Standard view this close is going to be difficult. You may get lucky, but since less then 20% of the resort is standard view, they go very fast. People have reported not being able to get standard view 10 months out.
Because the choice is so limited, requests also have limited success. I believe that most of the Standard view rooms are close to the elevators, so that is good. as far as getting them near eachother, it is really a lottery, you may, but then again, you very well may not.
At OKW the studio would not likely be next to you. It may be a floor up or down, they are exterior stairs, so that would actually be good. The other unit may be up a different flight of stairs. There are three pool areas, so any room is relatively near a pool.
When you make your next reservation, you will be able to make it at the eleven month mark, requests are homored in the order they are made. You will be able to get exactly what you want at the eleven month mark.
Creeping socialism was seen hundreds of years ago when James Madison said: "I believe there are more instances of the abridgement of the freedom of the people by gradual and silent encroachments of those in power than by violent and sudden usurpations."
