Here's a crude example I copied from someone on another forum

You need an integer array that keeps track of the number of kills per player. Something like
'NumberOfKills[playerIndex] = X'

You can set the size to 12 in the worldeditor.

To initialize your multiboard use the following actions in a trigger that runs near the beginning of the game:

Actions
    Multiboard - Create a multiboard with 2 columns and 1 rows, titled Your Multiboard Title...
    Set myMultiboard = (Last created multiboard)
    Set multiboardRowIndex = 1
    Player Group - Pick every player in (All players matching
           (((Picked player) slot status) Equal to Is playing)) and do (Actions)
        Loop - Actions
            Multiboard - Change the number of rows for (Last created multiboard) to 
                     ((Number of rows in (Last created multiboard)) + 1)
            Multiboard - Set the text for (Last created multiboard) item in column 1, 
                    row multiboardRowIndex to (Name of (Picked player))
            Multiboard - Set the text for (Last created multiboard) item in column 2, 
 row multiboardRowIndex to (String(NumberOfKills[(Player number of (Picked player))]))
            Set multiboardRowIndex = (multiboardRowIndex + 1)
            Multiboard - Show (Last created multiboard)

Then you need a trigger that increments the number of kills each time a unit is killed by a certain player and updates the multiboard.

Events
    Unit - A unit Dies
Conditions
    (Player number of (Owner of (Killing unit))) Less than or equal to 12
Actions
    Set NumberOfKills[(Player number of (Owner of (Killing unit)))] = 
           (NumberOfKills[(Player number of (Owner of (Killing unit)))] + 1)
    Set multiboardRowIndex = 1
    Player Group - Pick every player in (All players matching 
          (((Picked player) slot status) Equal to Is playing)) and do (Actions)
    Loop - Actions
        Multiboard - Set the text for myMultiboard item in column 2, row multiboardRowIndex to 
              (String(NumberOfKills[(Player number of (Picked player))]))
        Set multiboardRowIndex = (multiboardRowIndex + 1)

That's a very nice trigger, just modify it to fit your needs, if you understand triggers enough you'll figure it out easily.

wait...

Yeah i pretty much new about all of that, what about the LIVES/FLAGS and GOLD??

For kills you would probably want something like this:

Events
Unit - A unit dies
Conditions
Actions
If (Owner of (Killing unit)) equal to Player 1(Red) then do Set Kill[1] = Kills[1] + 1

You can make an if/then/else for each player. Kills is a variable of type integer and has an array size of how many players you have. For gold you can do this:

Events
Player 1(Red)'a gold becomes equal to or geater than 0.00
Conditions
Actions
Set Gold[1] = Player 1(Red)'s current gold

Make the event for each player you want to keep track of and add an if/then/else and make the condition like "If (Triggering player) equal to Player 1(Red)". the variable gold is the same type of integer as te kills variable. For hero deaths do the same thing as the kills one but add the condition "(Dying unit) is a hero equal to true".
