@HistoryValkyrie You should look up a show called "Curiosity: I, Caveman" It was on the Discovery Channel a few weeks ago and the people on the show were able to kill an Elk with an Atlatl. It is very Lethal.

@HistoryValkyrie amazingly accurate when u have a flexiable dart..natives have brought down the biggest of game with atlatls.even by todays standards with guns..i have killed 3 white deer with flint tips.there like razor blades..atlatls are deadly man

So, exactly how accurate was the atlatl and would you deem it a lethal weapon?

The dart was almost perfect (minus the lack of point), but the atlatl was rather lacking in accuracy. I could have made it a lot more flexible, for one, and better shaped. That would have given it more power, and thus, probably, more distance.
As to lethality, I'm sure it could kill as is, and any modifications mentioned above would make it even more deadly.

I would post a video, but I don't have the resources to make more at this time. If you search Youtube for atlatl, you should find a good video by Paleoaleo that should help.
As to why yours didn't work, I'm guessing it's because the arrow is too short and light with not enough flex for its length.
