Yes, by setting `gnus-summary-highlight', either directly or by typing
`M-x customize RET' and modifying the `Summary Line Highlighting'
field.

Be warned that it is rather complicated either way.  You need to
change `(> score default)' to `(> score (+ default 10))' each place it
occur in the definition of that value

Yep.  Type `L A' when you decide that it was a mistake to read that
author.
