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

Detailed breakdown of how Nolan'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 [8.5]

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

Nolan's score (1.5 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	Bye	—	Not counted
2	Hunter Niemuth	2.5	Counted
3	Madison Crowder	3.0	Counted
4	Dylan Sandau	4.0	Discarded
5	Payton Storey	3.0	Counted
Modified Mean		8.5

S - Solkoff [12.5]

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

Round	Opponent	Opponent's Score
1	Bye — not counted	—
2	Hunter Niemuth	2.5
3	Madison Crowder	3.0
4	Dylan Sandau	4.0
5	Payton Storey	3.0
Solkoff		12.5

C - Cumulative [7.0]

The Cumulative tiebreak adds together Nolan'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	1.0 (bye)	1.0
2	0.5	1.5
3	0.0	1.5
4	0.0	1.5
5	0.0	1.5
Cumulative		7.0

O - Opponent's Cumulative [25.5]

The Opponent's Cumulative adds together the Cumulative tiebreak of every opponent Nolan Niemuth has played.

3	Madison Crowder	9.0
4	Dylan Sandau	12.0
