I hit start and 90% of the time nothing happens. The other 10% of the time, Flash crashes.

I'm using Chrome stable on Ubuntu 12.04. I have no extensions besides Adblock Plus. This is the only page I've encountered that crashes Flash on my computer.

Just blow on it.
It's all 3D, so likely to be a graphics acceleration issue.
The only extention you have blocks ads, and you're tying to watch/play an interactive ad.
That's rather meta, isn't it?
It's an ad. Turn off Adblock Plus. (worked for me)
I have the same setup and have had no issues. Do you have local storage on?
Works fine with Chromium Xubuntu 12.04 for me. Extensions out the wazoo.
works fine for me with the same setup
Hmmm, same setup and it didn't work for me in Chrome, only in Firefox. Did you install any special flash stuff? Any tips would be appreciated.
Everything is normal..(also have AB+ and ghostery) worth mentioning that on checking it is v20 of chromium (ie from the software center), v23 is apparently the current stable chrome version.. are you using that?
Move to Firefox. I too am on Ubuntu 12.04 and never had a problem.
