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 [10.0]

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

Joshua'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	Michael Franzese	5.0	Discarded
2	Thaddeus Clarke	2.0	Counted
3	Maxi Cone	2.0	Counted
4	Michelle Su	3.0	Counted
5	CATHERINE MAO	3.0	Counted
Modified Mean		10.0

S - Solkoff [15.0]

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

Round	Opponent	Opponent's Score
1	Michael Franzese	5.0
2	Thaddeus Clarke	2.0
3	Maxi Cone	2.0
4	Michelle Su	3.0
5	CATHERINE MAO	3.0
Solkoff		15.0

C - Cumulative [7.0]

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.

Round	Result	Score After Round
1	0.0	0.0
2	1.0	1.0
3	1.0	2.0
4	0.0	2.0
