[color=#000000ost_uid0]Part 1: "Purnell" : Don't know, but I do have a lame guess on this. No, wait, I don't. Wrong gender. And she hasn't come back yet anyway.
Part 2: "Akili" : Check.
Part 3: "The Baron" : Check.
Part 4: "Windham" : Another lame guess.
Part 5: "Colonel Saxon" : Check.
Part 6: "Greg 'Soon' Thaid" : Check.

Anyone want to do an update on the worlds count? I know there's at least one in part 6...[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]"Purnell" took a little digging, but there's another clue there, too.
"Akili" is pretty easy, and "Windham" should be easy, as well.
For "Baron" and "Col. Saxon", it helps a bit to have been hanging around the forums for a while.
"Greg 'Soon' Thaid" was more obscure, but you figured that one out before I did.

My world count stands at 22, but I haven't gone back over everything in detail, yet.[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]I think "Obadiah "O" Kwon" is the 'official' cameo. I managed to get most of the others in Part 7, but only because they were thrown at me.[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]You know, PHJ, I was about to disagree with you, but I just realized that you are probably absolutely right.

Now that I think about it, you are undoubtedly probably absolutely right.[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]Hmm...I assumed the Mysterious Hooded Man was also a cameo, though I couldn't figure out for certain who it was. And maybe the cow, too.

I got all the ones before part 7...but then, I cheated.[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]I actually managed to get it with only a few hints...and a scan through the Members list.

And the one from Part 6, retroactively.[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]I must confess that I'm totally stumped as to the Part 7 cameo.

I suppose it's my come-uppings, or something .[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]PHJ is right about which is the "official" cameo in Sleapers 7. For a hint, look at the adjective used at one point to describe the character.

There are nine other 5MVers referenced directly or indirectly in the text. The hooded man and the cow are [iost_uid0]not[/iost_uid0] among them, though when I first thought of the former he was going to be a cameo. I hadn't decided who by the time I changed my mind.

And yes, IJD, it is specifically your comeuppance. [/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]We'll announce the official cameos tomorrow, I think. (I'll answer any questions about the unofficial ones too, but I won't list them yet in case people want to try and find them all themselves.)[/colorost_uid0]
