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

Detailed breakdown of how Michael'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 [7.5]

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

Michael's score (0.0 of 5.0 possible) is less than 50% of the possible points, so the highest opponent score is discarded.
