The requests are actually beating out the armor for the first time in... ever.

Ok, Pickle Requests has passed Armor of von Tarnus, so the possibility of mutual disarmament is alive and well, for those who were saying that they'd support it winning if it and not the Armor were the second-place option.

I wish we had a better Jade request than some college favour, but I can't imagine what they could give us when Panoramia is done with them and we already have the most broken possible item they could give us.
The Secret of Dwellers Bellow? At least we would have the full set.

Speaking from memory here, the main reason I picked the one over the other is because Dwellers Below seems like a really straightforward Apparition spell and not interesting, but the Amber set of possible Apparition spells have this whole mythos about Corvus the Crow Lord that pique my curiosity something fierce. Probably there's nothing there beyond what we already suspect, but there's a chance they're doing something weird with nature spirits or similar and if so I want to know about it.
If they are using the Black Essence or the Whispering Darkness though that may be immediately applicable to a spell we want to make

College Favor is boring but it very much is useful, and we just spent almost all of ours setting this whole thing up to begin with.
We have 14 CF, that is pretty respectable, enough so for a decent battle magic item. That said I would not say no to more CF, we can always find uses for it.

That map does a wonderful job explaining so many of the dynamics of the Empire.

My preference was the plan variant languishing near the bottom that has the Jades spend as many APs as needed for them to capture the Apparitions for a single project. "All the Whispering Darknesses You Have" would make for a Cataclysm-level Cloudkill spell that could take on a small army, with the difficulty reduced a tier into mere Battle Magic by the Staff of Mistery. Alternatively, even a smaller group for low-level battlemagic still saves us the most valuable component we can get - time.
Trading a chunk of CF for 3-6AP is pretty good, so long as you actually want to play with Apparitions again.

I'm sure all these individual requests in Pickle Requests add up to something sizeable, but it doesn't feel like a commensurate reward
EDIT: Adding some approval votes
[X] Elector-Countess
[X] Break College Favor/ Tenure
[X] Dispensation to study methods of destroying or beneficially transforming Dhar
[X] Cooperate with the dwarves on creating the plans for a flying ship type that can, in theory, be regularly produced - plus dibs on a prototype of a larger ship when such is built

Honestly, same, and I approval voted it the moment I woke up and saw it, but you'll note that none of the plans that were invented after the moratorium are doing well at all. I think most people just take a look at the tally, look at what's near the top, pick their favorite, and move on, so stuff that gets an early lead keeps winning and latecomers have no chance.
(Seriously, folks, approval vote more. If I had a nickel for every time I saw someone say "well, my favorite thing has no chance, so I'm just going to vote for [least distasteful of the things doing well]" instead of approval voting their favorite option alongside, I would have enough money to buy every regular poster in this thread a month of SV Premium.)
