I think that could be overcome.  By protecting a larger area from
ownership.  We could, for example specify a free corridor at
{(0,100)(-1,1)(-1,1)(-1,1)}.

The main difference between this and the grid is that movement on the grid
is, so far as I can see, entirely unrelated to anything outside of the
grid.  Although my proposal is about property areas and a monopoly-like
game of rent paying and control of areas, it could easily be changed into
a grid-like hunt-the-treasure game.  Or the two could be combined.

I'll see if a way can be made to combine this with the Grid proposal, and
I'll also try to make it a little less dangerous for new people.
