Please tell me why this isn't already a thing...

So here I am, sitting down, ready to play Mid and I hop into Normals. The lobby loads up, I call Mid first and I get my champ picked. Then pretty much every time, someone else goes "No I called Mid" Then this person pastes into the lobby chat what he wants me to believe is the Lobby Chat on his screen. So then this guy who in theory, never actually called Mid first, forces me out of Mid just because I joined later than him.

So please tell me, when we join a lobby, why can't we see what everyone has said, even if we joined last? This is a perfectly logical feature that would lower the amount of people stealing roles without anyone being able to prove it true or false.

Why, no clue. But wait...how do you know he never called mid if you just said he joined before you?

even if they said it AFTER you joined chat it's possible for you both to see different things. Because your chat is input client-side, while everyone else's chat has to go client->server->you

best way is to not instalock anything ever, and ask a 3rd party to confirm who got it.

then don't be a dick if it's not to your liking

It is indeed called teambuilder. No one plays blind pick for a reason.

Just instalock and don't give a fuck. If he wants to win he will pick something else or quit

i dont understand. why are you playing by made up rules to begin with? "call order" has never been a real thing. since the start of the game, riot has told us the game is setup for "pick order" and thats what you should use.

"boss can we change our email policy? every time i send an email, i stab myself with this pin as im supposed to. my hand really hurts."

"no one ever told you to do that... please dont stab yourself."
