Script in sword won't run if statements when the parameter is correct and can't change variables?

I have a round based game that I'm working on. In my sword script, it sends players back to the lobby, checks how many are still alive, and if its zero then it ends the round and changes a variable so it can restart again. The problem is.. the variable won't change. I'm getting no error statement, no warning from what I put in the script, just a broken game. If you think you need the script to fix this please leave a comment and I'll put it in the question, I was just unsure if this was something that happens to a lot of people in many different scripts.
