There's usually a person or people you turn to for advice on serious matters and they're reliable enough to keep you coming back. There's people like Danny Dyer that can't be taken seriously. Finally, there's some people you really shouldn't ask.
For army building advice I've found a few places that dispense solid advice - YTTH and 3++ are amongst the best. I'm sure there are brilliant painting and modelling sites but I'll stick to what I know. There is one place though, that continues to astound me with the poor quality of articles on general gaming matters: BOLS. There's a few people there that I'll read but on whole I tend to avoid the place. It must be the case that some of the lads are getting tanked up before they post stuff up or they're saying something controversial just to generate site traffic ala Stelek. The irony...
Anywho, I'm putting up some lists to see what I can come up with for tournaments before I pop them up on other blogs for advice from guys I know aren't drinking the Bols vodka.
