I've been digging deep into information provided by ingsoc.org and reddit. There's some compelling new evidence I think yall might wanna take a look at. Some or all of this info could just be coincidental, but it's worth presenting in case it turns out to be the work of Kojima. Myself and other people suspect Kojima due to the unorthodox nature in which he has promoted his recent works. First there was Moby Dick Studios and Joakim Mogren, a ruse to mask the creation of Phantom Pain. Then PT, an elaborate teaser for Silent Hills. Then the whole head transplant ordeal involving Dr Canavero threatening to sue Konami/Kojima.

Reddit posted this link to a video uploaded yesterday: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4XoceYrw1c4

According to reddit/neogaf, this is the translation: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=178471985&postcount=1552

It may hold no significance whatsoever, but the video is 1:13 long. I searched for any possible meaning behind the numbers 113.

In Silent Hill Homecoming, there is a room numbered 113. According to Silent Hill Wikia, the room contains a memo titled "BYLAWS". I'm sharing the memo in case anything remotely related to ingsoc.org can be found within it:
 * 1. Commitment
 * All Members of the Order must have fully committed themselves to this purpose in their beliefs, their activities and their lives.
 * 2. Membership
 * Membership within the Order is extended to all that seek the Old Ways.
 * A. Levels of Membership
 * a. Mother Circle
 * -The Mother is considered the founding group of the Order. The name of the founding group is The Mother.
 * b. Daughter Circle
 * -Any Second Generation group hived off of The Mother.
 * c. Servant Circle
 * -Any Third Generation group stemming from The Mother.
 * 3. The High Council
 * The High Council is set in place as a tool for all within the Order to make use of. The purpose of the High Council shall be to aid in the process of group formation as needed, act as a governing body in matters pertaining to the Order as a whole, and to be a judge/jury if asked to settle disputes.
 * 4. Grievances and Discipline Procedures
 * All decisions made by the High Council are binding. Presenting your case before the Council implies your acceptance of their decision. Those seeking mediation must contact the Scribe.
 * a. The High Council shall be called in to preside over disputes within a group to hear complaints and accusations of inappropriate acts, abuse of power by leaders and any other complaints that are deemed worthy to preserve the public image or internal integrity of the Order.
 * b. The nature of the disciplinary action shall be decided at the sole discretion of The High Council. These actions shall contain, but not be limited to, assignment of manual labor, persecution of an individual member, banishment of an individual member, and banishment of a group.
 * c. If an individual member wishes to leave the Order, they are required to bring their request to the High Council.

There's the possibility that ingsoc.org and the video aren't referring to this at all. It could be referring to mission 113 of Phantom Pain. What exactly would be in mission 113 worth referencing? I haven't played the mission, so I don't know.

I also did a search for what could be in Nevada. I discovered there is a location named "Silent Hill Drive" in Las Vegas. There was an article a few months ago discussing Konami and their suppoort for a gambling las in Nevada: http://www.polygon.com/2015/5/16/8614961/konami-gambling-gaming-mobile-kojima-silent-hills-metal-gear

As many may already be aware, Konami and Kojima had a falling due to business changes within the company, and Konami wanting to focus on the gambling market.

It should be worth noting that there's a Silent Hill (perhaps several) in Russia:

There are also upcoming tours for the Silent Hill Band in Russia:

Once again, any and all of this information could be mere coincidence. Ingsoc (or Newspeak) is a reference to 1984, which has been heavily referenced in Phantom Pain along with its themes of language. There is a term stemming from Ingsoc, which is "unperson". It refers to someone who has been erased. Last night, ingsoc.org briefly posted a photo of a man who works in the gaming industry. The photo said "don't believe his lies", before it was removed. The site was also briefly shut down. This is reminiscent of Newspeak, the control of information, and the erasing of knowledge individuals. A general idea which was based on the Soviet "nonperson" and removal of people from photographic evidence.

You can read more about Newspeak on the Wikipedia page:

Silent Hills and Phantom Pain have crossed over. So it would be no stretch of the imagination if ingsoc.org were in reality a Kojima production.
