Great, thanks for the really fast reply! :)

You do

<block someblock>
/ onblockend = [values.me_points = block.someblock.totalcorrectcount]
...
</block>

Thank you very much, that worked out perfectly! :)
One last question: If the participant's points depend on his achievement in another block, how do I put that?

<values>
/ me_points = block.blockname.totalcorrectcount
/ Jennifer_points = 15
...
/ deduceamount = 50
</values>

This was my idea, but it doesn't work. ;)

There should be no reason to "change" the text. It's preferable to use variables to keep track of the players' points and use simple math to adjust the amounts based on response:

<values>
/ me_points = 10
/ jennifer_points = 15
/ john_points = 5
/ matthew_points = 6
/ deduceamount = 10
</values>

<block myblock>
/ trials = [1-3=deducepointspage; 4=endpage]
</block>

<caption playerpoints>
/ caption = "Me: <%values.me_points%> points    Jennifer: <%values.jennifer_points%> points    John: <%values.john_points%> points    Matthew: <%values.matthew_points%> points"
</caption>

<radiobuttons deducepoints>
/ caption = "Deduce <%values.deduceamount%> points from"
/ options = ("Jennifer", "John", "Matthew")
</radiobuttons>

<surveypage deducepointspage>
/ ontrialend = [if (radiobuttons.deducepoints.response=="Jennifer") values.jennifer_points-=values.deduceamount; ]
/ ontrialend = [if (radiobuttons.deducepoints.response=="John") values.john_points-=values.deduceamount; ]
/ ontrialend = [if (radiobuttons.deducepoints.response=="Matthew") values.matthew_points-=values.deduceamount; ]
/ questions = [1=playerpoints; 2=deducepoints]
</surveypage>

<surveypage endpage>
/ questions = [1=playerpoints]
