[Embedded Flash Removed]

Can’t see the Flash game? Click here: Link

Update 5/19/07: Sorry guys, I didn’t realize how much problem the embedded flash would cause – it worked all right on my pre-scheduled test post. I’m out of town and didn’t get to check how it was till now (late at night). It’s removed, with my apologies.
