Multiboard Problems

Im having problems with getting my Multiboard to function properly

I used this guide: http://world-editor-tutorials.thehelper.net/multiboard.php

I apologise for the "mirrored" pictures, i dont know wtf happened when i took the screenies, but thats how they came out.

If you can manage to read it, it is all titled correctly.

But now where the titles "Kills" and "Deaths" were... There is now the number "0"
Below are my triggers, i haven't tested "Unit Level Update" as such, but i can only imagine it doesn't work either.

1. When do the titles change? When you get a kill or a death?
2. Use Revive (Triggering unit) instead of (Dying unit). If another unit dies it will clash with the trigger.
3. Put this in when you create the board:

Multiboard - Set the display style for (Last created multiboard) item in column 1, row 1 to Show text and Hide icons

Repeat this for all rows.

There is one trigger for dying, and another for getting a kill. Both of these triggers have the same error.

And my multiboard already has that action in it. It's in the first trigger I posted.

Yes, but it says column 1, row 1, column 2, row , column 3, row 3.....
The column must ALWAYS be 1.

In your death count and level count, it should say

Multiboard - Set the text for (Last created multiboard) item in column x, row Multiboard_Spot[(Player number of (Owner of (Killing unit)))] to (String(Kill_Count[(Player number of (Owner of (Killing unit)))])

x = 4 for deaths
x = 2 for level
