You should all know the 200,000,000+ scores are by cheaters. As of this posting y0ttbyte is the one true Solipskier. (we'll be fixing this in an update shortly)
We just fixed a bug with the high scores. If you were going for a high score and it wasn't showing up on the leaderboard before, it will now. Make sure to refresh before you start your attempt though.
@Phoenix Wright huh? I think you're just seeing the numbers go up as a result of staying in a straight line or grazing off the side of an obstacle.

Advancement is a direct function of skill. Advancement = wins. Winning takes skill and strategy. The only thing time has to do with it is the fact that it takes time to build skill and strategy. Some longer than others.
I'm guessing you're one of the many who don't have the patience or mental fortitude to develop the skills necessary for victory.
That's fine, this isn't the game for you. Stick to Sonny, that's a function of time.
@talkingtree
That only happens during the first 60 seconds of a match. Additionally, if someone does refresh/quit during that time, they lose 5 points off your rating but the loss isn't recorded. If they quit after 60 seconds, it's treated as a loss and the proper amount of points is awarded/deducted for both players.
the difference between a beta and a gold version is more or less negligible to the untrained eye. A beta allows us to work out all the bugs, perhaps add one or two features, but the primary reason for it is to fix bugs and make the game run more smoothly. If you're looking for 2v2 or 3v3, that's a feature for a sequel or a whole other game entirely.
