If you 0-0-0# you will get an achievement.

If you're looking at the first one on the top.

I was playing a stupid chess.com bot and it played 0-0-0#. is that the coolest mate or is en passant mate or smothered mate better?

there so should be an award for this kind of mate

There should be an award. Or maybe two awards, one for when a castling checkmate is the only option for immediate checkmate and another one for when it is not (e.g., in this example, Qb7# and Rb7# would have also worked). Which one should rank higher?

I have a question do you get the achievement for Castling Checkmate if its a bot and if yes what elo ? also does Castling Checkmate give you the killer king achievement at the same time ?
