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

Detailed breakdown of how Zhiling'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 [12.5]

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

Zhiling'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	Antonio Vidaurri	0.0	Counted
2	Ray Zhang	4.0	Counted
3	Kendal Peter	3.0	Counted
4	James Beverly	1.5	Counted
5	Austin Mei	4.0	Counted
Modified Mean		12.5

S - Solkoff [12.5]

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

Round	Opponent	Opponent's Score
1	Antonio Vidaurri	0.0
2	Ray Zhang	4.0
3	Kendal Peter	3.0
4	James Beverly	1.5
5	Austin Mei	4.0
Solkoff		12.5

C - Cumulative [9.0]

The Cumulative tiebreak adds together Zhiling'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	0.0	1.0
3	1.0	2.0
4	0.5	2.5
5	0.0	2.5
Cumulative		9.0
