You forgot to lock in a ban... gg promotion series?

Seriously? Can we get rid of the net nanny AFK-checks already? It's already a huge pain in the ass to get through promo series but a defeat because you didn't click BAN with a champ highlighted? Why doesn't it auto lock in your pick? There is ZERO LOGIC here!

How about you make people mail a letter begging for forgiveness to Riot HQ any time they aren't paying attention to the game before they can play again? Will that sate your sadistic player behavior team's wet dream?

Other than that, it seems your on top of cheaters and people who rage at teammates. Good job.

Edit: Seriously, can someone respond to this issue with any form of logic? Why does continuing to force interaction benefit anyone? The game is on the Rift, not confirmation boxes. I'm mind blown that I'm getting a downvote train as if people want more restrictions outside the game?

how about you lazy ass dont waste my time and bann/lock in your champs right away instead of wasting those 60 sec for no damn reason?

Yeah.... It's not hard to press the big orange button after deciding who you want to ban. Unless you're in the middle of jerkin' it while in queue because your silver queue times are too long.

That's a great idea actually. Riot should do spot checks by cam to make sure that you're a real player,

part of it would be with a live person,

and the other part would check that your bio-metric facial data match what is in your profile.

Can you imagine. Half of all accounts would be gone before the month was out.

How can you forget?

Let me guess... you were AFK, right?

It's just completely unnecessary. Why don't we just add a check for every player for every other players pick just to make sure everyones paying attention?

Wait, I just got a GREAT idea - If you don't lock in your skin pick, you dodge as well.

They need the forced lock in so that they can come out with a sick infographic in a couple months saying "look how much faster and less toxic we made champ select guys! aren't we soooo good?"

You think they'd be able to go from (2 players with 3 bans each + 6 rounds of picking + prep/trading time) to (preferred champion time + 6 players with 1 ban each + 10 rounds of picking + prep/trading time) without dramatically increasing the time it takes otherwise?

I actually like it. The morons who don't lock in won't be playing in my game (: sorry but I rather have someone paying attention. [slayer-pantheon-thumbs]
