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 Light of Destruction!):

UpperDeck's Official Rulings

Gemini Monster FAQ

Forbidden/Limited List (LAST UPDATED: May 9, 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: Accepting seven questions. 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
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.

Question
Dear Patrick, I have a lot of questions for you, hopefully you are willing to answer them all. Here goes:

1. I use DNA Surgery and choose MACHINE. Then I activate Limiter Removal. After that my opponent destroys my DNA Surgery. Do my Monsters still have double ATK ?

2. Gemini Monsters count as Normal Monsters in your Graveyard, what about in your Deck and Hand ? Are they Effect or Normal ?

3. Dark Blade (opponent) attacks Decoy Dragon (mine). I Special Summon Blue-Eyes White Dragon. Can I use Staunch Defender so all of his Monsters attack Blue-Eyes ?

4. Dark Magician (opponent) attacks Makyura the Destructor (mine).In his Main Phase 2 he uses Knight's Title to Special Summon Dark Magician's Knight. Can I use Torrential Tribute or Compulsory Evacuation Device before the effect of Dark Magician's Knight is activated?

5. Can I use Backs to the Wall and decrease my Life Points to 100 if I do not have Six Samurai Monsters in my Graveyard ? (QUOTE: Special Summon as many ..... as possible.)

6. To Summon Fenrir you must remove 2 WATER Monsters in your Graveyard from play. QUOTE: This card cannot be Normal Summoned or Set. This card can only be Special Summoned by .....
Now, can I Normal Summon Chaos Sorcerer or Aqua Spirit?
These cards say ; This card can only be Special Summoned by ..... , but do not mention they cannot be Normal Summoned or Set.

Thank you very much for hopefully answer all of my questions!

Answer
1. Yes, because Limiter Removal already resolved.

2. They're Effect.

3. No, since Staunch Defender cannot be activated during the Damage Step.

4. Yes, if priority is not declared.

5. RULING: "You cannot activate this card if there are no "Six Samurai" monsters in your Graveyard."

6. You just contradicted yourself. It does mention it can't be Normal Summoned or Set. You even posted that yourself. =)
