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

Detailed breakdown of how Ella'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 [6.5]

The Modified Mean adds up the scores of every opponent Ella Zou-Bao has played, then discards one of them depending on how Ella Zou-Bao is doing.

Ella's score (0.5 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	Hansika Aavula	1.0	Counted
2	Abhiram Borra	2.0	Counted
3	Erik Samora	2.5	Discarded
4	Ralph Lara	2.5	Counted
5	Shawn Mitchell	1.0	Counted
Modified Mean		6.5

S - Solkoff [9.0]

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

Round	Opponent	Opponent's Score
1	Hansika Aavula	1.0
2	Abhiram Borra	2.0
3	Erik Samora	2.5
4	Ralph Lara	2.5
5	Shawn Mitchell	1.0
Solkoff		9.0

C - Cumulative [1.5]

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