Well, you dont "deserve" mid either. Things happen, you just have to deal. It doesnt care about if you go 100/0 every game, or if you only play mid and lose autofill.

Because Veigar probably also queue'd for mid since its the most contested role in the game.

If the matchmaker couldn't find anyone to fill a specific position within 3 minutes or so, autofill re-assigns someone at random to fill the position, in order to prevent the queue from continuing for 6, 7, 20 minutes or even more (in very very high MMR brackets)

You're going to keep getting autofilled until you play a game as an autofilled role, which will give you temporary autofill protection. Dodging/somebody else dodging does not count, you have to play out a match that you got autofilled in. Consider it your civic duty, everybody has to deal with it sometimes - except support mains, since it's one of the most commonly filled roles.

If you get autofilled and you dodge, you are more likely to get autofilled anyway.
