 		Is this an ARG?
Hi guys, I'm new here. My friend at school, who's name is Justin, told me this new ARG was starting. I didn't really know what an ARG was until I looked into it yesterday. Today at school he wrote down this link on a piece of paper and gave it to me. He didn't say a word.

I haven't seen him since then, and I don't have any way to contact him right now. I could try to ask him tomorrow but he told me to go to an ARG news website yesterday and go on their chat, and they told me to come here. I went to that link and watched the video. Does anyone know what it means? Is there already a thread about this? Thanks.

 		Theres a link to a QR-tag in the caption: http://alturl.com/6jkdg.
I haven't learned how to use them yet, so maybe someone else wants to?

Edit: Sorry about the long link, replaced it with a shorter one.

 		I know the band, they're one of those more contemporary Christian bands... I wanna say like Jars of Clay or Casting Crowns, def somewhere like that. Not like Switchfoot or Reliant K.... Give me a few, I'll figure it out. :p

It leads to an untitled google doc that tells you to share the link with others

Imma tinurl it and see what happens, it worked with DNC. XD

Eh, didn't work. Any other ideas? And the... whatever "[]...][" thing?

 		Who was the doc created by? Maybe that's the email we have to respond to to say "Im in" or something.
