I enjoy it when a player does something cool in the campaign and it was because he took interest in what I presented to him in the game. Last session the Wizard PC made an attempt to use the Prestidigitation spell to create a phony holy symbol when an NPC accused him of being a spy and asked to see his holy symbol if he was truly a priestess of Lolth like he claimed. He thought of doing this right off the fly and I thought it was a great idea. I wanted him to succeed so I allowed him to cast the spell with only a bluff check, but he rolled terrible & my opposed check rolled extremely high. I even gave myself a penalty cause his trick would be convincing, but it didn't help.Off the top of my head, one thing I did that I have always been proud of as DM was when I tricked a PC into making a deal with a Pit Fiend. The PC agreed to perform a task (help sentence a man to death for killing his family, only the PC was fooled into thinking he was guilty when he was actually innocent), and in return, another PC would have his hand returned to him (it was cut off due to a cursed magic item).After completing the task & being ashamed after realizing what she did, the PC told the Pit Fiend, "Now give him back his hand". The party had the severed hand in a bag that another PC was carrying, so the Pit Fiend simply made that hand vanish from the bag and appear in the palm of the injured PCs other hand. The Pit Fiend replied, "There, he has his hand. I thank you for your services. I hope we can make arrangements like this in the future." Then he teleported away.</blockquote>
