post-event report, Wipeout and a team recorded as BOP were declared joint winners. The surviving report does not provide individual game scores or identify Wipeout's players.[1]

2012 New Zealand Paintball Players League

[edit]

Wipeout competed at the first Auckland event of the 2012 New Zealand Paintball Players League season, held at Lock N Load Paintball on 7–8 April.[2][3]

A contemporary participant-provided list placed Wipeout ninth among sixteen teams. The contributor qualified the list with “If I am not mistaken”, and an independently published official final table has not been recovered. The placing is therefore recorded as a contemporary reported result rather than a verified official standing.[3]
