RTW with OWE - which frequent flyer program should I join?

Hi,
I've purchased a RTW ticket with OWE, 4 continents, L-class (economy), 43,000 miles in total. I don't have FF points from previous flights.
I have a few questions:
1. If I join one of oneworld's airline's FF club, do I get the same credit per mile for flights I fly with other airlines in my OWE ticket?
2. BA have told me that they will give me only 25% because I fly in an economy class and the OWE is a discounted ticket. Which oneworld airline will give me the most credit for my miles?
My itinerary is:
TLV-LHR with BA
LHR-DEL with BA
DEL-HKG with CX
HKG-BKK with CX
BKK-HKG with CX
HKG-NRT with CX
NRT-SYD with QF
CNS-ASP with QF
AYQ-MEL with QF
HBA-SYD with QF
SYD-AKL with QF
AKL-SCL with QF, operated by LA
SCL-IPC with LA
IPC-SCL with LA
EZE-SCL with LA
SCL-SSA with LA
GIG-LHR with BA
LHR-AMS with BA
AMS-LHR with BA
LHR-TLV with BA
3. Can join the FF of an airline in which I don't fly with (such as AA)?
4. Can I enter lounges as soon as I start my trip or just from a certain mileage?

Thanks in advanced,
Gadi
