Default SNAP ON HUNGER STRIKE, SNUBBED BY IMAC (TANK)

As the title says, I was snubbed by Mr Tank the CD of an IMAC event, I was very disappointed and stunned.
After all the preparation and practice that I have been doing, I am crushed, I was inspired by my role model Mr Mad Max to fly and compete in IMAC, now it is all history.
I wonder where my friends were to support me today, Craig (CBK07) had family business, sure he's probably in on the snubbing and Bob Trueworthy (Bob) went to MD to watch a NASCAR race with his fiancé, yea sure number 3 is more important than a friend in need, a big thanks to Rolling Harrier for his help, sorry bro all your training went to waste.
Well the reason I was given was that I am too loud, I am not sure what they're talking about, is it my mouth or my planes?
Anyway I am considering legal action and will take it straight to the supreme court, I will also be receiving counseling tomorrow.
Guys I need your support.

Snap, I am so sorry for your loss. I know you were really looking forward to doing IMAC this season. And we practiced and praticed: Smooth, straight downlines: Incredible positive snaps. These will never to be seen due to the rantings of one of our buds!!! NOISE NOISE NOISE! Yet at the smae field this IMAC contest will be run the same group of members are having a WARBIRD fly-in and lifting the noise restrictions. Tsk tsk I say. I'm so sad and disapointed you are being descriminated against.
Keep a stiff upper lip.

Snap.....Go figure......all that effort and then they don't let you fly. Where do they think all that power comes from.........

It's the NOISE guys, that gives Elie his power.

I stand with you, my friend. Let him fly.....

Thanks Joe
I appreciate your support, I am beginning to think it's not the noise that is a problem, I think they are worried about me kicking their butts.

I am still hungry.

Snap.

I'm with your version of events mate. I think that TANK character is too busy protecting his own a$$ and the noise is just an excuse to keep a top up and coming pilot out of the prize money.

Likely the the two DA150's that were up for grabs for your class as prizes are happily residing under TANKS bed by now.


PS: If you guys don't stop having such a great time at these events I'm sending the fun police next time.

Shortbus, thanks, I am down even more now, you and Tank are evils.
Kiwi mate, thanks for your support, I think you're right except for one thing, what's residing under Tanks bed are 2 DA 170's and not 150's.

The reason I am on a hunger strike is to get them to change their mind and let me compete and kick some butt, talking about chicken makes very hungry, you will see me at IMAC events, that's a promise, I will prove to you then that Chicken and Dinasours are not related.
