[edit]The following tables reproduce the published standings including all three rounds.[2] Division 3 and Division 4 contain results from April, July and October; Tercias D4 contains only Recoil results.
MONAGUILLOS is marked as not placed in the Division 4 season table because it moved to another division. Its recorded 30 points are retained without assigning a numbered season position.[2]

Gaps and discrepancies
[edit]Division movement
[edit]MONAGUILLOS finished eighth in Novatos at Dye, with 30 points. Those points are marked as not placed in the Division 4 season standings. Its separate Division 3 season entry records 100 points from winning Recoil.[2][6][8] The season classification does not remove its published Dye event placing.
Eclipse team name
[edit]The Eclipse event placings and score records identify the seventh Division 4 entry as Loose Riders. The season table instead assigns the corresponding 50.91-point result to Pink Sykaryos.[2][7][10] The final standings above retain the season record's wording; a name change, reassignment or organisational relationship has not been verified.
Missing and coded playoff records
[edit]The Dye Abierta final lists Sykaryos and Hellfish Paintball Team with dashes rather than a numerical score. Their first and second places are separately documented in the event placings.[6][9]
The Eclipse Division 4 final-stage table contains an initial F entry for both finalists, followed by a 4–1 result for SYKARYOS WANNABE against Hellfish Paintball Team RED. The reason for the additional coded entry is not established.[10]
At Recoil, the Tercias D4 semi-final and final each display 0–0, with individual point entries coded T, T and F for both teams. Published placings identify VAGOS RONNIN ROJO first, but the recovered scores do not explain how the playoff positions were decided.[8][11] No numerical winning score or cancellation is inferred.
Dye qualification
[edit]The Dye Novatos preliminary table lists RAPTORS third overall and SYKARYOS WANNABE fifth, but the recovered semi-finals include SYKARYOS WANNABE and omit RAPTORS.[9] The records do not explain that difference; the event placings and season points are retained as published.
Ranking order and awards
[edit]Some equal totals receive separate numbered positions. The published order is reproduced without adding an unverified tie-break explanation.[2]
The standings establish the recorded points and ranking order, rather than proof of World Cup qualification, prize delivery or travel funding.
