Due to a certain Shadowy author's penchant for inflicting evil happenings upon Cody, I hereby inaugurate CLF, the Cody Liberation Front! However, to make it more pronounceable, we can call it CLiFf, been as cliffs are synonomous with Shadowgod. .

Cody is an endearing character, though one with his share of troubles. The poor guy deserves better than to have all forms of trials and tribulations thrown his way! Dreams & Cliffed Wings is surely shaping up to be dramatic. Save Cody, free him from the dark Deity's clutches! Yes, save him from Shadowgod!

Sign up now... Save Cody!!!

HAHA

And what if Shadowy liberates Cody in that way? NO!!!

But I want Cody to live happily ever after. Please? I want him to have a nice sweet and utter-charming boyfriend! And a life without much obstacles and which ones which he can easily overcome!

*signs*

Ieshwar

.............CJ your tooooooooooooo much!!

I think this thread is simply Load Goatamort's plan to deflect attention from his evil plans regarding Eric. We should not let him get away with it! Cody will eventually live happily ever after. That I can say with 99% certainty.

Awww, but the Cody Liberation Front (CLF) has high and noble goals; to allow Cody to have a happy life, free from the clutches of some Dark Deity, who so torments him.

Come, join me, save Cody!!!

funny ya know I just sent a pm on this very issue I think you will find it most agreeable.... Now where is Joe when you need him

And I totally agree!

I, and Shadowgod, think that CLF needs to have a bit added to make it pronounceable. Like SPiCE.

So, I hereby change the name to both reflect this and honor the author, and inaugurate CLiFf! Yes, CLiFf!

After all, when one thinks of cliffs, one thinks of Shadowgod, so this was a most excellent idea!!!
Thanks Steve!

And who else other then our king should lead it.

ACK!!

Well, I've updated my sig, but shadowy one, you are known far and wide for your eeevil cliffhangers (such as the one in Dreams & Cliffed Wings 3, which as your latest chapter means that your readers are HANGING) so, of course, we just want to save Cody from your eeevil machinations!

..............Indeed, we need two crowns here

Let us not forget Chapters 19 and 30 of Let the Music Play. Those cliffhangers of yours led to your coronation as King of Evil Cliffhangers!

I beg to differ! Even if they were, for some inexplicable reason, perceived as cliffhangers, LTMP 30 could not have been considered; indeed, it posted well AFTER the voting was done so it could not have been. LTMP 19, though, posted on Christmas eve, so might have been a factor, assuming there was a cliffie in it (If so, it must have been slipped in during the beta )

However, this thread is dedicated saving Cody from Shadowgod's cliffhangers and other horrendous trials... Poor Cody, he's getting such a lot thrown at him. Save Cody!!

Chapter 30 will help with your nomination in 2008. As for 19, that was the most evil cliffhanger I have ever seen on this site. It was so earthshaking that I posted for the very first time because of it! Your evil cliffhangers are responsible for my prolific posting. You created a monster.

Yes, I feel sorry for Cody. He is mistreated almost as much as Eric.

.........Aha! I now see the root of your problem "the devil goat made me do it"

Well, he is responsible for the first post. After that, I started to post more and more. The first order of business was no longer being a newbie. Then I wanted to get to 100 posts, and the rest is history.

Getting back on topic, I think Cody really needs some love in his life. Save Cody with love!

.......Cody still has a lot of issues to deal, after he gets done "beating himself up" with a quicky. Joe will prove to be a valuable friend and help Cody thru all this mess, that said, I don't think they will be romantically involved........But the Shadowgd has been known to twist the tale with cliffies.

I still think Joe may end up as Cody's love interest. Having said that, yes he does have issues to deal with. That is the premise of CLiFf. Cody is likely to face great turmoil if we do not take action.

Agreed, we must take action, becuase otherwise poor Cody will be put through utter hell by a certain Dark Deity. Poor Cody; emotional issues, that horrible letter from his dastardly mother, and let's not forget the eeevil cliffhangers!

So, what action should we take? The conspiracy is underway!!!

Dastardly

could the goat really be a bat in disguise? Is that you Bruce??

I doubt it. Goats are evil creatures. Speaking of evil, I'm sure you have something evil planned for chapter 4.

Yes, dastardly! What else can describe a woman who would treat her son like that? I've never seen such a cold and calous (not to mention calculating) parent! That was pure evil!

Cody's mother is IMHO the nastiest of your antagonists so far, and that's a darn tough crowd!



Goats aren't evil! Now, Shadowgod, he's Evil... Ask yourself this; who really wrote that letter to Cody; was it his mother, or Shadowgod? I rest my case.

.........Codys mother is probably the coldest figure I've seen written in here in a long time. I wonder what his brother wanted?

Well, I can think of a certain politician and his assistant. They were quite dastardly too. Now, if Cody's mom does something to make them look like saints, I will probably agree with you.

Cody's Mother treats her own son as window-dressing, and that letter (THE letter) was the most clod-hearted thing I've ever seen!
She just cut off her son AND called him a worthless loser AND, as a bonus, did it in a way that could make him hate his brother. That's even more evil than Catherine Harris IMHO.

His Shadowyness has truly evil villains!

............I would not discount Cody's brother, I think he will turn out to be a good guy, even although his "mother" doesn't know any better.

You were right on that!

OK, now, on to some official buisness for the Cody Liberation Front!

Cody has a concert paycheck coming, plus an extra thousand $ from Eric. So, will His Shadowyness let Cody have the $, or will there be yet more mistreatment of Cody?

LET CODY KEEP THE MONEY!!!!

.......Of course Cody is very much deserving of the money, unless someone has already spent it!

It was evil what the wretch did to Cody.... but I don't think it's quite as evil as a certian GOAT and his infliction on poor Brandon

Don't forget Eric!

How can I forget? I'm still trying to recover from it

We've got to focus on Cody!!! In 6, he's looking at the CYCLE TRADER! Unless that for tricycles, we have a HUGE risk!!! This alone is a MAJOR CLIFFHANGER!

Oh, and BTW, I see JAcob is still riding!

Shadowgod is EEVIL! After LiS 26 he knows that any mention of the two-wheelers will be an instant cliffhanger!

*sigh* CJ, this is just a diversion tactic and you know it. Just because His Shadowyness doesn't have a lot of time at the moment to write and advance the plot, doesn't mean you have to beat this topic to death. You know these dicussions won't change what he writes about anyway...

Maybe we should have a little rodeo contest with our resident goat. You know, the kind Talon told us about...

Steph... would it change your mind if you knew that His Shadowyness launched a campaign to have one of my characters removed from my custody? (and yes, I can prove it.)

See? I keep telling you he's evil... That's why we all fear for Cody's safety.

Save Cody!!

I was looking out for the characters best interests.... What is wrong with that?

There's nothing wrong with that, Steve. He would not have gotten shot if you had been protecting him.

Right eric needs to be protected from the goat

ahem plus Cody and Eric could you know

I KNOW!!! the goat however is evil and refuses to let that happen

In the goat's defense, it might have prevented the two from being in a motorcycle accident.

I PROTEST!!!!

I'm not THAT predictable ... Besides, whats the worst I could do? Have Cody win an all expense paid trip to beautiful, Scenic, Toowoomba?

Well let's just keep any motorbikes away from Cody.....okay ?

Sort of like the goat repeatedly trying to hang cliffhangers on you, may I suggest again a nice safe Volvo for Cody. Really, if the Volvo doesn't turn heads, maybe a newer model Saab. Both are known for the safety records and will keep any suggestions of Cody's safety quiet.

Now that would be unpredictable . And if money is an issue to Cody for his new Volvo/Saab, if he got an extra grand for a kiss from Eric, what would Eric be willing to pay for.....let's just say more . Before you protest too much, Cody has slept around for revenge so why not make a little cash on the side .

Oh wait, this forum is to protect Cody.

Sorry, just kidding.

Steve

WAIT! Why are we worried about Cody getting a motorcycle? Cody's never had a motorcycle accident. For all we know, Cody could be an extremely responsible driver.

Unfortunately it has nothing to do with be an extremely responsible driver . It has to do with what a certain author did to a previous lead character with a motorcycle.

Once bitten....Twice shy

Bourbon never got into any major trouble with his bike, I don't see the reason for caution

Maybe I should just go back to writing him. Nobody seems to have a problem with him and his bike

Says who? I did propose having Eric take Cody with him on the tour.







Toowoomba might be a little warm for his liking, but hey, I did offer to send Cody on a nice, safe trip to a place where they have GREAT beef!



Totally agreed there, except for one thing... once bitten? ONCE? Remember the Beast, in Shot of Bourbon, and what happened in chapter one of SOB?

So yes, I'd say we have a MAJOR problem if His Shadowyness puts Cody on a Motorcycle!

I hereby formally propose the following measure: If Shadowgod puts Cody on a motorcycle, it will prove that Shadowgod is indeed the once and forever King of all Evvvil Cliffhangers, reigning in unrivaled supremacy from his Cliffhanging throne, as he gazes out across his true relm; the soaring, dizzying heights of the shadowy malevolent precipices.

What say you all?
CJ

Did you really propose for Eric and Cody to spend time on a tour hmm :?

Yes he did, however that would have led to Cody being in the middle of the shoot out on Last Dollar Rd, and he wouldn't leave Eric in San Francisco. So we reached a stalemate.

As for your proposal CJ. Regrettably i will have to quash any motion and leave it languish in some unknown sub-committee specifically formed to keep it from ever being passed

Well, I do recall at least two motorcycles in the past. One was almost fatal


Don't celebrate too soon. The alternative still almost led to Eric's death.

As for the proposal, I vehemently disagree. Instead, the members should decide who retains, or gains, the title of King of Evil Cliffhangers.


That sounds like a plan!

I second the motion to quash the motion and will put my support behind moving it to sub-committee


I'll vehemently agree with your vehement disagreement .

We are confusing two authors here, and that is CJ's fault. The goat is trying to project the blame of his evil cliffhangers onto poor old Shadowgod.

I guess it would be fair to warn Steve, that we are watching closely though .

Steve (who feels pretty dirty after trying to pimp out Cody)

Steve just made an excellent post in CJ's forum, but since it applies to CLiFf, I decided to respond her. C James is being mean to Cody. Cody deserves a night of hot gay sex with Eric, and C James is denying Cody of the opportunity! This is reprehensible treatment of Cody.
