Looks like my favorite is dead and everything similar is tied to dealbreakers.
Least objectionable plan time

I share the exact same sentiment. If Plan Swiss Equality does end up winning, all I really would have to say at this point is to wish the QM the best of luck with this.

Well we could always be as xenophobic and militaristic as possible in the quest, eventually contradict our original aspects and hopefully replace them, unfortunately the deal breaker of the plan (for me) is something we can't change easily. The Psionic normalness instead of commonality
 
We still have at least until Monday guys, we can come all together and vote for a compromise that gets at least some of what we all want instead of one that many of us don't want?
 
Paging @gutza1:
Can you please explain your Plan for a minute? I would like to know if there's anything more to it than what I read as I combing the posts involving it.

Since a culture can be have wonderful arts and literature and be quite welcoming, while being militaristic as well. As that was your main written complaint of other Plans.

Edit:
If this read as me being rude and confrontational, I apologise and would like to state that that was not the case or intent. I'd just like to know.

Edit 2:
For that matter, for others, why the overwhelming focus on Psionic Powers?

Maybe we can edit your plan slightly and compromise with some of the Swiss voters?
That's the only way I can see us winning against the Swiss plan.
 
Hmm, I'd like to vote for something that has weird in it and a winning chance as well. Probably too much to ask there at this point. :p

Psionically Barren means Universal Psionics tech isn't acquirable so even without the psionic fertility it should be acquirable at some point, and it wouldn't be easy to change other traits just possible through play.
