I am perplexed as to how so many of my "friends" are getting such galactically-high scores. I have 100 friends and the number one scorer has over 46,000 points. The second and third place scorers have over 10,000 points. I am struggling to get over 5,000 points. And I'm on this stupid game several times every single day, visiting their SF's and tapping the hell out of everything I can find. How are these people getting such astronomically high scores? At this rate, I might be lucky if I get Hugo, but I have serious doubts as to whether I'll even get close to getting a pumpkin house, much less other expensive prizes. What gives????

Okay that's quite a confused message you're sending there! You seem to be talking about two different things there. What's your most pressing issue? I'm sure we can help!!

I think your reply was more confusing than my original question (and there is only one question). So I'll simplify by just asking: how is it possible to amass over 46,000 points (now over 49,000) on the Friend Leaderboard in so short a time?

Okay, thanks for simplifying for me. I've got about 46k myself, and I managed it myself for one reason: I have a second Springfield that I send Grem-Aliens to 10 at a time. I purposefully don't tap them in my other Springfield, which four hours later gets me 40 probes. That also shot me up my friends' leaderboard. I was always 15th with no chance of progressing up the leaderboard, until I utlilised my second Springfield.
Two points on this tactic:
I wouldn't start doing this now, unless u need probes, wait a day so that you get laser guns instead.
Second, while progressing up the friends' leaderboard is fun and an ego boost, topping you're friends' leaderboard offers no practical benefit. This score also has nothing to do with you're ability to acquire Hugo and other crafting items. Is that what you were mentioning originally?

Thanks for your reply. Well here's the thing. I've done exactly the same thing as you. I have a second Springfield and I've been sending grem-Aliens to it as well over the past two weeks. However I have not amassed anywhere near the number of probe points that you have. I'm not sure how long you have had access to this game scenario, but it must've been way longer than mine. I have only had the game for two weeks. In order to get the kind of numbers that you are amassing, I would have to gain 2000 to 3000 probes every day. I don't see how that is even possible. Are you sure that you aren't spending donuts on probes? What am I missing???
