(started counting where we should have left off, not counting the above number 33 since it didn't have any info.)

37. Samurai was arrested for practicing demonology after tossing a chicken against a warded wizard's tower causing the chicken to take 12d6 electrical damage and explode. He did this in full daylight in front of guards after purchasing the chicken from a guard. He was only accused of demonology because my character (in order to win a bar bet) had leaked information to the guards as the chicken was being tossed that he was attempting to summon a demon. The samurai defended himself by claiming he was merely attempting to commit breaking and entering and was promptly found guilty of this and heavily fined.

38. Burning down half the town in order to "cause a distraction" in order to rob a pawn shop.

Summoning up all the "mounts" (1st lvl spell) that you can, selling them, leaving, come back "altered" and say you'll "risk" yourself, for the right price, and find those who stole the recently bought mounts. Good if done quickly before the stableboy knows what happened.

143. Everyone in the group is of a non-good alignment

In one of my games, the players weren't getting along very well so I told them to make up new characters. Everyone (of their own accord) decided to be a non-good alignment because they felt that being good and/or lawful was too restrictive...

Good aligned Player: "What do you mean I can't torture this prisoner!!!"
DM: You haven't proven he's done anything wrong.
player: "But if I torture him he'll tell me if he has!"

and such....

They all thought that being straight neutral (and one was neutral evil) that they could get away with anything they wanted. So.... to begin their game I let them make up 9th level characters, buy the requisite starting equipment, then told them that they all started in jail so rip up your character's property sheets. The knights of heironeous just decided to imprison them because they cast detect good and it came up negative, and most of their back stories were shady enough to justify it. The druid and the ranger I ruled as just being in the wrong place at the wrong time (though less hokey).

Remember when you're neutral you have no friends... Evil people will kill you, good people won't trust you, and neutral people are.... neutral.

180. Trying to start a fight in a respectable inn in order to try out a new mass-destruction spell, then attempting to tell the guards it was all part of a new improv street drama group formed just then. ( My wizard char tried this; the city guard popped up right after he shoved open the door and stood there with a fireball in his hand, waiting to be used. Needless to say, his bluffing didn't work too well).

whats a dweomer

wikipedia: A Dweomer is the magical charge on an enchanted item in fantasy books or RPGs such as Dungeons and Dragons. More broadly, it can refer to the magical item itself or a spell cast by the object.

However in this case, it probably refers to certain body part(s) of the Queen.
