I am so impressed that you were able to figure so many things out in the puzzle! I feel like I would never be able to do that, but I feel like all that is needed is a lot of patience, a lot of time, and a lot of deep thought.

Cicada was/is a cypherpunk recruitment effort.
Apparently the email I was thinking of where they describe their goals is, in fact, PGP-signed.
Still, quite ARG-like.
