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

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

Edward'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	Aadhi Kannan	2.5	Counted
2	Elias Kim	1.0	Discarded
3	Brayan Hernandez	2.0	Counted
4	Gael Gonzalez	4.0	Counted
5	Henry Ferris	2.5	Counted
Modified Mean		11.0

S - Solkoff [12.0]

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

Round	Opponent	Opponent's Score
1	Aadhi Kannan	2.5
2	Elias Kim	1.0
3	Brayan Hernandez	2.0
4	Gael Gonzalez	4.0
5	Henry Ferris	2.5
Solkoff		12.0

C - Cumulative [8.0]

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

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