Key to Crosstables

A = Player’s score.

B = Number of rated opponents played (N).

C = Score against rated opponents (W).

D = Average rating of rated opponents (Rc). Not shown for unrated players if B is less than 3 or Score is less than 1.

E = Rated players:   Sum of expected score for each rated opponent (We).

F = Rated players:   Actual score less expected score. This must be multiplied by K to get change of rating. Unrated players: FIDE Performance rating.

K is the development coefficient. K is 20 except in a month where a junior player has outperformed expectation, then the k factor is 40

T1 = Tie Break using Sum Of Progressive Scores
