A Mary Sue that actually works

On the Universal Mary Sue Litmus Test , by my scoring, Sookie Stackhouse scores 144. Now maybe I scored her a little high on some questions; when I wasn’t sure, I gave her a point. Still, the fact remains that on that test, anything above 50 is scored as “Kill it dead” (i.e. "irretrievable, unrevisable Mary Sueness detected"), and I may have given her 5 extra points, but I sure didn't give her an extra 94 . Sookie is an over-the-top Mary Sue.
