Elder Sign
Is the effect on the back of a facedown Gates of Arkham Adventure optional, and if it says 'may', can you still flip the card and attempt the Adventure?
The designer said the effect always happens, and a player's reading of the 'may' option agrees.

The effect itself always happens. Some demands are mandatory, while others give an optional choice. A 'may' is one such choice, so declining it does not stop you from flipping the card and attempting the Adventure.
