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

Detailed breakdown of how Elias' 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 [13.5]

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

Elias' score (3.0 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	Steven Arredondo	1.5	Discarded
2	Luke Francis	2.5	Counted
3	Joey Kremer	5.0	Counted
4	Robert Nichols	2.0	Counted
5	Arjun Somavarpu	4.0	Counted
Modified Mean		13.5

S - Solkoff [15.0]

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

Round	Opponent	Opponent's Score
1	Steven Arredondo	1.5
2	Luke Francis	2.5
3	Joey Kremer	5.0
4	Robert Nichols	2.0
5	Arjun Somavarpu	4.0
Solkoff		15.0

C - Cumulative [11.0]

The Cumulative tiebreak adds together Elias' 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
5	0.0	3.0
Cumulative		11.0

O - Opponent's Cumulative [44.5]

1	Steven Arredondo	3.0
2	Luke Francis	7.5
3	Joey Kremer	15.0
4	Robert Nichols	8.0
