I think someone has already mentioned it, but L15A1 seems exactly on 
point.  It may not have been designed for this situation, but the 
literal text seems clear to me.  Of course it has that word "normally," 
which gives the TD discretion to do whatever he wants, but the only 
reason I can see for scrapping boards is if one team has done something 
nefarious and thereby benefited by causing the extra four boards to be 
played.  If that has happened, it should be fairly clear which boards to 
scrap.  If not, just issue a large PP to make sure the villains lose the 
match.

As someone else has mentioned, if VPs are used, you want to apply the 
correct scale.  Or just multiply the IMP difference by 24/28, which 
should be close enough.
