Concerning the loss counted upon 'queue dodging'

so I've recently (last night) learned that during ranked play, if one dodges a queue, it counts as a loss on their record. I was, as anyone might be, pissed off. It's not that I dodged the queue on purpose, I simply wasn't paying attention, so the game kicked me, I got a loss, had a tiny rage, and decided that this needed to change.

A friend of mine explained to me why a dodge counts as a loss, and that makes sense to me, but I didn't dodge the queue on purpose, I simply wasn't paying close attention (my fault still), so I would like to suggest and perhaps garner support for a change in the countdown during one's champion selection. Perhaps at 10 seconds or 15 seconds left, the game will beep or buzz or scream loudly, so to let the player know that time is almost up. I'm not sure if this is already implemented, but if it is, it doesn't work very well. Thoughts?

I mean if you are queue up for a rank game why aren't you pay attention ?

The game does make a sound when there is 10-15 seconds left I believe. Just pay attention during champion select, or don't queue for it until you can pay attention.

This isn't even a problem.
