Main round script skipping parts of my code?

I am making a main script for my game which controls the rounds and players, but my code is skipping and breaking at a certain point for reasons I don't understand. Here is my code:

math.randomseed(tick())
repstorage = game.ReplicatedStorage
status = repstorage.Status

while wait() do
	for i = 10, 1, -1 do
		status.Value = "Intermission: "..i
		wait(1)
	end
	
	
	status.Value = "Choosing Map..."
	wait(5)
	
	
	chanceMap = math.random(1,1)
	
	if chanceMap == 1 then
		repstorage.Maps.Map1:Clone().Parent = game.Workspace
		status.Value = "Map Chosen: Symmetrical Maze!"
		wait(5)
	end
	
	
	status.Value = "Get Ready!"
	wait(5)
	
	repstorage.Teams.Fighters:Clone().Parent = game.Teams
	wait(0.2)
	
	for i, player in ipairs(game.Players:GetPlayers()) do
		if player.Character then
			local hum = player.Character:FindFirstChild('Humanoid')
			if hum then
				player.TeamColor = BrickColor.new("Really red")
				repstorage.Weapons.M4:Clone().Parent = player.StarterGear
				repstorage.Weapons.M9:Clone().Parent = player.StarterGear
				wait(0.2)
				player:LoadCharacter()
			end	
		end
	end

This is where it breaks. It stops displaying the status values and seems to skip to changing the players team, respawning me in the lobby and then seems break the while loop. I can tell because when I change the brickcolor to the fighter team colour, it respawns me in the arena and not the lobby. The waits and while loops don't seem to register at all.

	status.Value = "Begin!"	
	
	wait(5)
	
	for i = 10, 1 -1 do
		status.Value = "Game In Progress..."		
		wait(1)
	end	
	
	for i, player in ipairs(game.Players:GetPlayers()) do
		if player.Character then
			local hum = player.Character:FindFirstChild('Humanoid')
			if hum then
				player.TeamColor = BrickColor.new("Institutional white")
				player.StarterGear:ClearAllChildren()
				wait(0.2)
				player:LoadCharacter()
				wait(0.1)
			end	
		end
	end

	status.Value = "Game Over!"
	wait(5)	
	
end
