I toke the test on one of my characters, I got a score of -1.  :P And I think you should say that lower scores are better.
Everyone can paint a picture with words, but few can paint a picture with paint.

I think the concept of a Mary Sue type character is misunderstood by many and putting a character through a Mary Sue test is by no means a reliable method of judging the quality or fairness of that OC.

In my opinion, a Mary Sue is an unbelievably over idealized character; emphasis on "unbelievably". As a result, whether a character is considered a Mary Sue is subjective, as the line between believable and not believable vary from person to person. I will admit there is a point where a character is so idealized that it becomes simply impossible to validate the character. However, most of the problems I see with most of the OCs I would call Mary Sues are that there are no validations for that character's traits whatsoever. Development, build up, and foreshadowing can go a long way to make a character more believable (assuming it makes sense, of course).

I would not classify Guardian Dreamer as a Mary Sue, regardless of whatever traits about him match that test.
