Riot should create a position: TL Ambassador.

Just sit on TL all day and tell Riot all the good ideas TLers come up with to implement in League to make it the best game ever.

Right right, I get that. But I am talking about a position called that. Where you have to apply and have recommendations, meet certain requirements. That'd be an awesome job. Hell. I could do it from here. I read pretty much every thread on TL LoL with all my free time.

I have no idea what I am gonna do when summer is over and I can't charge my phone via solar all day haha.

Also, are you able to post/view TL from work? When I worked for GE I couldn't. I had to do some Computer Sciency things to get around their restrictions for my TL viewing pleasure.

Regarding Runes:

If you don't have 20 rune pages, if you want to build your runes for specific top lane match-ups you might have 4 pages geared for top lane and then 1 page for support when you don't get your choice role. If you want to play mid you have to go back and change your 4 rune pages to gear for mid lane instead. This isn't fun and the only reason I would buy more than 5 rune pages is to avoid this annoyance. It's like when you used to be able to buy more than 9 Armor Seals!

IMO:
1) Riot should remove the requirement to purchase rune pages and allow players to modify a single Rune page before each game. Allows for more strategy, flexibility, experimentation within the meta and caters to players of all ranks.
2) Riot should increase the cost of all Runes by at least 50% to compensate for the free Rune pages. I would double the cost of some of the cheapest runes.
3) Riot should remove all the Lesser and Normal tier Runes and just make the Greater tier the only Runes available because low tier runes are a noob trap and it doesn't cater to new players and riot likes to balance for low ELO anyway.

Right now I have 5 rune pages for the 5 main types of champs I play. I find it very hard to justify spending close to 20k IP just to have a unique 6th rune page. If instead I could just purchase new marks, seals, glyphs or quints (even if they were more expensive) and mix them into current pages on the fly I would definitely be buying more runes.

I had an idea after hearing someone (Alaric?) talk about a friend collecting champs like pokemon. I think it would be cool if Riot designed a sidequest RPG-like element to the game. You could do quests with certain champs to either earn IP or that champ. Obviously huge design commitment but I think it would be really cool for people that want all the champs but would rather not grind a hundred games. Appeals to those former WoW or pokemon players etc

In order to unlock Nami, you have to play Fisherman Fizz and perform his full dance on summoner's rift in a certain 100x100 unit area in the river. The area that triggers the unlock is randomized each game, and even if you're in the right spot you only have about a 40% chance of it working each time so you have to do it a couple times to make sure.

That sucks, we've had so much server problems on EUW (and old EU before the split) in the past :/ Riot should take some of their esport millions and improve server stability.

Reminder: IT issues don't allways resolve themselves by throwing money at them .And it's the same @Riot, see their communication in the months comming to the EU split.

How do you guys balance your rune pages vs champ pool?

I've got 3 rune pages (f2p lol), one for AD, AP and support - they are as generic as I can make them. On the flip side, I've only got 20 champs, so my ability to counter pick is very limited.

I'm sure it would be good to have jungle and top pages, or diverse AD/AP pages, but then again being countered in champ select due to such a shallow pool is frustrating too. What would you guys do here?
