I don't know yet whether I'll play/team up with OH, but this is a very important subject.
I think every player, who joins this game should be commited to actually playing the turns with at least some thought even after he feels that he has lost the game. Practically gifting your cities away by not whipping defenders or through some other behaviour that just ignores what is happening in the game simply destroys the fun for all the players. Nobody wants to win because a neighbor just stops playing or lose because a competitor gets an empire for free. If one simply refuses to play turns when losing then one should ask for a sub or at least retire to AI. It sounds like this game will have settings that embrace randomness and of course what your neighbors do also adds to that, but I hope that we could this time avoid the most lame events. Even a casual game will take a lot of time and with so many players involved it is important that everyone has somewhat sporting attitude.
