Can a homeowner request adverse possession of common area?
No. Adverse possession must be exclusive for the statutory period of time. Since a common element is used by multiple people, unless you can prove you were the only one who used the common area during the statutory period, you have no claim of adverse possession.
Under what circumstances does the time stop running in favor of a adverse possessor?
Since adverse possession must be exclusive, the time stops running whenever the squatter's (adverse possessor's) possession is interrupted. This can be even as simple as having a picnic table installed on the disputed land.
Can you get title to property through adverse possession for an 1' encroachment?
As long as you have satisfied your state's prerequisites to adverse possession with regard to the 1' piece of land, you may begin adverse possession proceedings. However, since the piece of land is only 1', you should seriously consider not pursuing an adverse possession claim. Not only will you have to pay an attorney to represent you in court, you also have to live next to the neighbor whose property you are adversely possessing. If you want to pursue adverse possession, it is highly recommended that you try mediation before going to court. (See below link.)
How long does it take in Ontario Canada to claim under property common law adverse possession?

May a Squatter claiming adverse possession property of neighbor and sues to quiet title finding another Squatter has claimed the same property by adverse possession who gets quiet title?
Preface: I had to read this question several times. Pardon my obvious confusion. All references are as to the laws of the State of Washington. Adverse possession can only be met by proving each of the following elements (Muench v. Oxley, 90 Wn. 2d. 637, 584 P2d. 939 (1978)): the possession must be open and notorious, actual and uninterrupted, hostile, exclusive, and under a claim made in good faith. The necessary period of possession is 10 years; however, one who possesses under color of title and pays taxes for 7 consecutive years can bring an adverse possession action at the end of the 7 year period (RCW 7.28.070). If one element of the test is missing, the property cannot be claimed by adverse possession. Clearly, if two different people claimed title to a property by adverse possession,and both used the property during the 10 year period, neither one would have had exclusive and uninterrupted possession of the property, thereby failing the second prong of the adverse possession test introduced in Muench v. Oxley. One could also claim that the possession was not open and notorious, as well. In conclusion, neither party would succeed in their adverse possession claim because they would fail to meet each element of the adverse possession test.
