The general chatter that I have learned from the DIS on your ADR planning is that yeah, people make reservations for Plan A, Plan B, Plan C... sometimes people are holding onto 5 reservations because it's so far ahead, most planning is up in the air. Disney doesn't release schedules very well to help people plan to the exact minute, so of course everyone books everything as soon as they can, and changes it to suit their needs once they have their luggage in their rental car and are parking at the TTC. Don't panic, just start checking at least once or twice a day for the month or so prior, and definitely multiple times a day leading up until you walk into the restaurant! LOL
People cancel the other 4 reservations they are holding when they realize that they are eating at the Resort instead because Aunt Martha doesn't have a MK ticket to get into BOG... and they often don't find that out until 2 days before their plane arrives.
I actually forget to ADR a dinner for one of our nights and quickly became a frantic mess when I realized we were likely to go hungry until we could order pizza to our room. Until my DH pulled out his phone and was like, "What Park does this bus stop at next? Okay well here are seven places we can have dinner in the next 15 minutes...where am I placing a reservation for?" And we walked through security, to the restaurant and had a lovely dinner with no indications whatsoever that only an hour earlier, I was practically breathing steam about how I could have forgotten something so obvious... Waterpark Day comes with DINNER at the end, hello!
