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

Detailed breakdown of how Marcus' 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 [13.5]

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

Marcus' score (3.0 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 Rodriguez	2.0	Counted
2	Dakota Fisher	4.5	Counted
3	Fredy Flores Fernandez	1.5	Discarded
4	John Kelemen	3.0	Counted
5	Gavin Babcock	4.0	Counted
Modified Mean		13.5

S - Solkoff [15.0]

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

1	Isabella Rodriguez	2.0
2	Dakota Fisher	4.5
3	Fredy Flores Fernandez	1.5
4	John Kelemen	3.0
5	Gavin Babcock	4.0

C - Cumulative [10.0]

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