about redflag:

LAN Party (noun)

• A temporary, sometimes spontaneous, gathering of people together with their computers, which they network together primarily for the purpose of playing multiplayer computer games. These local area networks (LANs) come in various sizes, from very small (two people) to very large (more than 6,500 people).

Founded by three local gaming enthusiasts in April 2000, Red Flag Lan Fest, Inc (RFLAN for short) is Perth's premier cyberathletics and electronic gaming organisation.

Well known for the RFLAN Gaming Tournament, after which the organisation is named, Redflag has established itself as a large and successful organisation over its near-five year history. Redflag brings the concept of a network computer gaming event, otherwise known as a LAN Party, to the heart of Western Australia.

We bring together gamers of all ages and levels over two action packed days every few months, giving them the opportunity to prove themselves in our many competitions and socialise with other like minded people (otherwise known as 'Lanners').

Red Flag Lan Fest, Inc, is a strictly not-for-profit organisation that relies on support from sponsors, volunteers and the Western Australian gaming community, in order to succeed. All income generated by Redflag is used to pay for the running of each event, and any remaining revenue helps to fund future events and infrastructure improvements to make each one bigger and better than the last!

Attendees have the opportunity to battle it out in games such as:

• Unreal Tournament 2004
• Battlefield 2 & Battlefield 2142
• Supreme Commander
• Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War
• Command & Conquer: Generals
• Warcraft 3
• Counter-Strike
• Quake 3
• .... and many more!
