New dynamic champion select ban/pick notification sound

Before the introduction of the new dynamic champion select, my account was never banned and only timed out very rarely after joining a game lobby. Since the new dynmic champion select, I have had a few time outs and now I can not join a game at all due to not picking a ban.

This may seem trivial and that I'm at fault, which is true, but, if I'm looking on my second monitor I only get notification on needing to ban a champion when 10 seconds are remaining, I panic a little, miss the ban and get locked out.

All I would like to see in the new lobby is an audio announcement to notify you WHEN IT IS YOUR TURN to ban/pick a champion, not when you've got limited time to find one.

And I'm not going to pick the first champ I see just to avoid the time-out. No doubt I'll get reported for troll picking.

Rant over, please make it happen :)

As someone else with two monitors, what I don't understand is why aren't you keeping tabs on it? That's why you have two monitors, to be able to look at multiple things at once!

You get a sound effect every time someone bans. That should be a queue to look over, see what was banned, consider how it changes your ban, then go back to what you were doing. You also get a nice sound effect whenever someone chooses a champion, again prompting you to look.

I'm starting to think what Riot needs to do is make it so that the League of Legends client full screens itself and takes up every monitor you have, forcing itself to the front. While they're at it, they need to finish their mobile app so that it can force its way to the front of your phone as well, removing all distractions for you so you can actually play the game you got into.
