That's the joke. Watson "died" because he got it right.

And yet their scores went up? The same joke would work if the humans has posted the correct answer. Or if the right font was used for the question.

This is just a poorly constructed joke.

The score differences are likely because the screengrabs were taken at different times throughout the match. Also, the humans getting the question wrong but killing Watson is their way of having the "last laugh." Who gives a flying fuck about the font?

Just have a laugh, man.
