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

Detailed breakdown of how Darshan '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 [11.0]

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

Darshan 's score (4.0 of 5.0 possible) is more than 50% of the possible points, so the lowest opponent score is discarded.

2	Luis Gonzalez	4.0	Counted
3	Sanjeev Raman	2.0	Counted
4	Leif Johnson	2.0	Counted

Modified Mean		11.0

S - Solkoff [12.0]

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