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

Detailed breakdown of how Hunter'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 [7.0]

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

Hunter's score (2.5 of 5.0 possible) is exactly 50% of the possible points, so every opponent score is counted.

Round	Opponent	Opponent's Score	Counted?
1	Madison Crowder	3.0	Counted
2	Nolan Niemuth	1.5	Counted
3	Jeremiah Brooks	2.5	Counted
4	Bye	—	Not counted
5	Rene Vega	1.0	Counted
Modified Mean		8.0

S - Solkoff [8.0]

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

Round	Opponent	Opponent's Score
1	Madison Crowder	3.0
2	Nolan Niemuth	1.5
3	Jeremiah Brooks	2.5
4	Bye — not counted	—
5	Rene Vega	1.0
Solkoff		8.0

C - Cumulative [5.0]

The Cumulative tiebreak adds together Hunter'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 (bye)	1.5
