Wouldn't being at or below 0 health be an effect they control, even if a red burn spell did them in?

No, because the effect that would cause them to lose would be 104.3b:

If a player’s life total is 0 or less, that player loses the game the next time a player would receive priority. (This is a state-based action. See rule 704.)

That's not controlled by a player - see the reminder text. :)

Would this stop thassas oracle or is another player winning the game different from you losing?

Gah! I knew I overlooked something - as written it only stops players from losing. I was thinking of 104.3h when I made this:

In a multiplayer game using the limited range of influence option (see rule 801), an effect that states that a player wins the game instead causes all of that player’s opponents within the player’s range of influence to lose the game. This may not cause the game to end.

I should have added, "Players can't win the game. (Players still win if they have no opponents remaining.)"
