Closest challenge?

There was a fun forum post by Ten Stitches about the closest win in an Old Spice Experience Challenge. He found won that came down to a 2 POINT difference between 1st and 2nd place. Check it out:

Gamerscore Ballas
It was a heated competition for the entire 30 days, each gamer bouncing back and forth, trading the lead. In the end, IV Headsh0t VI was able hold on by only two points over jedi8955.

You know what the best part of this is, and why I feature it on the homepage? At the end of the challenge, the gamer that was beaten by only two points didn't freak out... didn't accuse the person of cheating... didn't do anything but post the message:

Dude, TWO POINTS.

Congratulations man.

That is some serious class right there. Congrats to you both for such an exciting challenge and for being good people.
