You are Gordon Freeman, working at the Black Mesa Research Facility. One day, you are told to push a strange substance core into a research device, which, you are told, has a small chance of unleashing a resonance cascade. Do you? _Poll ([view on site](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/polls-only-no-discussion/953642/3632))_ A man in a suit and tie, carrying a briefcase, introduces himself as the G-Man and accompanies you on much of your battle for life. At the end, the G-Man tells you his employers are impressed by your abilities and want to hire you. He opens a door, and green sparks are flying in a portal. If you agree and jump into the portal, you will enter the next phase, working with the G-Man and his employers (whoever they are.) If you refuse, you will be given a different outcome, which the G-Man warns will be “…anticlimactic.” _Poll ([view on site](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/polls-only-no-discussion/953642/3632))_ ---
