There's another reason for players to play qualify : they are bored from ranked players only playing for the win and flaming all around because they don't play good enough. Maybe that changed recently but I doubt that...
So, since there are less players day after day, maybe adding a command !votestart could be good too, to play 4vs4 or anything and not to count it in ranking. I mean every game which is not 5vs5 wouldn't count (if it's possible). The advantage is : there is still ranked requirement to join those kind of games.
I know what you will tell : make private game. But there are not a lot of good players still playing unfortunately and making priv is almost impossible, even with the facebook group or the skype group...
But I think your idea is good anyway. Maybe better than mine, but I think some players won't be happy if they are "forced" to play ranked. And if they want to play in the morning or anytime ranked just can't start, they won't be able to do it...
