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

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

Marshall's score (4.0 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	Joaquin Mainez	0.5	Discarded
2	Surya Venigalla	3.0	Counted
3	Jaganaath Ramesh	4.0	Counted
4	Jishnu Saani	2.0	Counted
5	Nadia Abdulbaki	3.0	Counted
Modified Mean		12.0

S - Solkoff [12.5]

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

Round	Opponent	Opponent's Score
1	Joaquin Mainez	0.5
2	Surya Venigalla	3.0
3	Jaganaath Ramesh	4.0
4	Jishnu Saani	2.0
5	Nadia Abdulbaki	3.0
Solkoff		12.5

C - Cumulative [12.0]

The Cumulative tiebreak adds together Marshall'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	1.0	1.0
2	1.0	2.0
3	0.0	2.0
4	1.0	3.0
