Sorry, I guess my original post wasn't clear. The GDC can legally change the values, but can't without completely changing the game and what mechanisms teams should have focused on. For weeks everything has been focused on those center containers; by changing the rules the best designs will become those robots focused on stacking totes very fast.

So yes, they can change the values, but they basically change the entire game. And they definitely can't change it without a very long thread on CD discussing whether they should or shouldn't have done so...

I'm not saying I like the fact that games will be decided in the first 0.1sec or so. I'm just saying that it has been this way so far, and to change it at this point will be...very interesting.
