In my experience, it works just as well if you make one, that is to say, not at all.
I once fooled some gullible friends at a sixth grade sleepover. If I hadn't guided it, though, it wouldn't have done anything at all. Sometimes if you get a bunch of people together who really believe in it, they'll make coherent answers, but the whole effect is lost if they, say, close their eyes and have somebody write down where the pointer goes. That's because people are totally guiding it, even if they think they're not.

That....is the greatest thing I have read or heard all week.
Remember Emu's face, people; one day it's going to be on the news alongside a headline about blowing some landmark to smithereens, and then we can all sigh and say, "She was such a normal person".....
....We'd be lying though.

Remember that grade school game of "football" with the triangle shaped folded piece of paper and two people would shove it to let it slide off the table part way, which would make a "touchdown?" You could easily just make a letterboard and let the spirits guide your slide.
stupid answer. I've heard that they're a portal that you don't want in the house. Meanwhile, in churches everywhere misguidedly donated ouija boards are spelling G-E-T M-E O-U-T O-F H-E-R-E.

It does raise one question, though. What kind of conversation do you have with the dead?
User: "So..."
Spirit: "Mm hmm."
User: "Dead, huh?"
Spirit: "I am."
User: "Neat."
*long awkward pause*
Spirit: "I have to go."

I just don't think all, or even most, dead people have a mystery to solve. But I guess the spirits who are just itching to talk to Ouija kids would be, on the average, more bound by ties to this Earthly plane. Still, why not just TELL the kids who their killer is?

what did the spirits say about THAT?!?
you nasty little girl... i will never accept you lecturing anyone ever again...
wicked wicked child!!!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
two things...
if i were dead, i'd lead the players on chase that would get them killed...
i'm just mean like that...
secondly...
if i were participating... i'd fake it...
but i'd make it say some like... "the one named phil must die tonight"
i could only see this game leading to something bad if i were involved on either end...
