I was at Tower you could see it on the monitors. Needless to say security kicked all of us out of the mansion and we had to establish some sort of perimeter around the front gate of the mansion. So we're trying to tell guests that we are experencing technical difficulties. The guests are pissed cause "NOTHING IS OPEN" (I believe in Indy and Splash were 101). It was good times.
i don't know about splash but that sent us 101 also since our tracks go right over the main part of your attraction. splash probly had to go 101 also just because of proximity, it wasn't too bad though, for me, i got to baby sit a train at toontown, while we were 101 for the second time that evening, only this time for security purposes. and all that happened at the same time, as Fantasmic letting out as i remember ... unless this is another instance wherein, mansion and trains were 101 for security purposes, and indy was, well, in it's normal status ... (101) whilst Fantasmic was letting out ... i'm gunna miss that show.

No of course not. Indy just happened to be 101 the same time as mansion and splash and right before the 10:30 fantasmic

no, but indy is down so much that i'd almost say that it's standard for us to be down as often as most attractions are up, if you follow. (ie, most rides will be up for four or five hours at a time, before something goes haywire, indy will go haywire for four or five hours at a time, before everything starts working) we had two, four-five hour downtimes last week, and have numerous little ones on a daily basis. only rarely do we have planned downtimes, and those are for pissy guest lost and found searches, which usually turn up on a whole other attraction.

Didn't Indy just have a refurb earlier this year? Well we all know the park is held together with duct tape and a little pixie dust

It depends on what it is and where it lands. If it's a hat or sunglasses usually no, unless of course it lands in a sensor. But somethings like a passport, medications, and bags with identification, and credit cards in it and stuff like that.
