NB Canyon Chess Tournament This tournament completed March 23rd, 2019.

Detailed breakdown of how John'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 [11.5]

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

John'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	Jake Wadle	4.0	Counted
2	Emma Morales	1.5	Counted
3	Grace Wilkinson	1.0	Counted
4	Eli Hjort	1.5	Counted
5	Eric Alvarado	3.5	Counted
Modified Mean		11.5

S - Solkoff [11.5]

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

Round	Opponent	Opponent's Score
1	Jake Wadle	4.0
2	Emma Morales	1.5
3	Grace Wilkinson	1.0
4	Eli Hjort	1.5
5	Eric Alvarado	3.5
Solkoff		11.5

C - Cumulative [8.0]

The Cumulative tiebreak adds together John'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	0.0	0.0
2	1.0	1.0
3	1.0	2.0
4	0.5	2.5
5	0.0	2.5
Cumulative		8.0

O - Opponent's Cumulative [34.5]

The Opponent's Cumulative adds together the Cumulative tiebreak of every opponent John Herrera has played.

Round	Opponent	Opponent's Cumulative
1	Jake Wadle	14.0
2	Emma Morales	2.5
3	Grace Wilkinson	5.0
