Press tab (or whatever you use) to see the score board and hover your mouse over their summoner spells and you'll see the CD. If it's reduced due to masteries or t3 boots it should be changed accordingly.

So it is. In that case, I would definitely take away red/blue timers.

Na. Perm, not temp. Sometimes we get a message via skype (usually to taunt one of us :') ) but Roffles' been permabanned from TL.
I saw Cheep post about a book in another thread a few days ago so he's still on TL though, he just left TL LoL.

Often times now my teams and I don't carefully time dragon or don't remember the timer so we'll back and it'll spawn 2 seconds later or something, or mid will walk up to push and then blue will spawn and mid won't be able to take blue without risking the entire team dying while he's away or wasting the team's time. Then again, often times the only reason the behind team is able to get a dragon is because the winning team didn't time it properly.
Oh my god. This is EXACTLY why I am vehemently opposed to Riot instituting the drag/baron/buff timers into the game. People say "omg its not a skill" and yet 90% of people don't do it? Even in Gold 1 where I am i can win games by simply timing dragon and telling my team to be there every 6 mins and we eventually get a huge lead because we are up 4 dragons while the other team keeps farming.
Being able to type "17:45 drag" isn't a skill, but typing "17:45 drag" and being able TO REMEMBER the timer or re-check it 5 mins later to remind your team IS a skill. Anyone can type a timer, but how many people really remember it and take advantage of the timer? I have people go "12:34 TB" all the time but how many times do they actually recall at 12 mins, buy a ward and go straight to their blue to get it as it re-spawns? Almost no one.

It's not that people don't think it's a skill, it's that they don't think it's a skill that should be tested by League of Legends.
Everyone in their heads has their own subjective view on what skills they feel should be relevant to the game they're playing--usually biased towards skills that they consider themselves to be good at, and against things they don't enjoy or feel they're bad at.

The in-game timers only show up when you press tab. You still have to remember to check it.

Sometimes it feels like riot wants LoL to be a team based isometric twitch shooter. all emphasis on moving and attacking.

I mean I feel like the members of the design/Live Balance teams with competitive experience have predominantly shooter/fighting game experience and not as many who were into RTS games. Obviously Zileas did, but I don't know how long it's been since he even had a direct hand in design.
