Ok, I'll bite... Considering the amount of posts you had since your OP that says something in itself I think.
I'm not going to argue Siri's victory or your thoughts and feelings as a fan of her. As fans we all have preferences for one girl or another, for whatever reasons that may be. I congratulate Siri with her title as best Newcomer 2012. And as a fan of Harley, I'm very disappointed Harley didn't win.
Being the close competition it was between Harley and Siri in every round, I don't think 'many' expected a sure outcome at all as you say. How could we? There you had these two girls in close competition for the top spot. But two different worlds as well. Siri is a beautiful girl and I'm sure she is sweet too, but I didn't even know she existed before the contest started. She joined FreeOnes March 29th 2012 (!) and made 15 (!) posts so far. Her world was and is outside FreeOnes and even during the contest I didn't get to know her! Lots of ladies would take advantage of the contest to post comments, pictures, interact, gain new fans on the board... She didn't. She sticked to her blog.
The other world is Harley's. She's gorgeous, works her ass off day and night, makes great stuff, joined almost a year ago and interacts not only on her own forum and twitter, but on FreeOnes too with comments, interaction, pictures, what not. We can reach out. We know her. She's one of us. And THAT's what I call a best newcomer!
I know the FreeOnes competition is not only about the FreeOnes community or gaining new members. I know the competition is about what we - not only the board but everybody out there - in general consider to be the best in porn. But this isn't an independent contest. It's a FreeOnes contest, organized by FreeOnes, where a girl is to be considered someone who is representative of what FreeOnes stands for. That's why it's called Miss FreeOnes and not Miss Porn. And that's what makes me sad and disappointed why Harley didn't win. A lot can be seen as a subjective view by a fan. But not this.
