Well i wouldnt say snapnames is a joke, tho it is true that its a matter of timing. Domains are released to the public 2 times daily at specific times. However, going by a diagram on a site like snapnames (whose existence requires they are ahead of everyone else on as many names as possible) is most likely NOT a good way to guage things as it seems to me that it would be more than a little biased (which it is). They have tried to generalize the cycle of expired names, which they cant do, due to each registrar having its own way of doing things.

I will mention that fallendomains's AutoReg system checks names that members have added to the system every 5 minutes during a 1 hour window twice a day =)
