Dear Riot,

Please fix the chat log sync time when summoners join a blind pick. The problem that occurs more then once is when Summoner 2 joins the pregame champion selection the chat log will read..

Summoner5 has joined the room.

Summoner4 has joined the room.

Summoner3 has joined the room.

Summoner1 has joined the room.

Summoner2 has joined the room.

Summoner2: Top.

The chat appears to Summoner 2 that they indeed called the lane and will continue to lock in. Not knowing that Summoner 1 had already called it due to a 1 second late join or whatever.

Summoner 1 connected sooner and called Top as soon as they joined but lost it because summoner 2 locked in.

Can we please have this madness and confusion stop by making it show the entire chat log of the pregame champion selection no matter when someone joins?!

Thanks, Summoner Blaze20.

I too have experienced this. I do not believe it is a problem we can fix as it may potentially involve people's personal internet connection in correlation with their speed and bandwidth loading for upload and download but we can never be sure. I am positive that Riot is aware of the solution and is working towards a solution.

All they need to do is show the backlog when a summoner connects to the lobby so a summoner can see if someone called it before they connected.

Yes show the backlog. Also i think its kind of pointless to have the chat log say all the summoners have joined the room. whats the point of that because you can clearly see if they joined or not. And if there is some off chance that someone did not connect then it would just kick you back to the queue. Unless you are really fast you cant even see the summoners name to then add them to your ignore list if you wanted.

Actually the icon showing someone isn't connected doesn't update properly in champion select so it can be unreliable. And a backlog isn't necessary, just disable the chat until everyone has connected.

Yes! this too! See Riot, there is 2 possible fixes for this very annoying problem.

I've had this happen to me before and it pisses people off when they don't see that I've called it.

Calling does not matter. At all.

Well when most summoners reach level 30 they still might not be able to play all the Lane Roles so they would rather play the role they are good at. Would you want to play a game with someone who was stuck with jungle and does not know how to jungle so they either go duo top or play jungle and throw the game? I'm sure you just assume that everyone at level 30 has tons of champs and at least 5 rune pages to be able to be a flexible summoner and fill any role. This is not the case.
