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 [6.5]

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

John'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	Owen McNamara	3.0	Discarded
2	Tristin Lopez-Hernandez	1.5	Counted
3	Logan DeGolier	1.5	Counted
4	Lillian Longley	1.5	Counted
5	Jayden Taylor	2.0	Counted
Modified Mean		6.5

S - Solkoff [9.5]

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

Round	Opponent	Opponent's Score
1	Owen McNamara	3.0
2	Tristin Lopez-Hernandez	1.5
3	Logan DeGolier	1.5
4	Lillian Longley	1.5
5	Jayden Taylor	2.0
Solkoff		9.5

C - Cumulative [4.5]

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	0.5	0.5
3	0.0	0.5
4	1.0	1.5
5	0.5	2.0
Cumulative		4.5

O - Opponent's Cumulative [27.5]

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

Round	Opponent	Opponent's Cumulative
1	Owen McNamara	10.0
2	Tristin Lopez-Hernandez	3.0
3	Logan DeGolier	5.0
