Quality Maniac: League of Legends, Surrender text

I have noticed this for a while the text for surrender when you cant surrender is clearly wrong.
To clarify I am talking about the text you get when you cant surrender, e.g team mate A tries to surrender the team don't vote yes, then you try to surrender later on but before the timer (which the game don't tell you how long it is could be added in possibly) and you get this message:


(Clearly there is no need to see the rest of the game status ;)

So this been bugging me for a while I saw it probably a few weeks ago but haven't thought about it so much.

But now when I realized this is soooo obvious.

The text here clearly states "You cannot call for a surrender so quickly after the first was denied".

The issue is the word "first". What if this was over 10th surrender try?

Simple put it this text aways appears even after X number of surrender tries.

It should only appear after the first one. More explicit it should only appear the first time one tries to surrender after the very first surrender try. Meaning in the window of first try to second try(when it was possible after the time frame has passed).

The text should be changed from

You cannot call for a surrender so quickly after the first was denied

to

You cannot call for a surrender so quickly after the previous one was denied

Possible some otehr wording but you get my point. the game has to either specifically say since the 5th one etc or have a more general tone of why the player cant surrender.
