If I understand the situation correctly, you were most likely violated for getting new convictions. Also on known as a "condition 1" violation, aka Failure to Be of Good Behavior. A condition 1 violation does not use the sentencing guidelines so the Judge has full discretion in deciding how much time to give you back.
