The option for the GDC to change certain point values has been in the manual since 2012, and it has never been exercised.

Actually...

Type is correct, in his first sentence. The number of boulders required can change, and can change mid-match no less. It's called a Tech Foul, and if you commit one, you need to score one more boulder. Easy way to avoid that? Don't commit a Tech Foul.
