The Ouija board is far from useless if you can catch someone who pays attention to it. Sometimes it's fun to just observe a round and fuck with people. Captain being an idiot and getting drunk? "CAPTAIN. BAD. MURDERER." Watch the chaos soar. On Destiny I had a fun round where someone took it off to a dark maintenance corridor and asked if (player) was a bad person. "perhaps" "careful" "observe". "Should I follow them?" "positive" ... That led to a pretty interesting scene at the end where the two got into a big fight just before the shuttle took off. (Both ended up surviving, though.)
I personally don't think it's a bad idea to let dead folks play around with the (harmless) on-station critters. Just let them possess one, and if they get killed as a critter they get that "shot with ghost gun" sprite and can't do it again. All the on-station critters are pretty harmless and die in one or two hits, anyway. Not to mention that it'd be just as easy to follow around someone who isn't a bad guy.
