I've been watching it every week as well. Pretty fascinating.
On the one hand, I feel bad for Mim, since she gets slammed every week. On the other hand, I am happy that she is getting a lot of customers!
I should have been keeping track, so we could plot it. I know it has been going on for several weeks in a row. Can we crowd source this? Anyone remember these? I'll edit them in. We'll call it "Mim Watch: 2020."
UPDATE 09 Dec 2020: While I will continue to update this thread, you can also now find it plotted here

From this point, Mim has been running without a set cap, but is posting when things will ship. It was typically 2-3 days out for most of the holiday season.
As of mid-January 2022, she is still running in this mode, so it may be time to put this to rest. I'll add a post to the end of the thread with my plot of nearly 2 years worth of data.
