What are you like?
I don't really know if this belongs here or in the tavern.
Anyway since all kind of tests are around again I thought I'd post this here.
What am I like?
It's a personality test from BBC.
My answers suggest that I'm a Resolver.
The four aspects that make up this personality type are:
Spontaneous, Facts, Heads and Introvert
Summary of Resolvers
* Good at getting to the heart of a problem and quickly finding a solution
* Make rational decisions using the facts available
* Think of themselves as understanding, stable and easy-going
* May focus on short-term results and lose sight of the big picture
More about Resolvers
Resolvers are independent people who quietly learn how things work by analysing large amounts of information. Should a problem arise, they solve it with as little fuss as possible. Resolvers are only interested in abstract ideas, if they can be used to solve a problem quickly.
Resolvers like to take risks: Many of them seek jobs and pastimes that put them in harms way and guarantee an adrenaline rush.
Resolvers have changed jobs most frequently since leaving full-time education, according to a UK survey.
Resolvers are often tolerant of behaviour different to their own as long as their values aren't compromised. They sometimes give the impression that they agree with other peoples' viewpoints because they don't actively disagree.
In situations where they can't use their talents or are unappreciated, Resolvers may become cynical, negatively critical or put off decisions. Under extreme stress, Resolvers could be prone to inappropriate, tearful outbursts.
Resolvers are quiet and sometimes it is difficult to get to know them; however, they often talk freely about subjects they understand well.
Resolver Careers
Resolvers are often drawn to hands-on jobs that require an analytical mind and careful organisation of large amounts of data.
It's important to remember that no survey can predict personality type with 100 percent accuracy. Experts say that we should use personality type to better understand ourselves and others, but shouldn't feel restricted by our results.

Lol Ceres was right 
Your answers suggest you are an Idealist
The four aspects that make up this personality type are:
Summary of Idealists
* Make sense of the world using inner values
* Focus on personal growth and the growth of others
* Think of themselves as bright, forgiving and curious
* May sometimes appear stubborn
Check, that's me! 
More about Idealists
Idealists put time and energy into developing personal values that they use as a guide through life. They may seek fulfilment by helping others improve themselves and often want to make the world a better place. Idealists only share their inner values with people they respect.
Idealists are the most likely group to say they are vegetarian, according to a UK survey.
Uh no, I like meat 
Idealists enjoy discussions about a wide range of topics, particularly those that deal with the future. They are typically easy-going and flexible, but if their values are challenged they may refuse to compromise.
In situations where they can’t use their talents or are unappreciated, Idealists may have trouble expressing themselves and withdraw. Under extreme stress, Idealists may become very critical of others, or lose confidence in their own ability to cope.
Almost. Last time I had lost my confidence I was feeling lost but now I know my place and my worth whether I can help in a situation or not. I always keep critical responses to a minimum even under stress.
Recognition for their work is important to Idealists; however, they are also good at spotting false praise.
You bet 
Idealist Careers
Idealists are often drawn to jobs where they can help people reach their potential. They are also attracted to careers that allow artistic creativity.
I'm not so sure about that but I like creativity.

Yes...this is because of special symbols used for the link's name. One of these symbols is the apostroph (here's). Delete this apostroph, then it will work fine.

Apparently I'm a leader. Take a look.
It tells I'm a person of ideas, not facts, but it's actually half-half. I don't think that having ideas mean you don't know and consider the facts.
Anyway, all the rest fits me pretty well.
-Natural managers who strive for efficiency
-See the big picture and make strategic plans for the future
-Think of themselves as bright, independent and logical
-May overlook other people's need for emotional support

Interesting!
My score: 
And I'm a Big Thinker:
"Summary of Big-Thinkers
* Outspoken, ingenious and bored by routine
* Think of themselves as talkative, curious and self-sufficient
* May neglect the routine work required to make their plans successful
"
100% true, the thing I hate the most is ROUTINE!
very nice test, albeit the questions were too obvious. I'd rather see a more complex one.

D'uh 20 questions. It does have a point in some though but of course getting accurate results from a test over something as complicated as a human character is not easy.
