This quote says it all IMO.

I don't mind losing, but I'd rather be tactically outwitted by a superior opponent than beaten simply because my opponent's list is tweaked towards destroying my army.
Pretty much, in a case where I play games that are lik 1000 pts, where I have about 1600, I'll make my list first, admittedly slightly geared, but i'd be something I'd be willing to take to a tournament, main because still dont know what my friend will be doing, so I make my lists 90-100% all comers and maybe 10% tailored.

Not to say that people who do tailor thjier list are unskilled.
