Ranked LOCK IN Button is BROKEN needs Fixing

To whomever at Riot sees this,

The current way the ranked Lock In button works is incredibly frustrating and nonsensical. After you have selected which champion you are playing, it requires you to click the lock in button, otherwise you are thrown from the queue and given a 5 minute queue dodge timer, if it happens a second time it's a 30 minute queue dodge timer. I mainly Jungle and Top as tanks. For me in Champion Select I discuss with my team to try to figure out which champion would be best for me to play in order to help our team. When I am an early pick however due to the 30 second window of champion select, I do not have much time to discuss. On multiple occasions now I've selected a champion during my 30 seconds, and am writing in chat to see if my team wants something else. Due to the short 30 second window frequently during champion select I am typing when the timer gets down to 3 or 2 seconds and I forget to click the button. I'd already chosen my champion, I was just seeking confirmation that no one wanted something else. Who does that constitute a queue dodge?

Beyond just my scenario, what if something happens in real life to someone just about to lock in their champion; let's say a pet, or younger sibling/child knocks something over and distracts the player while they check to see if everything is alright. Is it fair for that person to be penalized when in at most a minute or two they'll be back in their seat ready to play? No it's not. Riot this is a dumb feature, please change it for the sake of all players.

Sincerely Yours,
