We @ LoG have found a bug on the newest obs version:
You can now posses from infinite distance (don't stop here, read on this isnt what you think it is:) but only if you have been close for a bit of a sec.
For example: A hunter stands next to you, you try to poss, hold right mouse, then he runs, you didnt poss him yet...
Then when hes far away off you suddenly became him, you possesed him.
This can apply too when an obs jumps OVER a hunter, just to be close for an instant, then land, wait, possesed.
I checked our config, even restarted our server. It's not ours, we didnt change the cfg since 2.98.

I was just playing in EAS's Elimination server last night and can confirm this bug, as the same thing happened to me!
The map was mp_crash, and I was one of 2 survivors left on Marines, w/ a Predator/OBS closing in on our location. We were in the building next to the Marines original spawn point and I was being tailed by a Pred. I was standing in one spot when I heard him move. Upon hearing him, I ran in another spot, in another room, about 15 feet away. After running, I spent - literally - no more than 1 second listening in and viewing the area to see if he was in the room. Right after this moment, I became possessed!
After this happened, I awaited and watched the replay. Turns out, the pred was behind me and in close proximity for most of the time. When I ran into the next room, he stayed behind, stopped, and had already begun to draw out his arms and started possessing even as I was running away from him!!! This confirms the bug, as I was: a) in a running motion and not standing still; and b) more than 10 feet away from his position. I called the player-in-question out on it, but he and some other sap thought it was funny and never gave an answer as to how that happened.
But, yeah, long story short: This is a serious bug that needs to be addressed ASAP! If the mod maker wants to get in touch w/ me for more details, and find out the identity of the OBS-in-question, please e-mail or PM me.

I knew it!, the night the new update was released I got possessed from about 10 meters away, haha
Falc, Desc and I tested it and it seemed fine, probably cause we tried possessing each other from so far away :P

Not sure why you posted your question here.
If you download mp_obsxmas from the "Downloads" section on this site, it comes with a obscurity_default.cfg file.
