Experimented with fixed on my old Kona a few years ago. Vertical drop-outs so chain tension was a problem, I used a half link to get it pretty good but as soon as the chain started to wear it became slack until it started to skip. After a few months I eventually reverted to single speed with a chain tensioner.
