Of course they are keeping secrets!

Chess com has repeatedly declined to tell me who put the bop in the bop-she-bop-she-bop.

Which bop are you referring to? I can try to ask...doubt my request will go through either!

I don't see it in my profile, but I'm sure I got one for winning a game with less than 1 second on my clock.  Don't remember what it's called though.

In German it´s "In letzter Sekunde", in or at the last second.

"Nick of Time" in English!

Now, I'm not saying that I may once have had a second account, because that would be illegal.  But I do note that it's not in my profile.

There are definitely hidden achievements - you can get one for checkmating with a rook

Quoting @kAtalan_csaT , "Yes, there are as many as 48 Achievements that are initially hidden (if I counted them right)! A brand new user account can see only 88 Achievements".

The ones that I know of are:

  • Killer King: Deliver checkmate with a king, by discovered checkmate
  • Castle Victory: Deliver checkmate by castling
  • Full Day: Solve rated puzzles for a total of 24 hours
  • Hot Streak: Get 10 rated puzzles correct in a row
  • Searching for Bobby Fisher: Go to Bobby Fischer's profile in the Master Games database
  • Juggler: Play 20 daily chess games at once
  • The Holiday Achievements for beating each of the bots: Precious Snowflake, Nutcracker, Full Stocking, Jingle Bell, and Holly Berry

That's all that I know of currently

You missed 2, Man vs Machine (for versing a bot in a live game, which is impossible to get right now) and Good Read (for getting 100 views on a blog post).
