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

Detailed breakdown of how Shepherd'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 [14.5]

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

Shepherd's score (4.0 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	Isabella Alvarado	1.0	Discarded
2	Trinity Harris	3.0	Counted
3	Asher Lippe	4.0	Counted
4	Kasen Piel	3.0	Counted
5	Aarnav Penagaluru	4.5	Counted
Modified Mean		14.5

S - Solkoff [15.5]

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

Round	Opponent	Opponent's Score
1	Isabella Alvarado	1.0
2	Trinity Harris	3.0
3	Asher Lippe	4.0
4	Kasen Piel	3.0
5	Aarnav Penagaluru	4.5
Solkoff		15.5

C - Cumulative [14.0]

The Cumulative tiebreak adds together Shepherd'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	1.0	2.0
3	1.0	3.0
4	1.0	4.0
