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

Detailed breakdown of how Austin'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 [12.0]

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

Austin'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	Kevin Fong	4.0	Discarded
2	Ethan Mei	3.5	Counted
3	Taran Thota	3.0	Counted
4	Bye	—	Not counted
5	Helen Luo	1.5	Counted
Modified Mean		8.0

S - Solkoff [12.0]

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

Round	Opponent	Opponent's Score
1	Kevin Fong	4.0
2	Ethan Mei	3.5
3	Taran Thota	3.0
4	Bye — not counted	—
5	Helen Luo	1.5
Solkoff		12.0

C - Cumulative [3.0]

The Cumulative tiebreak adds together Austin'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	0.0	0.0
3	0.0	0.0
4	1.0 (bye)	1.0
