> The problem

LAN planning usually ends in chat chaos

Who's bringing the extension cord? When does it start? What are we playing? The answers are buried somewhere between memes and voice messages. By Friday night someone is missing power, a seat or the pizza.

  • Who brings what?
  • Who sits where?
  • What are we playing?

How it works

  1. Create a LAN

    Enter name, dates, location and seats. Choose open or private. Build the room layout right in the editor.

  2. Invite your crew

    Search your friends by username and invite them. Every member sees location, schedule and planning.

  3. Plan together

    Room layout, schedule, shopping list, tasks, game voting and chat fill up together until kickoff.

> Everything for your LAN

From the invite to the last match

Room layout

Place tables, seats, switches and power outlets on a grid: your LAN's room layout and seating plan in one. Everyone sees where they sit, and you can tell at a glance if power and network are enough.

  • Pick your own seat
  • Power and network at a glance

Schedule

Setup, start, pizza, tournament: the timeline shows everyone what's happening now and what's next.

  • Current item highlighted
  • Changes visible to everyone instantly

Shopping list

Who brings what? Add items with quantities and tick them off. The list shows who got what, and open items stand out.

  • Done, with a name
  • Progress at a glance

Game voting

Everyone suggests games and votes. You know in advance what needs to be installed.

  • Suggestions from everyone
  • Ranked by votes
Game voting ranked by votes: CS2, Age of Empires II, Trackmania, Rocket League

LAN chat

Plans stay with the LAN instead of getting lost in a group chat.

  • One chat per LAN
  • For all participants

GAMERDESK isn't a directory, it's your tool for organizing your own. Create a LAN, invite your people, and “we should do this again” becomes a date in the calendar. And if you want to see what others are planning, the overview lists all upcoming LANs.

> You stay in control

You decide who's in

  • Open or private

    Private LANs show up in the overview, but only members can open them. Only members see the location.

  • Invite by username

    Find your people and invite them straight to your LAN.

  • Clear roles

    Owner, organizers and participants: everyone knows who decides what.

Why LAN parties are still the best way to play

No lag excuses, no strangers in voice chat, just pizza, trash talk and that moment when the switch finally works. A LAN lives on good preparation, so all that's left on the night is playing.

Built by someone who organizes LANs himself.
