Or is it essential to own at least one square? (Asking for a friend.)

alpenrose Oct 2019 4:22pm, 14 Oct 2019 41,374 posts	Quote Pin alpenrose I don't think that you need to own squares early on, just visit lots of different ones to stay in. That's how it appeared to me last time.

chunkywizard Oct 2019 4:27pm, 14 Oct 2019 6,745 posts	Quote Pin chunkywizard I think that's right. In the first week if you visit about 100 squares that enough. Saying that, it depends on how much everyone runs!
