Doomed (New Zealand Paintball Team)
Doomed was a New Zealand tournament paintball team documented in the Auckland Super 5s Series during 2007.
The team’s only confirmed tournament appearance identified in the surviving records was the opening round of the 2007 series. Later cumulative tables continued to carry its points, but do not establish participation in additional rounds.
Tournament history
[edit]Doomed competed in the first round of the 2007 Auckland Super 5s Series on 25 February. The five-player hopperball tournament was held at Actions Paintball in Auckland.[1]
Eleven teams competed across two divisions. Doomed finished seventh in Division Two with 85 points. The contemporary report welcomed Doomed as a new team, but did not state whether this was the team’s first tournament or provide its roster or home area.[1]
Doomed did not appear in the published round results for the second round on 25 March. The accompanying cumulative standings nevertheless listed the team with 65 points, followed by the author’s qualification “I think”.[2] This figure conflicts with the team’s confirmed opening-round score of 85 and should not be treated as a verified revised total.
The third-round cumulative standings restored Doomed’s total to 85 points.[3] Later series tables continued to list the team with 85, but no additional round score for Doomed has been identified.[4][5]
The surviving evidence therefore confirms participation in the opening round only. Continued inclusion in cumulative standings is not treated as proof that the team attended later events.
Recorded tournament result
[edit]| Date | Competition | Division | Result |
|---|---|---|---|
| 25 February 2007 | Auckland Super 5s Series, Round 1 | Division Two | 7th; 85 points.[1] |
Series-score discrepancy
[edit]The published records contain two cumulative figures for Doomed:
| Report | Published cumulative score | Evidence status |
|---|---|---|
| Round 1 | 85 | Confirmed tournament score.[1] |
| Round 2 | 65 | Explicitly qualified by the author with “I think”; Doomed was not listed in the round results.[2] |
| Round 3 and later tables | 85 | Cumulative listing; no additional Doomed round result supplied.[3][4][5] |
The article preserves the conflicting published figure rather than silently correcting it, but uses 85 as the confirmed tournament score because it appears in the original first-round result.
