card, click the "Load Card..." button (or go to File -> Load Card...) to load an
existing card for editing.

match setup window, where you can edit the match to your liking. Click "Ok"
in the match setup window to add the match to the card.
Each match also has a set of buttons for editing, deleting, and moving the position of
the match on the card:

- "Delete": This will remove the match from the card. You'll be asked to confirm
that you need to delete the match from the card.
- "Move Up": Move the match up the card.
- "Move Down": Move the match down the card.
To save the card, go to File -> Save Card (or use the keyboard shortcut CTRL-S or
CMD-S on the Mac)
To delete an existing card, go to File -> Delete Card... and you will be prompted
to to choose a card to delete.
To close the current card and go back to the Home screen of the card editor, go to
File -> Close Card (or use the keyboard shortcut CTRL-W or CMD-W on the Mac)
To quit the card editor, go to File -> Quit Card Editor
Running a card

running, editing, deleting, and moving the position of the match on the card:
- "Run": This will run the match.
- "Edit": This will bring up the match setup window and you can edit the match as

"Save" button to save the card.
New Preferences
Ten new preferences were added to PWS. To access them, go to
File -> Edit Preferences... The following preferences were added in this
release:
- No Manager Rolls on XX: When this preference is turned on, managers will not
interfere on a XX roll during a match
- Three DCs in a row to activate manager instead of three OCs: When this preference is
turned on, there will be an opportunity for the manager to interfere in the match after
3 DC rolls in a row instead of 3 OC rolls.
- Advance to next round when both men-in roll DC: With this preference, when both men-in
roll DC, both men-in will get zero points and the match will advance to the next round
instead of both men-in re-rolling on their General Cards.
- Default Promotion: You can now choose a default promotion. When a default promotion is
set, PWS will automatically set itself to use the default promotion when it starts up.
Preferences were also added which allow you to set defaults for the follwing match setup
options:
- Dramatic Pause

- Real Time Countouts

Re-Generating the Wrestler Database
From time to time, the wrestler database can get corrupted and cause all sorts of strange
errors to occur. When you encounter problems like matches crashing, wrestler naming
inconsistency, or other seemingly strange errors; it's a good idea to re-generate the
wrestler database to make sure that it's not causing the problem. To re-generate the
wrestler database go to Help -> Re-Generate Wrestler Database
