Thanks for rising this issue - unfortunately at a first guess I'd say that making a mechanism to apply rules only to new games isn't much convenient so we may have to "disrupt" ongoing games.
Not great, but probably a necessary evil. If it takes a lot of BlueDragon's time to separate old games from new, and with the possibility of introducing new bugs, I'd say it's not worth it. Just drop the new code in.
Maybe an announcement well in advance, say 2-4 weeks, should give individual games a chance to finish, and league players to adjust tactics to the new scoring rules. At worst, they can always draw games if they don't want the rules to change in the middle of the game.
