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

Detailed breakdown of how Graham'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 [11.5]

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

Graham'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	Melanie Lira	1.0	Discarded
2	Diego Morales	2.0	Counted
3	Angela Pan	4.0	Counted
4	Gavin Hanna	3.0	Counted
5	sammy stanage	2.5	Counted
Modified Mean		11.5

S - Solkoff [12.5]

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

Round	Opponent	Opponent's Score
1	Melanie Lira	1.0
2	Diego Morales	2.0
3	Angela Pan	4.0
4	Gavin Hanna	3.0
5	sammy stanage	2.5
Solkoff		12.5

C - Cumulative [12.0]

The Cumulative tiebreak adds together Graham'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

1	Melanie Lira	2.5
2	Diego Morales	6.0
3	Angela Pan	13.0
