Well, I discovered last season at Ayr, that if you make your first five or six moves quickly, (there under 30 seconds each), you have more time than you started with.

What are the reasons for some disliking incremental time controls?

I feel that they favour the stronger player, I feel that they allow them to wriggle out of what would normally have been a lost position. I will never enter any tournament which has these time controls.
I have played enough of these games online to feel that they are unfair and in my opinion definitely favour the stronger player.
