It is a bad situation when you have double whistles and one gives the preliminary too soon. If your partner had not gone over to you and you just dropped I would see no problem

you may want to just get the play right. I know alot of other considerations could go into this, like level of play or score (was this a blowout). It already looks bad when you have to come together so you might as well leave with
the right call.
PAULK1,
Although I do not disagree with your words, I felt that by visibly agreeing with my partner that it "appeared" we were in agreement.
Whether I was right or wrong, a reversal of the preliminary signal, I felt, could have become ugly and all that comes with it. Then, would a reversal improve, or worsen, the game from that point? Dunno.
