Hm... the cameo challenge is, erm, challenging my opinion about cameos laugh I think I voted in the cautious-about-cameos range (can't remember which one now), but after reading some of the hilarious stories the challenge has produced, I think I really like them now - provided they are in light-hearted stories. I should think that in a long, seriously A- and/or B-plotted story, that is not intended to be a comedy, a very obvious cameo would be distracting. Minor mention (ie, not by name, and prolly in passing) of a FoLC might work in those, if done very carefully...
