You really shouldn't turn it off at the mains unless the PSU light is orange.

And if the logo was still flashing, it could well have been doing something...

The console syncs when you turn it off, as all saves are cached locally and then synced with the XBL servers ("cloud" saves) at shutdown.

Also, if you have auto-updates enabled in addition to Instant On, it will periodically check for updates when in standby, and perhaps when you turn it off depending what the time is.

Maybe it was updating the system or games/apps, or perhaps it was taking longer than normal to sync?
