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

Detailed breakdown of how Mason'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 Mason Schuster has played, then discards one of them depending on how Mason Schuster is doing.

Mason's score (3.0 of 5.0 possible) is more than 50% of the possible points, so the lowest opponent score is discarded.

Round	Opponent	Opponent's Score	Counted?
1	Dalena Do	0.0	Discarded
2	Austin Garcia	1.0	Counted
3	Saaketh Boyapalle	4.0	Counted
4	Roger Spear	4.0	Counted
5	Paul Rodriguez	2.0	Counted
Modified Mean		11.0

S - Solkoff [11.0]

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

Round	Opponent	Opponent's Score
1	Dalena Do	0.0
2	Austin Garcia	1.0
3	Saaketh Boyapalle	4.0
4	Roger Spear	4.0
5	Paul Rodriguez	2.0
Solkoff		11.0

C - Cumulative [10.0]

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

1	1.0	1.0
2	1.0	2.0
3	0.0	2.0
4	0.0	2.0
