Those safety nets are important but I have had them cause trouble before too. Especially around final payment.
I have never not once seen this happen. And I do a lot of ADRs
I try every time. But until its 6:00 and some seconds I get nada
Interesting. I wonder why DFBGuide keeps reporting 5:45. I watched a video in the past couple weeks where they reiterated it again.
(Okay… truthfully, DFBGuide has been known to just be flat out wrong about things they report, but since they have said this one repeatedly, I thought maybe it was actually true!)

Hey I’m fool enough to try it every time so 
I’m just reporting that in all the ADR days I’ve done I’ve never had it open early for me.
I wonder if there’s something about their accounts that might get them in earlier…
Something else I wanted to share for those with trips on December. Several restaurants had closed days on the calendar.
Yes. And it worked. For example, when the very first reservations became available for S220. I was frantically clicking from about 5.30am. I eventually got a reservation at about 5.35am.

Lots of restaurants are closed on Mondays and Tuesdays and have been. I don’t believe this is unique to December. One that comes to mind is Flying Fish for example.

Ok, sharing for those not in the know so they have alternative dates in mind. I encountered three that thankfully, did not impact my plans.

Hey, thanks. I modified the pics with my full name. The rest I’m not worried about.

I noticed during booking that HDDR is closed Mon and Tues too, and Jiko is closed Tues and Weds.

Yesterday my dates showed up at 5:45 in the app. When I did a search I received a “something went wrong, try again later” message. This has happened my last three trips.
I was able to book at 6am.
I really wasn’t trying for anything hard: 5pm dinner on a party- I wanted BOG but ended up with Crystal Palace (used to be our tradition as the only TS but future DIL has never been there), Jiko, Ale and Compass breakfast, and La Hacienda as a back up if we decide not to do the booths. I have had WBG brunch booked for a while.

Yes! This is how it always goes. It appears the dates are available for booking, until you actually try to book and then it makes me wait until exactly 6
Topollino’s or California Grill pre fixe?
Cali Grill. Especially if you can watch the MVMCP from there.

I love both but not a particular fan of pre fixe because we can’t eat all that food! So in February, we will chose Topolino.

Cali
I was trying to modify the Topollino’s I already have to a more desirable time. All of a sudden said time popped up. I searched Cali’s pre fixe on a whim. Lo and behold it was available at the same time as my desired time at Topollino’s. It’s feast or famine out here. I grabbed Cali and kept the original (8:30) Topollino’s just in case. (Hoarding )
Cali has sushi. My husband will love that. Overall menu looks better at Cali.

Topolinos breakfast and Cali Grill dinner. Win win. There’s nothing on the dinner menu at Topolinos that really wows me, but there are several at Cali Grill.

The French Rose?
The Olives?
Everything was very good there, the above being the standout components for me. But it did not reach the level of CG for me.
