Dear Inno,
it's 2011, please don't be forcefully loading Flash on every view of the game. Sounds are interesting (even though I'd be turning them off anyway so I can play from work), but the Flash plugin is a known cause of performance problems and crashes, and would make it impractical to go on playing the game the way I do. (My laptop at work is very low-power, I wouldn't want Flash to be in memory all the time.)
Using it for fort battles is fine, because that's a specific aspect of the game that I open only when I want to. Using it for reports is fine because there's a non-flash alternative. Using it on every view makes the game no longer something I want to keep open.
Additionally: some people prefer to play on multiple worlds by keeping a browser window open with one world on each tab. This update makes that impractical for two reasons: the Flash will make that browser crawl (especially on less powerful computers), and the sound from multiple worlds will pile up.
Thanks for the great work so far; the crafting system is a lot of fun and the new avatars seem cool. But if the game continues to transition to use more and more flash, I'm going to have to drop it.
