From your post, you had determined the runner was safe and declared it. If you had doubt, then ask your partner before you declare safe or out, or get in a better position to know for yourself. That is all everyone is saying here.

off point because I asked if my partner should have come out and told me i missed it. He should have. which is not the point- maybe I should have asked "How should my partner informed me I missed the call?" i thought it was a given to do the right thing and get the call right. Almost everyone agrees i am wrong. I'm stunned. Stunned to see the replies.

Your credibility is automatically on the line everytime you make a decision and then question it, by asking for help. The path you choose and the extent you go to, to "get the call rght" is entirely up to you. We are just passing on the experience that has worked best for us.
