See the following table for your section. Players are sorted by their current standings after the given round. Each row shows a player's information, results for each round, total score, tiebreak values, and Pair number (rating order). Results for each round show each game's result and the opponent's rank in this table. Common game results include W = Win, D = Draw, L = Loss, X = forfeit win, F = Forfeit loss, B = full-point Bye, H = Half-point bye, and U = zero-point bye. Tiebreaks (TB) are calculated to determine the first among equals, essentially who had the hardest opponents. Tiebreaks are needed only for indivisible prizes like trophies; money prizes are split. Swiss System tournaments with tiebreaks often use M = Modified median, S = Solkoff, C = Cumulative score, O = Opposition's cumulative score, and Z = coin flip (random number), in that order. The first four are standard USCF tie breaks without using speed playoff games, but playoff games are often used among perfect scores. If the standard tiebreaks fail to break the tie, then either Random (Z) is used in the last round or Pair number is used before the last round. For more details on these tiebreak methods, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tie-breaking_in_Swiss-system_tournaments. This tournament's individual standings with post-tournament ratings are also provided at https://www.uschess.org/msa/XtblMain.php?201511149622, but it does not use the official tournament tiebreaks, instead using post-tournament ratings to break ties.
