One thing I am pretty sure of is how the "turns" will run. To make it as unobtrusive as possible I think it will be timed such that every X number of minutes you "earn" a new turn.
So let's say it's every 5 minutes. You could take your turns as you get them every 5 minutes or let's say you get distracted for an hour... you would then have 12 turns (60/5) you could use all at once to catch up. Of course this is fine in the beginning of game play but as it gets closer to the end you would risk someone winning before you could catch up and solve things for yourself.
I am thinking a two hour game time is about right. Less then that is too hurried and more than that is probably too long.

Ugh. That sounds like one of those crappy FaceBook games.
