Why does this skip an entire block of code?

I have two scripts that are supposed to work together to determine the frozen player. (They communicate by changing their names)

script 1:

_G.scriptperson2 = script.Parent.gamelogic

function display(text)
	local text2 = game.ServerStorage.text.Value
	text2 = text
	wait(3)
	text2 = ""
end
while true do
	

repeat wait() until _G.scriptperson.Name == "ready"

	repeat wait() until _G.Team2Player.Character.ingame.WalkSpeed == 0
		wait(3)
		if _G.scriptperson2.Name ~= "checkdone" then
		script.Name = "checkdone"
		_G.scriptperson2.Disabled = true
		for i,v in pairs(game.Players:GetChildren()) do
			if v.TeamColor == "Bright blue" then
				v.leaderstats.Wins.Value = v.leaderstats.Wins.Value + 1
			end
		end
		display("Red captain has been frozen! Blue team wins!")
		script.Name = "gamedone"
		wait(1)
		script.Name = "gamelogic2"
		_G.scriptperson2.Disabled = false
		elseif _G.scriptperson2.Name == "checkdone" then return end
end

script 2:

_G.scriptperson3 = script.Parent.gamelogic2
function display(text)
	local text2 = game.ServerStorage.text.Value
	text2 = text
	wait(3)
	text2 = ""
end

while true do
	repeat wait() until _G.scriptperson.Name == "ready"
	
		repeat wait() until _G.Team1Player.Character.ingame.WalkSpeed == 0
		if _G.scriptperson3.Name ~= "checkdone" then
		_G.scriptperson3.Disabled = true
		script.Name = "checkdone"
			for i,v in pairs(game.Players:GetChildren()) do
			if v.TeamColor == "Bright red" then
				v.leaderstats.Wins.Value = v.leaderstats.Wins.Value + 1
			end
			end
		display("Blue captain has been frozen! Red team wins!")
		script.Name = "gamedone"
		wait(1)
		script.Name = "gamelogic"
		_G.scriptperson3.Disabled = false
		elseif _G.scriptperson3.Name == "checkdone" then return end
end

For the most part, they work perfectly, the check for the names of the other scripts and change their own names accordingly, but one thing is wrong! It skips the entire block of each code that goes:

	for i,v in pairs(game.Players:GetChildren()) do
			if v.TeamColor == "Bright red" then
				v.leaderstats.Wins.Value = v.leaderstats.Wins.Value + 1
			end
			end
		display("Blue captain has been frozen! Red team wins!")

Why does it do this? Neither of the scripts break. They keep looping the way they are supposed to, it just skips the block above in each of them.

The expression

playerInstance.TeamColor == "Bright red"

will always be false. This is because TeamColor is a BrickColor value, and "Bright red" is a string.

a == b is always false when a and b are different types. In this case, a is a BrickColor and b is a string, so we know without having to actually check that playerInstance.TeamColor == "Bright red" is false.

This section in the BrickColor article tells us that we can compare BrickColor values using equals, or their names (which are strings).

We can change this to one of the following (or one of several others):

playerInstance.TeamColor == BrickColor.new("Bright red")
playerInstance.TeamColor.Name == "Bright red"
