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

Detailed breakdown of how Joshua'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 [12.5]

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

Joshua's 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	KASANDRA SIEGMAN	1.0	Discarded
2	Jack Griffiths	3.0	Counted
3	Troy Messina	4.5	Counted
4	Zen Ayala	3.0	Counted
5	Josiah Macpherson	2.0	Counted
Modified Mean		12.5

S - Solkoff [13.5]

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

Round	Opponent	Opponent's Score
1	KASANDRA SIEGMAN	1.0
2	Jack Griffiths	3.0
3	Troy Messina	4.5
4	Zen Ayala	3.0
5	Josiah Macpherson	2.0

C - Cumulative [10.0]

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