OK, so I'm auditioning for 'The Don', fu fu fu fu fu fu fu! XD
Anyway, I thought since I'll probably end up using it, I'd bring the topic of Doflamingo's strange abilities to open discussion and get everyone's opinion on it. It's pretty mysterious in it's workings so I thought if we got together we might be able to figure out how exactly it works.
Onepedia entry on his powers (Whitebeard War Spoilers);
Originally, I suspected he had some sort of puppetry devil fruit and that allowed him to control the bodies of people he targeted, however after seeing his displays at Marineford, I'm leaning more towards wire.
I think perhaps he posseses some sort of wire devil fruit that has some sort of special ability to control people. The way he motions his hands, I would thing that this ability requires him to snare each of the five major appendages on the persons body (Head, arms and legs) before they can be controlled. This wouldn't be the first time that a devil fruit has shown abilties outside of what would expect of normal capabilities. Perona can do those negative and exploding ghost attacks that wouldn't necessarily be attributed to the power of creating hollows. Other examples include Mr 3's Candle Wax being as strong as steel, Miss Doublefinger being able to increase her strength through stabbing herself with spikes and perhaps even the yami yami no mi's ability to remove peoples devil fruit powers temporarily.
It is of course possible that DonDo (XP) isn't even a devil fruit user, he could have learnt how to do this elsewhere like the CP9's Rokushiki or life return, both which offer bizarre abilities through training. For that matter, Miss Goldenweeks color traps had the ability to manipulate people to a certain degree, Doflamingo could simply command a greater ability which is similar to this.
So, anybody else got opinions?

Don't say you weren't warned!
Body Manipulation
Doflamingo extending his hand in typical manner, when using his ability.
Doflamingo possesses an as-of-yet unnamed ability to control people's bodies like puppets. He can make his victims move as he wants by moving his fingers accordingly. Doflamingo mainly uses this power to force comrades to fight (and kill) each other, while Doflamingo himself sits at the sidelines and watches.
It is currently unknown what the limitations of his abilities are. He has shown himself capable of controlling more than one person at the same time. Every one of his victims being "puppeteered" were unable to resist his powers and therefore rendering them completely helpless to him. This ability is even strong enough to stop physical strength from "Diamond" Jozu from further attacking Crocodile.
Whether it stems from a Devil Fruit or some other means, or if it's related to his puppeteer-style ability, is unknown: Doflamingo has demonstrated that he can effortlessly slice off body parts as it is in the case of Oars Jr.'s leg and the decapitation of the former Shichibukai, Crocodile.
