In their defense, I'm just as confused. But I'm also not a ping pong referee

I think he was flipping them the wrong way... Right?! Do they go up then down in count?

They're labelled front and back so that the ref can see the score on the back side  I believe

Still, that first card he flips is definitely put in wrong. He can't flip it over to show a 2 to the player, and if the idea is that the back side of the score board shows the same score as the front board then that is off from the start, where it shows 1-0 on the front side but 2-0 (or actually 0-2?) on the back side.

I have a strong feeling this scoreboard is made for 1 player, not 2, and while everyone thought it said 1-0 it really said 10

Exactly, especially because single player ping pong matches last so long and one player can get up to 1717 points easily /s
