That doesn't work. MouseButton1Click does not return the player, it never did return the player. It will only return a number value being where on the button the player clicked.

You would be better off using a LocalScript. It's actually recommended you use a LocalScript for Gui objects. Otherwise you would have to go script.Parent.Parent.Parent or however many parents it may take to get to the player.
The script that I have originally uses a localscript, but for some reason it messes everything up, which is why i'm trying to switch over to a serverside one.
