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

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

Gael '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	Katarina Espino	1.5	Discarded
2	Ayan Nagulapally	3.0	Counted
3	Ethan Wu	3.0	Counted
4	Edward Bao	3.0	Counted
5	Vishnu Muthuraman	3.0	Counted
Modified Mean		12.0

S - Solkoff [13.5]

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

Round	Opponent	Opponent's Score
1	Katarina Espino	1.5
2	Ayan Nagulapally	3.0
3	Ethan Wu	3.0
4	Edward Bao	3.0
5	Vishnu Muthuraman	3.0

C - Cumulative [12.0]

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