One thing I've learned, is there are no coincidences. Wether the Quiji board is good or evil, I have no idea. It's considered evil in the eyes of the church. Because it gives you a glance into the future, which you're not supposed to have unless you have the gift of foresight, or you seek a prophet(psychic).
They work, if you believe hard enough, that they will. I can't personally say anything about them, because I'm scared to use one lol. My mom told me about a time she used one, and she scared the hell out of me! I'd wait to find out who the guy likes, before you get to excited. It may not be the same guy, same name, different guy. Or it could be him, just not right now. He could wind up with someone else for a couple weeks, or whatever, then come over to you.
With things like the Quiji board, and magik, and such, you need to be careful. They're not always what they seem to be, and they may not always have an answer, or they'll only give you an answer you want to hear. Like the name of the guy you like.

As Om mentioned, they are as a result of the ideomotor reflex, which is also involved when one dowses. That doesn't preclude it being a supernatural experience though. It could be either your subconscious commnicating via involuntary reflex, or it could be a spirit causing a mild form of posession. I tend to the former explanation. We all have psychic faculties, even if we don't acknowledge them, and these are all tools we can use to access those abilities.
Edit: Oh, dear pip,
As you so rightly said, everybody is entitled to his or her opinion, and if somebody wants to make a claim, you are free to agree or disagree with it, evidence or no. In my experience people edit the evidence to fit their beliefs anyway. Skeptics included. Personally, I wish the "scientists" out there would realise that the whole point of science is open and objective investigation. Dismissing OR Accepting something before you've investigated it is Dogma, not Science. And just because you cannot observe the mechanism behind an effect, does not mean there isn't one, it simply means that your tool of measurement may not yet be advanced enough.

Used them all the time when I was a kid lots of fun till I tried it as an adult had some really freaky experiences and now I won't go near them as for them being able to predict the future I don't thinks so I think when ouija boards predict things it uses your subconscious so maybe you had an idea about what was going to happen and it came out on the board who knows just don't take it too seriously

There are many ideas of why an Ouija board works - some say the involuntary muscle movements and so on. Many others believe that the Ouija board, like tarot cards, are a means of tapping into our high consciousness and into the stream of time.
If you have faith that it was the board - then it was. If you want to believe it was coincedential - then it was.
I use tarot or pendelum (which is also a divination tool) and have found that often my questions come true.
So I would say the board worked.

hi..they were in history documented as a block of wood covered in human flesh with letters and numbers burnt on by a tool like a cattle brand.The flesh was often from a criminal or "witch" sentenced to death.Good thing it was a party and not by yourself.My Ouija board experience has haunted me for quite some time now. Take your knowledge and run.Coinsidence..maybe..lie most likely...they want you to come back.

First of all, you are a moron. Secondly, are you on crack cocaine? Thirdly, since you asked us, no the Ouija boards do not work. They never will, and you should realize that by now. Only morons and people people that are spooked out by simple things are going to buy that crap that they are real. Get real you idiot, you can't expect us to think that you are serious do you? The people push the stupid plastic piece of crap and that is how it works. The years wasted trying to debunk this piece of **** board game, and you are all still wasting time on this ****? Try thinking instead of wasting our time. Every year you morons persist in bringing up this nonsense, and you are allways such fools. Why do we co-exist on this planet? You should probably all live in another country, and call it Idiot's Ville. No one cares about you at all! Go get a book and read it. Those are the things with the words in them. They are your the things that your teachers tried to get you to read in school. How profound of them, it shows that you never apreciated the teachers you had. Now you are a joke.

Don't trust anything that you get from a Ouija board. They lie, trick and hurt people. I've had some really strange experiences with them.

It is likely that your subconcious mind influenced the movement of your hands. The Ouija board is a parlor game.

I think some of it is true, but beware of the friend playing with you who can move it and make you believe whatever they spell out. I do believe in the ouija board though.
