First of all, the votes themselves just plain look bad. You had such a nice, clean looking and easy to see template for doing votes with the surrender button, and instead of using that you use a new look thats harder to see at a glance and has tiny little indicators I have to actually look over at to see. I can't count them out of the corner of my eye like surrender. Just why? They are just ugly and don't fit in with the rest of the in game borders.

It also needs to be a vote someone has to call by typing /dragon or /baron, not associated with clicking on the timer for the chat ping. People are just learning to ignore the vote entirely because people use the ping the remind people that the objective is coming up and the vote isn't relevant yet.

Its like this feature was made by people who never played this game before. Please test the usability of your new features in PBE and fix them before putting it in preseason, its just obnoxious to have all these votes you can't disable (???) popping up constantly. Once people learn to ignore the objective votes they aren't going to use them anymore after you fix them, they just have to be right the first time.

EDIT:I also want to mention the easy solution for all this is just add voice chat.

The 30s auto pop-up is just for preseason exposure and will be disabled in the long run.

Any player can start the vote 90s before the obj spawns, and they can do so by clicking the timer on the scoreboard, or by pinging most relevant pings (don't recall exactly which ones off the top of my head - something like: Blue, OMW, All In, Attack, Hold?) around the dragon/baron pit area where it would spawn (or on the obj itself), or by just actually attacking it while not in combat with enemy champions.
