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

Detailed breakdown of how Didier'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 [8.5]

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

Didier'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	Jose Melgarejo	3.0	Counted
2	Cristian Peralez	1.0	Counted
3	Kaitlyn Dobbs	1.0	Counted
4	Asher Leonhart	1.5	Counted
5	Micah Norman	2.0	Counted
Modified Mean		8.5

S - Solkoff [8.5]

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

Round	Opponent	Opponent's Score
1	Jose Melgarejo	3.0
2	Cristian Peralez	1.0
3	Kaitlyn Dobbs	1.0
4	Asher Leonhart	1.5
5	Micah Norman	2.0
Solkoff		8.5

C - Cumulative [4.5]

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