Question
Okay if you can tell me what site I can go to that is really good about card ruling that would be great. But here's my question. It's a question about chaining effects invovling Light and Darkness Dragon.  Suppose your oppenent activated a card while you control LaDD face up(atk2800/def2400) and a Book of Moon face down in your S/T zone. After LaDD negates on chain 2 you decide to chain 3 with Book of Moon flipping LaDD face down. Does the first card on the chain resolve, since LaDD is face down after chain 3. Sorry if it was confusing at all and I hope you can answer. Thank You.

Answer
RULING: "If the second effect of “Light and Darkness Dragon” is activated and an effect is chained that removes “Light and Darkness Dragon” from the field or flips it face-down, the effect of “Light and Darkness Dragon” will disappear and the activation of the Spell, Trap, or effect of the Effect Monster will not be negated."

So yes, the first card will resolve.

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(updated as new boosters are released):

Rulings

Forbidden/Limited List (UPDATED: September 1, 2010)

I will ONLY fix Final Countdown/Self-Destruct Button decks, as I pay attention to the rules more so that everyone plays it right. If you ask me for competitive deck fixes, I will immediately sent it to the Question Pool(No, this is not rejecting your question).

NEWS: Konami reclaimed all operational and business aspects of Yu-Gi-Oh.

Konami regains control of Yu-Gi-Oh. (PDF Document - Press Release)

UPDATE: Crappy connection put my account on hiatus and prevented me from answering past questions.. -.- I can't tell if this will happen again, but hopefully it won't. Be clear and use punctuation. Nothing related to deck fixes/checks/ratings (except for the ones listed above) 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.
