Cicada 3301

[SantaClaws]

So I don't know if many, or anyone of you have heard of this secret internet organization who calls themselves Cicada 3301. Not much Is known about these people or organization and what they do is leave a series of hints clues and coded messages all over the internet. Nobody really knows what they do or why they are doing this, all anybody knows is that they did the same thing last year on the exact same day. They started last year January 4th 2013, and started a new one January 4th 2014. Things like this keep me up at night, I've tried so hard to understand but I can't follow anything for the life of me. Anyway take a look at this youtube video and see if you guys can understand any of it. I'll also link a discussion forum going more into depth how to crack the codes as well as a team trying to solve the current puzzle.
