The problem is that you use a soon to be deprecated API web_reg_save_param which does not support the ParamName syntax. In this API the second parameter is always the parameter name and therefore the correct use would be:

web_reg_save_param(
"rotaPeople",
"LB=someText",
"RB=\")",
"Ord=ALL",
LAST);

The proper API to use is web_reg_save_param_ex which does support the syntax you used so the call should look like:

web_reg_save_param_ex(
"ParamName=rotaPeople",
"LB=someText",
"RB=\")",
"Ord=ALL",
LAST);

Then the rest of your code should work properly.

I am not sure what you are doing but you might want to take a look at the somewhat unknown API lr_paramarr_random which will automatically pull a random value from the parameters array.
