Claims must be at least **10×10 blocks** and require enough ![:golden\_shovel:](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/1459657017139527983.webp?size=40)[**Claim Blocks**](#claim-blocks) to cover the selected area.

{% endstep %} {% step %} ### Claim Confirmation When a claim is created successfully, **gold blocks** will temporarily outline the full claim boundary. {% endstep %} {% endstepper %} ## Claim Blocks While holding a **Claiming Tool**, a chat message will indicate your current ![:golden\_shovel:](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/1459657017139527983.webp?size=40)**Claim Block** balance. Claim Blocks can be obtained through: * [Voting](/features/player/voting.md) (![:golden\_shovel:](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/1459657017139527983.webp?size=40)**100** per day) * [Vote Shop](/features/player/voting.md#vote-shop) * Playtime (![:golden\_shovel:](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/1459657017139527983.webp?size=40)**2** per minute) * Ultra Crate * [Donor Rank Upgrades](/features/donation-store.md#ranks) * Donor Rank Kits ## Management

### Permission Groups Permission Groups can be assigned to other players to control access within your claim: * Visitor: Can enter the claim at all times * Builder: Can place and break blocks * Manager: Full access to the claim and all permissions To assign a group to a player: open `/flan menu`, select **Edit Permission Groups**, choose **Visitor/Builder/Manager**, select **Add**, then enter the player’s exact username. ### Subclaims Subclaims are claims created inside an existing claim. They have their own permissions and **override** the parent claim’s permissions within the subclaim area. To create one, run `/flan switchMode SUBCLAIM`, then create it using the same corner-selection process as a normal claim. ### Global Permissions Global Permissions apply specific permissions to **all players** within your claim, allowing you to grant or revoke access claim-wide.
