6th Rackspace Chess Tournament This tournament completed April 29th, 2017.

Detailed breakdown of how Jose's M-S-C-O tiebreaks were calculated. Tiebreaks are used to order players who finish with the same score, in the order M, then S, then C, then O. Byes have no opponent, so they are listed but not counted in the opponent-based tiebreaks.

M - Modified Mean [7.5]

The Modified Mean adds up the scores of every opponent Jose Hernandez has played, then discards one of them depending on how Jose Hernandez is doing.

Jose's score (2.0 of 5.0 possible) is less than 50% of the possible points, so the highest opponent score is discarded.

Round	Opponent	Opponent's Score	Counted?
1	Sharvi Nakkala	3.0	Counted
2	Oscar Williams	0.0	Counted
3	Jacob Zeng	4.0	Discarded
4	Apolo Simon	3.5	Counted
5	Charles Massey	1.0	Counted
Modified Mean		7.5

S - Solkoff [11.5]

The Solkoff is the combined score of every opponent Jose Hernandez has played, with nothing discarded. A higher Solkoff means Jose Hernandez faced tougher opposition.

Round	Opponent	Opponent's Score
1	Sharvi Nakkala	3.0
2	Oscar Williams	0.0
3	Jacob Zeng	4.0
4	Apolo Simon	3.5
5	Charles Massey	1.0
Solkoff		11.5

C - Cumulative [5.0]

The Cumulative tiebreak adds together Jose's running score after each round. Early wins count more, because they carry forward into every later round's total.

Round	Result	Score After Round
1	0.0	0.0
2	1.0	1.0
3	0.0	1.0
4	0.0	1.0
5	1.0	2.0
Cumulative		5.0

O - Opponent's Cumulative [25.5]

The Opponent's Cumulative adds together the Cumulative tiebreak of every opponent Jose Hernandez has played.

Round	Opponent	Opponent's Cumulative
1	Sharvi Nakkala	10.0
2	Oscar Williams	0.0
3	Jacob Zeng	11.0
4	Apolo Simon	9.5
