the option -mg works only with 2 engines at the same time unter Winboard and not
online. For example:

C:\Program Files\Winboard\winboard.exe -cp -fcp 'GNUChes5 xboard' -scp GNUChess
-mg 4
(GNUChess 5 vs. GNUChess 4)

C:\Program Files\Winboard\winboard.exe -cp -fcp 'GNUChes5 xboard' -scp
"winboard232c -com2" -mg 4
(GNUChess vs. Fritz)

Some people are using "autorematch". But I don't know how this works.
