Oracle: Mystery Spells... what lvl spell is it?

[Bomanz]

Ok, so maybe I'm just being a moron...scratch that, no maybe about it. When playing say, a lvl 7 Oracle with the mystery of Flame, at lvl 7 you can add the FIREBALL spell to your spell list....and then cast it how many times per day, as a what lvl spell? Your progression by then would be 6 first lvl, 6 second level, 4 third lvl....

What lvl slot does FIREBALL take up when I cast that sucker??

Common sense says since its a Sorc/Wiz lvl 3 spell, it ought to be for the oracle as well?

It's not explicitly stated, but I read it as the mystery spells are of the highest spell level you can cast when the spell becomes available. Oracle's of flame can cast 3rd lvl spells starting at lvl 6, so gaining fireball at 7 would make it a 3rd lvl spell. It's not official, but I think it makes pretty good sense.
