Thread: Lan Party for the weekend 22-23 feb

*** Venue Booked 60 seats **** see page 9

P-Air LAN Registration page , Please sign up as I will need to know how many people are attending the LAN.

Well, I've gone an bought me a cheapy 24 port switch to get started with, thinking I'll get used to the basics and work out what to spend the big money on at a later date. (CNSH-2400 24Port 100 BASE-TX Fast Ethernet Switch)

So, testing it will be in order. At this stage, making plans to hold a small fun party on the weekend 22-23rd feb. We have the switch, about 6-8 of our gang, and whoever else would like to turn up. Next thing is to find a venue, idea's anyone. I'll be getting onto that once I've managed to get time off over the weekend in question.

Games, we'll be messing with

Battlefied 1942 - The gangs keen to have ago at teams
Warcraft III
Age of mythology
Haegamonia (I- want to have a go over the lan with this, patiently waiting for the gang to work out how to play it)
Serious Sam second encounter
Crimson Skies - Make sure you've a good joystick
UT2003 - Havent played yet, but looking at setting up
+ a few more

In addition to the 24 port switch, I also have 2 x 5 port net gear switches

Wont be running scores or anything, just ad hoc, who wants to play ### next etc, we'll see haow it goes.

Anyone interested?? I guess costs of hiring the venue will be shared, depending on where the venue ends up, we'll bring the barbQs

Q3
i knwo how to play bf1942 but my version didn't work
and aom i got today but having a few probs becuase i cant use my burnt cd for some reson

if u want a cheap one use the bridge club but u gotta organise tables

Thanks night of sih

any idea's on how much it costs at the bridge club??

i dont kow il have to ask a mate
but the police club is liek 100 or somehtign than u can borrow the dga switches if u are very nice and polite to howie and dont waste his time and it costs a fee of course
but its nice there and tabe adn chairs are there and yeha

hey.... i am new to all of this... but been to a couple of lans before.... i got an 8 switch (netgear) n i would like to come.... i can bring some of my m8s if u need any more players..... n yeh.... write back here..... n if u need any food..... message me about it....

NOTE: The last time DGA hired the bridge club the costs where $150 per day. This may have changed as we have not been there for around 6-8 months. There is a phone number at the front of the Bridge Club, but I think the lady is hard to get a hold of .. This is just a heads up!!

looks like this lan might be for all the newies
