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

Detailed breakdown of how Bryan'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 [15.0]

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

Bryan'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	Marian Ramirez	3.0	Counted
2	Max Guerra	2.0	Discarded
3	Arnav Guduri	4.0	Counted
4	Ethan Wu	3.0	Counted
5	Harsh Mali	5.0	Counted
Modified Mean		15.0

S - Solkoff [17.0]

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

Round	Opponent	Opponent's Score
1	Marian Ramirez	3.0
2	Max Guerra	2.0
3	Arnav Guduri	4.0
4	Ethan Wu	3.0
5	Harsh Mali	5.0
Solkoff		17.0

C - Cumulative [14.0]

The Cumulative tiebreak adds together Bryan'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	1.0	3.0
4	1.0	4.0
5	0.0	4.0
Cumulative		14.0
