Playing as a count I used this decision to ask my liege (a duke) for one of his many duke titles, because after 40 years without a single fabricated claim I became bored ;)
I have continued to play for 5 more years (still no claim) hoping for the title but somehow all I got was a letter from my liege telling me that my loyalty surley will be rewarded (as I understood it he would put in a good word for me with the emperor). So I tried to take a look at the event files but I dont fully understand them. As far as I see, it started with event 63040 (events/vassal_request_events.txt) which has something in it with mean_time_to_happen = 480 month (???) but since within 4 days the next event (liege receives request) 63041 starts I have no idea what that mtth is used for. (I doubt that I realy have to wait about 40 years since the whole thing is labeld character_event and most rulers dont have that much time ;))
In 63041 there are now the 3 options, accept, deny and "deny with superior diplomacy" and even though I would have guessed that I had an accept maybe telling me that its now up to his superior is my lieges superior diplomatic way to tell me to shove it? *confused*

So if someone how knows the event, knows how to understand the code or knows where I can find the files containing "EVTDESC63042"/"EVTDESC63005" could give me any pointers I would realy appriciate it.

Sry for bumping this but since it seems to be the easiest way to get rid of your dobble-/tripple-duke and I am not sure if its buggy (maybe mtth=48 month?) hence I dont know if it is worth the 150g, I keep hopeing someone might be able to help.

As Goldor notes. I've faced that decision as the King of Sweden from the other side. You can grant the request, tell him off undiplomatically, leading to a -10 to opinion on his part, or tell him off in a diplomatic fashion which leaves his opinion of you unchanged. You were on the receiving end of the last.
