Riddle - What does it mean?
$begingroup$
What am I? 03/04/19 13:36 UTC
This is very abundant
The most that you'll see
And its group and number
Is what you will need
Now somewhat repetetive
For you who are us
You may now start the task
From now, not before
You use this to move
Or choose where to go
How much am I spotty?
You need to know
Some think this will curse you
But they've got it wrong
Not quite a domino
How many of me?
If your friend in Jakarta
Wants you to get on the horn
Then to be direct
Just remember me
Take dozen of the best
Not more, not less
Now look to the last
And there this will rest
Hint #1: 03/04/19 18:48 UTC
Though once I was rejected
I am now well known
For I am a part of
All that are equal and right
Hint #2: 04/04/19 13:30 UTC
Work out what each is
For it's a joint effort
Then take them conjointly
And then you will know what I am
Hint #3: 04/04/19 22:33 UTC
If you value your pieces
Then put them together
You will soon find
You're close to the answer
Hint #4: 06/04/19 18:57 UTC
Though I'm very well known
No one can tell you what I am
I'm quite small, but I never end
And you can work on me forever
Do you like it? This is my first riddle, so sorry if it's not too good. Not sure what tags I should include to avoid giving extra hints. Note: the timestamps are just that, timestamps. All you need is in the stanzas.

Very nice riddle! Some tag suggestions: If the answer is a single word, include the "word" tag. The "poetry" tag would almost certainly be appropriate, since your riddle appears to be in poem form. If you have any wordplay involved, there's a "wordplay" tag. If any unusual knowledge is required, throw in a "knowledge" tag - the absence or presence of this tag is typically very important.

Wordplay is essentially a fancy way of saying "puns." I guess no one wanted to make a "pun" tag :)

are you
international phone number such as the one for Indonesia ( Jakarta) +62 21 xxx xxxx
This is very abundant
The most that you'll see
And its group and number
Is what you will need
It is abundant as almost everyone has a phone number. A phone number has "section" / "groups" of numbers. It is necessary it today's world
Now somewhat repetitive
For you who are us
You may now start the task
From now, not before
us as in United States. You have to enter coutnry code while calling internationally. The reference to starting the task can be attributed to the following:
When calling international numbers there is a wait between entering the country code and then entering area code followed by the number. Sometimes this is guided by a voice over "please enter your xx now"
You use this to move
Or choose where to go
How much am I spotty?
You need to know
you can transfer phone numbers (i.e. move ) , you can also choose your own phone number . Spotty as in spotty phone signal. Need to know the coverage.
Some think this will curse you
But they've got it wrong
Not quite a domino
How many of me?
There was/is a trend of cell phone signal causing cancer ( i.e. curse you) But there is no evidence to this.
If your friend in Jakarta
Wants you to get on the horn
Then to be direct
Just remember me
Jakarta is the capital of Indonesia. "to get on the horn" means to speak to someone on the phone. There is international direct dialing.
Take dozen of the best
Not more, not less
Now look to the last
And there this will rest
Indonesian phone numbers, when called internationally, are dialed using 12 characters. example: +62 21 xxx xxxx

@ArtemisFowl latest clue still makes me think its an analog clock with the hour and minute hand pointing. ( Work out what each is) need both to tell time(For it's a joint effort,Then take them conjointly) you then will know what time it is.(And then you will know what I am ) . The first hint also fits ; change in Swiss clocks were once rejected

are you
carbon
Carbon is the 15th most abundant element. Used as fuel in its appropriate form ( use it to move) . There is the curse of the diamond
carbon's atomic mass is 12 ( dozen of the best) . Carbon has pi bonds (cue pi mall in Indonesia) . Also Carbon 12 is most common.

@ArtemisFowl latest clue still makes me think its an analog clock with the hour and minute hand pointing. ( Work out what each is) need both to tell time(For it's a joint effort,Then take them conjointly) you then will know what time it is.(And then you will know what I am ) . The first hint also fits ; change in Swiss clocks were once rejected

This is very abundant
The most that you'll see
And its group and
number Is what you will need
Are you
hydrogen? oxygen? or H20- group and number derived from periodic table of elements?

Very close, pay attention to line 2. This is only a partial answer, you'll need the entire riddle.

are you
carbon
Carbon is the 15th most abundant element. Used as fuel in its appropriate form ( use it to move) . There is the curse of the diamond
carbon's atomic mass is 12 ( dozen of the best) . Carbon has pi bonds (cue pi mall in Indonesia) . Also Carbon 12 is most common.

Very nice riddle! Some tag suggestions: If the answer is a single word, include the "word" tag. The "poetry" tag would almost certainly be appropriate, since your riddle appears to be in poem form. If you have any wordplay involved, there's a "wordplay" tag. If any unusual knowledge is required, throw in a "knowledge" tag - the absence or presence of this tag is typically very important.

@Brandon_J Does unusual word/phrase choices go under

Wordplay is essentially a fancy way of saying "puns." I guess no one wanted to make a "pun" tag :)

@ArtemisFowl the number pi? it was once rejected by the senate. There is a mall in Indonesia which abbreviates to pi mall.
