I agree with Sepultura here. You're making arbitrary judgements on the values of different exploits. There's no reason why exploiting Twins or C'thun is less legit than exploiting Yogg-saron, just because the element of the fight you're exploiting is linked to the bosses rather than to mobs that may not have the same name as the boss but are equally if not more important mechanics of the fights.
If you want to argue that a Twins kill is only legitimate once someone has achieved the gear necessary to outDPS their healing, then in the same vein you should argue that an Anub'rekhan kill is only legitimate once you've achieved the gear to deal with all the adds. You could add different categories (like you seem to have done on your blog) but ignoring a kill because you personally think the exploit used is graver than the ones you yourself honour is rather hypocritical.
@Krelle: I doubt it's possible to trace the accurate details of some of the earliest kills (lvl 70 Onyxia/MC soloes, for example), especially when you can't assume everyone who attempts soloing actually finds this website. I can barely even remember the first time I soloed Onyxia on any of my characters, so I wouldn't dare argue I beat someone to it.
