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

Detailed breakdown of how Mason'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 [14.0]

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

Mason's score (3.5 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	Jayden Taylor	2.0	Discarded
2	Andrew Lippe	2.5	Counted
3	Robert Henderson	4.0	Counted
4	Benjamin Kelemen	3.0	Counted
5	Troy Messina	4.5	Counted
Modified Mean		14.0

S - Solkoff [16.0]

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

Round	Opponent	Opponent's Score
1	Jayden Taylor	2.0
2	Andrew Lippe	2.5
3	Robert Henderson	4.0
4	Benjamin Kelemen	3.0
5	Troy Messina	4.5
Solkoff		16.0

C - Cumulative [11.5]

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

1	0.5	0.5
2	1.0	1.5
3	1.0	2.5
4	1.0	3.5
