Narrative:
After announcing downwind, base and 2 final position on the local unicom frequency, and while I was on short final, an small aircraft Y taxied into position and stopped on the runway and held for about a min. At this point I didn't know whether he was going to hold while I landed or attempt to takeoff in front of me. When about 100 ft AGL I moved to the right of the runway and abeam the small aircraft Y, I applied full power to start the go around. For some unknown reason, the engine did not accelerate to full power. By this time I was in front of and to the right of the small aircraft Y, and saw that he was slowing down, so I sideslipped and landed on runway 33. The small aircraft Y discontinued his takeoff and exited the runway at the first taxiway. This incident began when the small aircraft Y taxied into position on the runway when an aircraft was on final approach, and could have been avoided by waiting for the landing aircraft before taking the active. The second part of the incident would not have occurred if the small aircraft Y engine had accelerated normally. All parties concerned (myself, my instructor, and the 2 pilots in the small aircraft Y) discussed the incident after the small aircraft Y completed its training flight.

Title: SMA WITH SPI ON FINAL HAS ACFT TAXI ONTO RWY AND STOP. APPLIES PWR FOR GAR, NO RESPONSE. SIDE SLIPS TO LNDG.
Narrative: AFTER ANNOUNCING DOWNWIND, BASE AND 2 FINAL POS ON THE LCL UNICOM FREQ, AND WHILE I WAS ON SHORT FINAL, AN SMA Y TAXIED INTO POS AND STOPPED ON THE RWY AND HELD FOR ABOUT A MIN. AT THIS POINT I DIDN'T KNOW WHETHER HE WAS GOING TO HOLD WHILE I LANDED OR ATTEMPT TO TKOF IN FRONT OF ME. WHEN ABOUT 100 FT AGL I MOVED TO THE R OF THE RWY AND ABEAM THE SMA Y, I APPLIED FULL PWR TO START THE GAR. FOR SOME UNKNOWN REASON, THE ENG DID NOT ACCELERATE TO FULL PWR. BY THIS TIME I WAS IN FRONT OF AND TO THE R OF THE SMA Y, AND SAW THAT HE WAS SLOWING DOWN, SO I SIDESLIPPED AND LANDED ON RWY 33. THE SMA Y DISCONTINUED HIS TKOF AND EXITED THE RWY AT THE FIRST TAXIWAY. THIS INCIDENT BEGAN WHEN THE SMA Y TAXIED INTO POS ON THE RWY WHEN AN ACFT WAS ON FINAL APCH, AND COULD HAVE BEEN AVOIDED BY WAITING FOR THE LNDG ACFT BEFORE TAKING THE ACTIVE. THE SECOND PART OF THE INCIDENT WOULD NOT HAVE OCCURRED IF THE SMA Y ENG HAD ACCELERATED NORMALLY. ALL PARTIES CONCERNED (MYSELF, MY INSTRUCTOR, AND THE 2 PLTS IN THE SMA Y) DISCUSSED THE INCIDENT AFTER THE SMA Y COMPLETED ITS TRAINING FLT.
