Metal and flesh, but mostly the latter; Withers trees, buries mountains; Reduces oceans to mere fountains; Murders critters, tortures men, And matters not if they're a friend.

What an interesting poetry, anonymous person. Intricate, yet blunt: no points are thrown and no points are made.
One can only wonder of what secret you are unveiling. -Uni

>>72022 Yes, I don't quite think this riddle is as standalone as it appears. Time just doesn't fit for the answer. -CN

>>72026 They never are. It would be a child's play if that were the case. Either way, as much as we are concerned here, we feel that it may be tied heavily to an event in near future, but who knows what it is? -Uni

>>72033 Well if it's supposed to be a warning I can't help but think about that guy earlier at the concert... -CN

>>72038 Brilliant. You are where we at now, we feel that there is too many coincidences for it to be something of a joke.
There isn't anything we worry here, but we are faintly suspicious of the happenings that may unfold so very soon. -Uni

Post number #72075, ID: 225254

>>72043 Well yes. But now what is the actual answer in question. Because the more I think about it, this feels like this also goes with something else. -CN
Post number #72086, ID: 81d23c
|
>>72075 Most definitely. We are no expert at solving riddles, but what we can do best is see pattern in all this: all of the words of the poetry present a powerful existence.
Perhaps, said existence is not a "being" — nay, it may be closer to a concept. An action. -Uni

For something to decimate humans; for something to destroy what Earth has put; for something to attack so blindly.
A fit description for many, but what could it be, we wonder? -Uni

>>71953 I think I found the answer, it's an atomic bomb. Because the last sentence wouldn't make too much sense when the answer is time. But an atomic bomb destroys everything, doesn't matter if there is a friend. It destroys both metal and flesh, but when you go away from the initial blast radius it's mostly burning off flesh, when metal can still withold it. It can destroy everything, even mountains, and when you have enough bombs you could evaporate whole oceans. -°°

Holy shit, is someone planning to nuke the *Kira* Miki concert?
Post number #72204, ID: b3c804
|
>>72185 Welp, that news could drive down ticket prices. If you want to go, the next days would be probably a good opportunity to buy a tickets. And no worries, they can't just nuke a concert, like they will implement sum safety measures probably. -°°
Post number #72218, ID: 81d23c

>>7218 Marvellous! As expected of this board, we knew there'd be an answer that satisifies us. The problem now would be how we are going to implement the answer realistically.
One can only imagine if they nuke the concert and the entirety of Glitch City with it, after all, a nuke of any scale detonated in the concert would bring down Glitch Ciry with it.

>>72218 Not necessarily tbh. You could nuke it near the Concert, so its still near enough to kill a bunch of people, but not so big that it would pulverise the whole City. The only problem would be the radiation and fallout and shit. Like we won't die in an instant but hey, I don't have the pocket change for cancer treatment. But to make such an attack you would need a network for people, money, good coordination and a bunch of luck. Its very unlikely that something will happen-°°

Also, why would anyone post a riddle about this here if they are serious about it? Maybe to drive ticked prices down? Probably more likely.. -°°

Wait what if were over thinking this. Hold on let me try something. -CN
Post number #72242, ID: 81d23c

>>72228 We suppose there would be a scale for how devastating of a damage the nuke would do, yes. We are not an expert when it comes to explosive and anything beyond it, so all of the technical talk goes to the background.
You are very correct that this would be very hard to coordinate. A grand plan such as this is not laughing manner; besides, wouldn't such massive arsenal carry with it a huge attention as well? -Uni
Post number #72245, ID: 81d23c

>>72235 Precisely. Figuring what the poetry means is one step of the puzzle, now we have to reveal where the meaning would fit to the scheme of the world. -Uni
Post number #72254, ID: 1f7fb7
|
>>72242 you can just search for 'nuke map city' and find a bunch of good websites where you can see how big or small the devastation of different nukes can be. I would assume that the nuke wouldn't be too big so you can hide it better, maybe even just a classical dirty bomb.

This is more of our zone to talk about, finally. What if this simply are all a fearmongering? All of the actor that has been playing the game of puzzle are simply meant to push and heighten the fear of those coming to the concert?
Alas, it may even stop some from coming to the concert.
One can only think about so, at least. -Uni
Post number #72256, ID: 81d23c

>>72255 But to be unsure like this isn't our way of speaking, so we'll leave this at the point where we are sure at: it's an explosive; big or small, literally or metaphorically, it is an explosive.
We tip good luck to those in the case, we'll be hovering around the thread until another dot is ready to connect. -Uni

what if theyre trying to direct attn away from something? when defenses get pulled in to the concert they have to be coming from somewhere, right? probably not but just throwin ideas out there -IN1
