Default Do you play LIMIT MTTs?

I predominantly play No-Limit tournaments for a change of pace, but I know I lack No-Limit skills. I thought I should be playing more LIMIT tournaments...since that's what I mostly know.
To all you successful limit cash game players....do you also play limit tournaments? If so, how successful are you and do you recommend? If this has already been discussed at length, a link to a good thread would be greatly appreciated (I tried searching).

I absolutely love Limit MTTs, they are my favorite thing in all of poker. There are a couple decent threads in the MTT forum, but they are hard to find. I'll give it a brief try, but I remember being stymied by the search engine before.

at most sites, I think it takes more skill to win a limit MTT simply because there is more post flop play. Sometimes final tables become crapshoots but its usually better than NLHE.

At the same time, there is probably less dead money in limit.

Not true at all. There are a very large number of skilled NL players. Just not that many skilled limit players that also play MTTs. Seriously, it is so obvious when you play these tournies how bad people are.

What adjustments do you make from your cash game? I would think none when your stack is large compared to the blinds (>25x)....but what about when you are crippled?

excellent question. I've been playing NL MTTs (and O8 PL MTTs) but it's ages since I played a limit tourney. And that was by accident. anyone help out here?
