...moot!
moot is the alias of the founder of 4chan. Yeah, it's not hard to expect that they'd be involved in this.
However, there's something interesting about the rest of the poll results, too. marblecakealsothegame, eh?
The top results were engineered by 4chan with a hack that is detailed in this article (or at least, so the article claims).
Now, fairly and objectively, I'd say moot didn't deserve to win. 4chan's influence extends to the geeky fanbases of the internet and that's it. It's very rare and weird for someone in real life to reiterate a 4chan meme, and every person I know that has said a 4chan meme out loud knew beforehand that it was from 4chan. Compare this to movie quotes that get used in everyday life ( and of course, movies) without most people knowing where they come from.
In a weird way, though, you could argue that he is the most influential person. Nobody organized an irc channel for Vladimir Putin, did they?
