Time is moot

[McClaud]

These are finalists, btw.

They already took votes from the Internet and moot is still on there. There are no write-ins from here on out. Time believes people really think he's that influential.

I think Time doesn't understand the entire 4Chan flood thing.

Out of 200+ people? He'll get a short blurb about 4chan and lolcats. Which is probably somewhat warranted.

I agree.

At some point, they should mention moot and 4Chan just because it does influence a large portion of the Internet crowd.

 

[Chibz]

Maybe he really IS this influential.

 

[Lukeydoodly]

Wow 4chan does it again.

Why do people think that even 1% of those votes are legit?

 

[Izakflashman]

Woa, ignorance and pop culture beats real life world changers once again.

You just have to assume most people have heard of the Jonas Brothers and not many have heard of the Nobel Prize winner.

I honestly had never heard of them until the recent South Park episode. But then again, I'm hardly their target demographic.

 

[Abedeus]

The whole list is a joke.

Kaka? Come on, Ronaldo is a way bigger star.

Guess what kaka means in Polish.

A child word for "crap".

Zing.

This is also my reaction to the poll. A big kaka.

Same. If not for Escapist and then South Park, I would've never heard about them.

I figure, so long as they're not doing anything to constrain vote spamming, they're all legit.

 

[McClaud]

This is a trend I've noticed:

First four names start with an R, and then moot.

At least NOW there's an educator and a reformist in the top 5 - Ronald Fryer.

 

[Caimekaze]

Rank 1: Ronnie Screwvala: Average rating, 69. 11,271 votes.
Rank 2: Robert Gates: Average rating, 65. 8,963 votes.
Rank 3: Roland Fryer: Average rating, 65. 5545 votes.
Rank 4: Rowan Williams: Average rating, 63. 5530 votes.
Rank 5: moot: Average rating, 62. 567,729 votes.

Hurrah for disparity!

 

[Antidamacus]

If he really was that influential, they wouldn't need 4chan to pound out the votes now, would they?

 

[JCTiger]

Obviously more people would take Global Recession Advice from the people at 4chan...
Who would promptly Rickroll the presentations

 

[sirdanrhodes]

Lets get Yahtzee on there, and make HIM number 1. 4chan, we will fight you to the end.

 

[Caimekaze]

Welp, he's back to no. 1.

 

[Markness]

Heres proof that 4chan is spamming the vote.

Not safe for children: Enter at your own risk.

When I become world dictator, anyone who's ever been on 4chan will be ejected via mass driver capsule onto the surface of Mars. Without an oxygen supply.

I'm from 4chan too, but I beg to differ.
Are you really dumb enough to think that Time will name Most influent person an internet entity whose real name is unknown? How will they interview someone who doesn't even post in his own site anymore?
What will the article be? 15 pages of memes? The history of successfull raids (anontalk and habbo)?
Do you realize the amount of people that would be disgusted to such article? Time would be a total shit. And the people interested would be what's known as newfags.
Time won't EVER make moot the most influent person. They will just knock your votes off, since they are bot made.
