I figured out the problem. The metrics portal had the bridge user
numbers from 2009-11-30 to 2010-01-05 imported twice. This affected all
countries, but was simply most visible for Chinese bridge users. I
removed those days from the stats and imported the descriptors again.

The corrected graphs can be found on the graphs page:

For reference, here is one of the old graphs:

Thanks for letting us know!
