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

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 [9.5]

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

Michael's score (2.0 of 5.0 possible) is less than 50% of the possible points, so the highest opponent score is discarded.

Round	Opponent	Opponent's Score	Counted?
1	Troy Messina	4.5	Discarded
2	KASANDRA SIEGMAN	1.0	Counted
3	Jacob Covarrubias	1.5	Counted
4	Gavin Babcock	4.0	Counted
5	John Kelemen	3.0	Counted
Modified Mean		9.5

S - Solkoff [14.0]

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

Round	Opponent	Opponent's Score
1	Troy Messina	4.5
2	KASANDRA SIEGMAN	1.0
3	Jacob Covarrubias	1.5
4	Gavin Babcock	4.0
5	John Kelemen	3.0
Solkoff		14.0

C - Cumulative [7.0]

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