This is a game of chance and a monument for one of the first distress signals for radio use previous to S.O.S. The Morse code operated for a few years (1904-1906), and due to inefficiency issues was never adopted as a standard. At the second International Radio Telegraphic Convention in 1906, it was decided to adopt the German Standard of S.O.S. The text on the balls is a false but popular interpretation of the meaning of the code – "Come Quick, Danger", "Come Quickly: Distress", "Come Quick—Drowning". This is an attempt to formulate a sentence where each option embodies a state of emergency or potential for violence.
