Multiplayer game development in flash


Before you say that it is a repost of this question- Alternatives to Flash Media Server for multiplayer game development, it is slightly different as I am asking for pros and cons.

I want to know which server I should use for my specific flash game. I am making a game called mathlympics. The idea is that the player has to answer simple arithmetic questions. The faster he answers the questions, the faster his athlete runs. I am making the game 3d using away3d engine for flash. A similar 2d example can be seen here

I want to make my game multiplayer, so that the different players could play against each other live at the same time.

Now I would like to know the pros and cons of the different engines.

I do not which one is best. What are the pros and cons of each. Which one is easiest to use and which one suits my game best? If there are any other engines out there which might me more relevant to me, then please free to suggest?
