Just happened to come here doing a search of my previous posts and noticed your message. Probably best to ask such questions in the forum, in this case on the comp page for comp 214, since most of us don't look at our own page to see we have a message. Nonetheless, in answer to your question, "show flavors" is a user option - feel free to change user options to your heart's content. Only "birth options" can't be changed for a comp. And, technically, you should reload the original starting savefile on a death, rather than use the rebirth screen, else the @'s are no longer comparable (hit point progression, town layout, etc., would be changed).
