To my mind, the *ideal* answer would be to quietly approach every other player via private chat message, and, without saying anything to the glitcher, agree to unitedly silo, bomb and sub their continent until even the cockroaches are having thoughts about relocating to more hospitable climes.
No backstabs, no forming a proper alliance, just (in effect) write off the game for the great cause of teaching someone to be a better person lol.
If they go "what the hell?!" a polite "well, you bought it upon yourself..." would then suffice.
It'd be hideously good fun!
If the defcon community were really up for keeping a lid on glitching and exploiting, a thread with something like "The undersigned agree to join a temporary alliance in order to nuke seven kinds of crap out of anyone seen glitching..." would enable people to show their willingness to join such a pact if a game they were in was found to have someone using devious means lol.
Course it wouldn't stomp it out entirely but people could at least be sure that if they wanted to team up with other players mid-game to squish an exploiter, they could be sure that they wouldn't be backstabbed in doing so.
