Anyone know what happened to the 'Don't pull rope' gag in the rotunda? Last I went, the rope was gone.

Hmm, thats weird... maybe it snapped or they are adding some new things to it. People pull on the rope all day so I would guess the mechanism holding it and pulling it would break or need repairs.Dude.. -

I'm sure it'll be back. Same thing happens to the bamboo pole.

Just routine repairs most likely. Give it a few weeks at most and it'll be back. Bamboo pole, goat on BTMRR, key-dog on PotC, etc... all of them disappear from time to time for work and repairs.
Our revels now are ended. These our actors, As I foretold you, were all spirits and Are melted into air, into thin air: And, like the baseless fabric of this vision, The cloud-capp'd towers, the gorgeous palaces, The solemn temples, the great globe itself, Yea, all which it inherit, shall dissolve And, like this insubstantial pageant faded, Leave not a rack behind. We are such stuff As dreams are made on, and our little life Is rounded with a sleep. mycroft16 on TwitterComment

Back on the evening of Friday the 9th the rope was down to one strand. By Saturday it was removed. It'll be back soon, I'm sure."The way to get started is to quit talking and begin doing" -Walt DisneyComment

I believe it was removed for maintenance during the short refurb where they programmed the jeeps and installed the new Indiana Jones Audio-Animatronic.Comment

The spike room works, you just have to hit the pole like a freight train.Comment

And it takes time for it to reset. If you see it get tripped right ahead of you, it won't work for you. I think it's about 30-45 seconds before someone can trip it again."The way to get started is to quit talking and begin doing" -Walt DisneyComment

And yes, we gave it time to reset.Quote by Al:

^ Same. It wasn't working for a while before the four day refurb. Then I guess they fixed the sound, because it works now, but the roof doesn't move down anymore. Maybe someone in the room was too tall and set of a sensor or something?

Can anyone distinguish what they are saying when you pull on the rope? I never get a chance to stop and listen to what they are saying because usually people are following behind me.

Wow, I never noticed those lines! They always sound so muffled, and there's always a lot of noise around that area, thanks for that list! I'll have to pay more attention to what they say when it's working again.Comment
