Chess personality indicated I play like an assassin. I don't know what that means, but it sounds cool . . . As for "boby", I'm not so sure.

Place cursor over "More" (left on my screen), then click resources and look for Chess Personality.

The problem with playing like a certain type or style is that it implies the wrong idea.
Style is only relevant if you have a choice. If there is no choice you should try to play the best move.
It would be best not to try to play like a certain style you find cool. Although I get why thats a statisfying idea. Karpov and Ulf Andersson are my heros and I really enjoy the idea of playing like them. BUT that comes later.
How to find out whats your style?
I would advice you to analyse your own games and look for moments where you had a choice between two alternatives. Which alternative did you chose and why?
Did you choose the agressive over the solid option? Closed over open game?
Did you play for a mating attack or do you prefer the endgame?
With time you will realize what kind of games you prefer ...
Find your hero
My second advice is to look at grandmaster games of grandmasters you like.
Bobby Fisher is a fine choice i think. His plans are clear and you should pause after each move and guess what you would play. chessgames.com is a good site for this.
Other grandmasters to look up: Capablanca (endgame and positional play), Michael Tal (attacking genius). For finding games worth analysing try finding a game collection as these are annotated by players who are far better than us. For Fischer look up "My 60 memorable games". I think its easy to find a free pdf.
i tried this test http://www.chesspersonality.com/
and i found that i am most of the time assassin (attaking,agressive,calculating,calm)
but sometimes i find either mastermind or professinel
how this could be?
I took the test an it depicted me as a 'surgeon' (Lasker).
"Surgeons are tricky, practical players who use positional play to fight for a win in all positions. They don't usually gain big advantages early in the game, and sometimes even get worse positions; but the Surgeon is clever and knows how to fight. With great nerves and calculating ability, a Surgeon will uncover every hidden resource available to bring the game to a favorable conclusion."
Although after reading about all "chess personalities" I personally think I'm closer to an 'assassin' (Fischer) or a 'grinder' (Karpov).
