The fact that Alex knew it was misspelled and not the wrong answer kind of shows they were being elitist. If he wanted confirmation just tell him to give the answer verbally.

I actually agree with the ruling. Jeopardy is a competition to get the correct answer. The answer isn’t correct if it’s misspelled and if they awarded him the win, then they would’ve needed to review every single game for anyone else that misspelled or mispronounced a word and changed the judgement

I remember one where a guy got docked for spelling Rockefeller wrong in final jeopardy many years ago.

Confused because usually they don’t jeopardize the adult players when they miss spelled words and final jeopardy

Mistakes have no consequence in art and music, but they do in sports, gambling, and, say, maybe later in his life, construction.

The answer WAS wrong; this is not horseshoes. He did not get the answer right. This is not a participation competition.
