This is kind of an odd question but when I look at the graph for work done and average work done in the boinc manager, it will show the next day on the graph sometime in the evening on the day before. How do you get it so that it switchs at midnight? Minor annoyance I know, but I would still like to change it. Thanks

Not exactly sure what you see, but let me ask you where you live? The times you have to off-set against are UTC, as all the servers run at UTC time. So if you're in the US, East Coast, you'll have to add 5 hours to get to the time the scheduler contact made a point on the graph. (In summer, that's 4 hours).

U.S. central standard time. So how would I change the graph to reflect my time?

You can't. All project servers run at UTC, they give the timestamps of your contact back in Unix time (the amount of UTC seconds elapsed since January 1st 1970, excluding leap seconds) and store those points in the statistics_*.xml file.
