 In Golden Waters: Stories from the Seastead is a crowdsourced collection of short stories written by the goons at Something Awful. It was born from this threadnote Membership to the Something Awful forums and the archive upgrade are required to read it., which started out as a discussion of the Seasteading Institute, which plans to build artificial floating communities in international waters where potential leaders and visionaries could build new societies and experiment with new ideas of governance and social contract. From the start, discussion was dominated by the libertarian ideals that the project was founded upon, with people picking apart the Institute's plans from every direction and concluding that a real "seastead" built along such lines would quickly follow the same road as Rapture.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })From there, one goon started posting dystopian fiction set in a world where a seastead was actually built, and soon descended into a hell of class warfare, stratification, and utterly amoral business. Other goons followed in his wake and wrote their own stories. Eventually, the stories were edited into a single collection with a loose continuity. The full story can be read here.
