 		There's a song by "dirty Vegas" called "Days go by". I don't know if that helps... is there any way we can translate that text file into a song?

 		also, I got this email too:

which, comes out to:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
R_Darkblade: Right, playing cards. Only it breaks part of the stone and puts that piece into the card, and then shoots the card into its victim. The stone has intense destruction powers and charges the card with energy... black energy we assume. Most likely it's the crystal of death because it seems to be the reverse of the energy that awful Medic girl uses.


Also, it was named: "Capture 1"

 		Okay, I've been trying to put capture1 in order, but I think we are still missing a couple of pieces.

I think it starts like this:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):

RUN FILE transcripts//shadow_government//dirty_vegas.txt
R_Darkblade : Right, The techs down in the lab figured out how to control that stone piece that we retrieved from the Brazillian jungles, and from that they have created a weapon that fires card.
Lavie: What? It fires cards? like playing cards?
R_Darkblade: Right, playing cards. Only it breaks part of the stone and puts that piece into the card, and then shoots the card into its victim. The stone has intense destruction powers and charges the card with energy... black energy we assume. Most likely it's the crystal of death because it seems to be the reverse of the energy that awful Medic girl uses.
McGaffey: OK, you have a gun that shoots cards, so?
R_Darkblade: Well, we're going to need to test it's destructive powers...
And we need test subjects...
LaVie: And your proposal Darkblade? Because I know you have one.
R_Darkblade: We test the gun on a couple drunken kids who are having a booze party in the forests of Pottsville.. the gun maims and paralyses more than it destroys, so all the kids will remember when they wake up is nothing. They'll hopefully be too drunk to remember the paralysis incident.
Sir_Shadown: And you think this gun packs enough paralysis power to take down a member of Section 32?


then i think we may be missing a bit.. then this seems to go together:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):


Vargus: *Laughs*
R_Darkblade: You have an objection already, Gen. Vargus?
Vargus: Yeah, because I'm watching these "Days GO By"!
R_Darkblade: I’m sorry?
Vargus: Did we have to name the project after a new-age techno band?
Sir_Shadown: I came up with that project name.
Vargus: Sorry sir.
Sir_Shadown: Damn straight. Rowen, continue.


And I have no idea about how this section fits in:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

LaVie & Rockwell: Ehem...
R_Darkblade: And ladies. Well how about generals in general ?
* Muffled laughter *


I think the Dirty Vegas song must be a clue of some sort - perhaps next time Emily turns up we should ask her if she has it?

 		I'm going to mark this solved. The missing pieces have likely gone to idle players or people who are not on UF.
