I can see this if the north side is closed:

(B): no worry, it doesn't run on weekends.
(D): operate it in Manhattan only and terminate it at LES - Second Avenue
(M): Extend it to Coney Island via the West End.
(N): normal
(Q): normal
(R): normal
(W): doesn't run, unless it's decided to have it run to Brooklyn along the West End instead of the (M) so West End riders can take their (D) train at 34th Street and not transfer to another train after getting off the (M).

If the south side's closed:

(B): Again, doesn't run.
(D): Normal.
(M): Normal
(N): Operate via the tunnel
(Q): Operate via the tunnel
(R): Normal, unless having three trains via the tunnel is too much, even on the weekend, then have it cut back to Brooklyn only and the (Q) is extended to Queens during the day; nights to its normal terminal at 57th Street.

Now, if BOTH sides are closed, it's just a combo of the service patterns as so:

(B): Doesn't run
(D): Cut it back to Manhattan
(M): Either send it to South brooklyn or have the (W) run for the weekends via West End.
(N): via tunnel
(Q): via tunnel
(R): Either normal, or cut it back if three trains are too much for the tunnel to handle.
(W): DOesn;t run, or have it sent down West End.
