Change to Nil Bonus?

Is it possible to add another nil bonus? I have a few friends I play with and after much discussion we wondered if it was possible to add a third option to the nil bonus. We'd like another option to make it 70 points instead of just the 50 or 100.

Wonderful idea. I can add these suggestions:
1) nil: 70 & blind nil: 140
2) nil: 50 & blind nil: 100

100 nil point ruins all game. Everybody focuses on nil. And also 200 blind nil is completely unjust.

I agree that 200 for blind nil with passing is absolutely insane. A very valid strategy is to set yourself early to give the opponents some bags and go down by 100 and then shoot past them with a blind nil...assuming you could look yourself in the mirror after perverting the game so extremely.
