Some points here:

  1. + FT is very similar to Swiss and does run at a smooth pace. You know exactly what time the next round starts and the schedule rarely has long waits.
  2. - FT takes longer to run. Instead of one or two longer matches, you have to play 3 or 4 shorter matches. That takes more time and you usually have to play more hours.
  3. The tournament in Cyprus may have some ~400 entrants, but they run the main over 3 days instead of 2.
  4. The tournament coming up in Cyprus is NOT FT. It is single elim, progressive conso, traditional LC (LC starts Sunday at 12PM).
