Cast Delusions of Mediocrity and as soon as possible to gain 10 life, exchange it with a permanent of theirs. Use the time elemental (or a boomerang) to return it to your hand and make the opponent lose 10 life.

Rinse and repeat.

Does anyone know why Puca's Mischief isn't in the database?

A much more effective version of this is Illusions of Grandeur and Donate. I'll post it.

its "returning to your hand" not "leaving play"
it doesnt work,
i can remember seeing a combo on the main MTG site a while back, it had a combo for returning oblivion ring to your hand, so the permanent it exiled stays exiled cause oblivion ring is only going to your hand, not leaving the battlefield (leaving play, and leaving the battlefield are pretty much the same thing)

You're so incorrect it's silly. Leaving play/the battlefield is when any permanent goes to any other zone, including hand, graveyard, library, exile, etc.

And the O-ring combo you're referring to is to make it leave the battlefield in response to it's enter the battlefield effect. This will cause the O-ring's LTB effect to resolve before it's ETB effect, which will return nothing to play since technically nothing's been exiled yet. Then it's ETB effect resolves, exiles something, and there's no way for it to come back since the O-ring is already gone. We had a big discussion over this sort of combo about a week or so ago involving the Parallax cards.
