The continued growth in the number of users on Middlecoin in the last week is the short answer. Also, over the holidays there is less server babysitting going on. 

The graphs are updated in the order the data files were created and the JSON, like the home page, is sorted by hash rate.

The newer users and users with lower hash rates will be processed later in each run. If the process hangs or the server needs a reboot, it's more likely that these users don't get run for several rounds. That's been happening lately so, if that's you, that's why. Sorry about that.

I'm building out a new server this morning so look for improvement soon.
