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

Detailed breakdown of how Parker'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 [16.0]

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

Parker's score (2.5 of 5.0 possible) is exactly 50% of the possible points, so every opponent score is counted.

Round	Opponent	Opponent's Score	Counted?
1	Samuel Adams	2.5	Counted
2	Vicente Mainez	3.0	Counted
3	AMARTYA JAMI	3.0	Counted
4	Srivats Sudarshan	3.5	Counted
5	SEAN TEOH	4.0	Counted
Modified Mean		16.0

S - Solkoff [16.0]

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

Round	Opponent	Opponent's Score
1	Samuel Adams	2.5
2	Vicente Mainez	3.0
3	AMARTYA JAMI	3.0
4	Srivats Sudarshan	3.5
5	SEAN TEOH	4.0
Solkoff		16.0

C - Cumulative [8.0]

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

2	1.0	1.0
3	1.0	2.0
4	0.5	2.5
