this is only half of the script its a 100+ line script but i didnt want to post the whole thing so this is the part i feel is doing the problems

        function selectCharacter(person)        
    local chosen = person[math.random(1,#person)]
    if string.find(tagger.Value,chosen.Name) == nil then
        if chosen:findFirstChild("ItStatus") ~= nil then
            chosen:findFirstChild("ItStatus").Value = true
        end
        if chosen:findFirstChild("leaderstats") ~= nil then
            chosen:findFirstChild("leaderstats").Value = 0
        end
        local hum = chosen.Character:findFirstChild("Humanoid")
        if hum ~= nil then
            hum.WalkSpeed = 20
        end
        local parts = chosen.Character:GetChildren()
        for i = 1,#parts do
            if parts[i].className == "Part" then
                parts[i].Anchored = false
            end
        end
        wait()
        local tagscript = chosen.Character:findFirstChild("Torso"):findFirstChild("TagFlee")
        if tagscript ~= nil then
            tagscript.Name = "TagIt"
        end
        local tagblock = chosen.Character:findFirstChild("TagBlock")
        if tagblock ~= nil then
            tagblock.Parent = nil
        end
        dubHat(chosen)
        tagger.Value = tagger.Value..", "..chosen.Name
    else
        selectCharacter(person)
    end
end

function calculate(char)
    local characters = char:GetChildren()
    select = (#characters/5)-((#characters/5)%-1)
    for i = 1,select do
        selectCharacter(characters)
        itcount = itcount + 1
    end
end

What are you trying to accomplish? What happens instead? BlueTaslem 18071 — 9y

Okay, I will try helping you as best I can on my phone. a tip is instead of keep using if then statements try using if then and or it cuts back line count alot.

Okay I will just make you a script drawing players


function draw(players)
max = math.random(1,#players)
for i, v in pairs(players) do
If i >=max then
--blah blah blah
end
end
end

function cut()
for i,v in pairs(game.Players:GetChildren()) do
tabplayers = {}
if v ~= nil and v:FindFirstChild("Character") ~= nil then -- variables just use and 
table.Add(tabplayers,tabplayers[#tabplayers+1],v)
end
draw(tabplayers)
end

This should work but i typed on my iphone so if it doesnt post the errors and il fix it
