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

Detailed breakdown of how Alexander'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 [8.0]

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

Alexander's score (2.0 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	Urjith Mishra	4.0	Discarded
2	Zachary Miller	2.0	Counted
3	Adriana Islas	1.5	Counted
4	Jade Skye	1.5	Counted
5	Christopher Fu	3.0	Counted
Modified Mean		8.0

S - Solkoff [12.0]

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

Round	Opponent	Opponent's Score
1	Urjith Mishra	4.0
2	Zachary Miller	2.0
3	Adriana Islas	1.5
4	Jade Skye	1.5
5	Christopher Fu	3.0
Solkoff		12.0

C - Cumulative [5.0]

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