I'm a graduate student and I have a bit of a problem with my advisor. He gave me some papers to referee, and these papers were submitted to a conference to which I have also submitted a paper. The problem is that these papers are very similar to the paper which I submitted, and so they will be competing directly against my paper. I told him that I could not act as an impartial reviewer, and I asked to have someone else review the papers, but he refused. (He is also the conference co-chairman). He said that it was perfectly acceptable for me to review the papers, but I don't believe him. What do I do? I was thinking of refusing to review the papers by not submitting a report, and just let the deadline slip.
