  Peter "Legionnaire" Neate, 2005's most mannered |
Peter Neate, more known as
Legionnaire started off very early and got himself 9 nominations in total - four more than the second placed 
MidiaN. However, if Legionnaire himself would choose the winner, he would've picked 
Pat from PGTour.- I would probably go outside the norm and nominate one of the major contributors instead of a gamer, like Pat or someone like that, because he gets the most absolute scum abusing him at times, and yet he still puts up with it and gets his work done, says Legionnaire to GosuGamers. He mentions that it was nice to be nominated, even though he kind of knew it in beforehand, since he was one of the jury members.
The award Legionnaire wanted the most
- It's probably the award I'd want most out of all of them, he says. He also points out that he likes the idea that people view him in such a nice way. He says that he does not try to act manner and holds back his anger, he is more of a laid back kind of guy. Last time Peter got annoyed was in a GGL AmeriCup match, where the match had been delayed for the fourth time in a row. He had been told only 10 minutes before the match that the match was cancelled.- And I had waited for 4 hours until 1 AM so that I would be there for it. But again that's just lack of consideration more than bad manner. I was really tired that day, and sorta knew he wouldn't turn up, so it sorta added to it, he adds.
Is being mannered something you will have to think of everytime to not burst out into flames meaning you holding back anger, or are you simply kind as a lamb?
- I don't set out to be manner, I guess I'm just really laid back and a nice guy. The thing that annoys me the most is lack of consideration more than how people act online.
