Do you say the whole number? Twenty-Three.
Or each digit? Two, three.
Personally, I state the whole number!

Whole number. We were explicitly instructed NOT to say each digit separately.

We've been told the opposite - each digit seperately with hand signal.

1. Fist and whistle
2. Verbalize color and number(whole number)
3. Preliminary signal only if needed for clarification or a sell
4. Indicate and verbalize shots or spot and color putting it in for my partner.
5. Go to reporting area and stop
6. Signal the basket good and verbalize it (if this is the case)
7. Verbalize color and number (whole number – using one hand)
8. Signal preliminary – I don’t verbalized it.
9. Indicate and verbalize shots or spot and color putting it in.

I was watching a GJV game about a week ago, 3 man crew. I thought they actually called a good game but their signals were very odd. One one play an official blew the whistle, up went the fist. When he reported the foul, he used two hands, ten second violation signal. I thought I had missed something...there was no 10 second violation. It was a foul but I couldn't hear what he said to the table. I looked for a #55...was none. About a minute later, 'tweet', fist goes up, and we get the ten second violation signal again, but this time I could hear what he was saying. Foul on #10. Now I understand. I'm just glad it wasn't on #12 - he'd have to take off a shoe to report.

Are you sure he wasn’t just indicating a push?

Positive. As he was holding up his 10 fingers he said "White #10" then gave a signal for a illegal use of hands and verbalized it. I think he called it hacking.
