ADRs can't be made Oct. 12-14!

Just saw this on Disney's website on the Dining and Reservations page and wanted to pass it along for anyone whose 180-day mark falls during this time:

"Please be advised that we will be updating our systems to serve you better. During this enhancement, beginning on October 12 at 4 p.m. ET, online bookings and bookings through the Disney Reservation Center will be unavailable. We expect to return to full functionality by the morning of October 14. We apologize in advance for any inconvenience. Please note that these dates and times are subject to change."

I'm not sure if this is just for dining or if it is for all reservations, but I know that DVC member services will be down at the same time and cannot make any reservations for members at all. Hopefully the system will really only be down for the time Disney has stated. Although, based on past experience, it seems like any time Disney does any kind of upgrade, update, or new launch for anything involving its IT department, it is a total disaster at first and takes a while for them to get it completely sorted out (like when they launched online ADR booking)!
