You wouldn't have to use a global, but you may choose to for performance.

Simple operation on a global : 20 ms
Same thing on a custom prop : 3324 ms

Also, you can do
    add 1 to gVariable
which is not only (I think) easier to read and understand as being an 
increment operation, but is also even faster.

Simple operation on a global : 20 ms
Same thing on a custom prop : 3324 ms
Same thing as an increment on a global : 13 ms
