PlayerAdded not working?
EDIT 2
01 | game.Players.ChildAdded:connect(function(newPlayer) |
02 | newPlayer.Character.Humanoid.WalkSpeed = 0 |
03 | newPlayer.Character.Humanoid.MaxHealth = math.huge |
04 | newPlayer.Character.Humanoid.Health = 9e9 |
05 | script.Parent.TextTransparency = 0.9 |
06 | wait(0.1) |
07 | script.Parent.TextTransparency = 0.8 |
08 | wait(0.1) |
09 | script.Parent.TextTransparency = 0.7 |

PlayerAdded doesn't fire for LocalScripts. You'll have to use game.Players.ChildAdded instead.

Another issue - your code makes the assumption that the Character exists as soon as the player is added. You need to connect to the Player.CharacterAdded event. Merely 2122 — 10y

Assuming this is a server side script, you can only call game.Players.LocalPlayer from a LocalScript (hence local Player). Instead, you would want
1 | game.Players.ChildAdded:connect(function(newPlayer) |
2 | newPlayer.Character.Humanoid.WalkSpeed = 0 |
3 | newPlayer.Character.Humanoid.MaxHealth = math.huge |
4 | newPlayer.Character.Humanoid.Health = 9e9 |
However, if you've got a LocalScript here and it's in something like StarterGui, a copy of this script will be given to each player that joins the game. So you know that this player has joined the game when the script starts running. You can just forget the connections and jump straight into business.
Also, I really suggest that you look into for loops! All that transparency code works, but it can really be condensed.
