Time has named him the world's most influential person.

Quote
In a stunning result, the winner of the third annual TIME 100 poll, and new owner of the title world's most influential person, is Moot.

The college student received 16,794,368 votes and an average influence rating of 90 (out of a possible 100) to handily beat the likes of Barack Obama, Vladimir Putin and Oprah Winfrey. To put the magnitude of the upset in perspective, it's worth noting that everyone Moot beat out actually has a job.

For proof of Moot's influence on the web, one need look no further than the TIME 100 poll results. While Filipino boxer Manny Pacquiao got a larger vote total (20,391,818), the runner-up for the title of world's most influential person, Malaysian politician Anwar Ibrahim, received a mere 47 on the influence scale. (See the full results here.) Moot denies knowing about any concerted plan by his followers, Army of Muppets, to influence the poll, though TIME.com's technical team did detect and extinguish several attempts to hack the vote.

Undoubtedly, many people will question Moot's worthiness of the title world's most influential person. TIME.com managing editor Josh Tyrangiel says that Moot is no less deserving than previous title-holders Nintendo video game designer Shigeru Miyamoto (2007) and Korean pop star Rain (2006). "I would remind anyone who doubts the results that this is an Internet poll. Doubting the results is kind of the point."

Big deal, I once talked to God.

It was a wrong number, but hey, I still talked to Him.
Treize (pronounced 'trays')- because 'Treisprezece' is too long and even harder to pronounce.

lol no wonder he won. Moot came first place with 16m votes. Runner up was 2m. Not hard to disrupt such a small poll.
The members of 4chan, (among other boards) were also able to get Rick Astley voted Best Act Ever for MTV Europe or something.

holy cheet that is funny!

I'll never look at mallards the same way, evar again.
... missions were to be met by the commitment of alerted swarms of fighters, composed of Me 109's and Fw 190's, that were strategically based to protect industrial installations. The inferior capabilities of these fighters against the Mosquitoes made this a hopeless and uneconomical effort. 1.JD KTB

Put down your broom and back away slowly.  It's not wise to call shenanigans on the wingman of the worlds most influential person.

The really crappy thing about all this is I think I have arthritis in my hands now from all the typing and clicking it took to vote for him about 500,000 times.

Personally, I wouldn't believe any parallel between our m00t and moot.
