Just insert a monster turn in between each PC's turn. In fact, the upcoming 4e adventure, <a href="http://www.enworld.org/forum/en-publishing/319470-status-adventure-4-always-time.html" target="_blank">Always On Time</a> uses a de facto group initiative for a few setpiece encounters. /blatantselfpromotionEh.

Or even just a rule like "you can only do one free action in a turn that affects anything mechanically" might give some good guidelines.</blockquote>
