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

Detailed breakdown of how Nathaniel '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 [11.0]

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

Nathaniel '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	Caleb Carrillo	5.0	Counted
2	Bye	—	Not counted
3	Matthew Medelin	2.5	Counted
4	Emilio Orozco Hernandez	2.5	Counted
5	Dexter Worden	3.5	Counted
Modified Mean		13.5

S - Solkoff [13.5]

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

Round	Opponent	Opponent's Score
1	Caleb Carrillo	5.0
2	Bye — not counted	—
3	Matthew Medelin	2.5
4	Emilio Orozco Hernandez	2.5
5	Dexter Worden	3.5
Solkoff		13.5

C - Cumulative [7.5]

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