Expertise:  I can answer any questions about RULINGS only with the Yu-Gi-Oh English TCG. I get my information from the official source, so if you tell me something that contradicts the official rules, I will give you the exact ruling(or similar situation) with explanation. My advice to you is get the rulings on every single card in YOUR DECK before starting to duel!

A good site to look for rulings would be(now includes The Duelist Genesis!):

UpperDeck's Official Rulings

Gemini Monster FAQ

Forbidden/Limited List (LAST UPDATED: September 1, 2008)

I CANNOT do deck fixes, as I pay attention to the rules more so that everyone plays it right. If you ask me for deck fixes, I will immediately sent it to the Question Pool(No, this is not rejecting your question).

UPDATE: Downed to 2 questions per day. Severe connection problems. Be clear and use punctuation. Nothing related to deck fixes/checks/ratings or card prices/trades/whereabouts.

NOTE: This should not happen, but I'll post it here anyway: Due to limited connectivity to the internet/personal problems, I am terribly sorry if it takes me more than 24 hours to answer your question. If you send "non-ruling"-related questions, do not expect a reply.

Experience in the area
I know the rulings.. and I only get them from the official source. Even then, some people will do anything to win(even if it goes against the rules), such as arguing who's right and wrong.

Education/Credentials
Graduated from high school and college.

What do you like about this subject?  It's more important to play it right before you worry about winning. Even then, 50% of the time, this quote applies: "You can't win without playing illegally at least once during the duel."
Something interesting about this subject that others may not know:  One word can change the whole meaning. This applies to rulings and erratas. I'm here to patch that up with the latest information.
