VOTE: Remove queue dodge for not locking

Asked for no comment cause this has already been discussed lots in previous board topics but a vote or actual tallied petition has never been made.

Indeed. You could also queue for top and still go mid.

But seriously, it's not a big deal. What's so hard about picking and locking before tabbing to your video or whatever? You're not being forced to sit through the whole pick and ban phase, just that you spend a few seconds looking at it, and clicking so that they know you did at least look.

Because some of us don't want more AFKs?

What the OP is asking for is a champion select system with even less player involvement than we had before. Before you had to call roles, pick your champion in the middle of the rest of the picks, etc. If it auto locked your champion you could be AFK from 5 seconds after you accepted the match until the match ended, since you no longer need to interact.

The better idea is to make people who sit down to play a game actually play the game.

Some people believe it leads to less AFKs in game (not true. All it means is they clicked a button before leaving their computer). Others believe that by locking you're making sure you chose the champ you meant to instead of panicking and picking something by random at the last second. The later is a valid point but the confusion of say.. double picking mid, has since been eliminated by the new queue setting your role.
