In which areas am I terribly lacking in ? Can someone point out my mistakes... hold no punches please :)
Thanks a lot.

ok,here goes the opening is kinda lack for black.i dont know if you are playing some kind of hypermodern system or just didnt the basic so i dont go in there,but white have some initiative.i think you didnt see your knight at a6 get batteried by the bishop at c4 and the queen at e2,so you lose a piece there.plus after the exchange at d5,white win another piece at d5 .so basiclly i think you just lack in vision.

lordnguyenvo yes, this opening is actually out of my scope.. I very rarely meet with Nf3, so I thought maybe b6, Bb7 was a good way... but was seriously mistakened though.....
actually I saw the queen and bishop trying to take my knight, but I thought maybe I can castle first, for a safer king... guess that was a really gross oversight...
anything else ?

Your problems... ...started in the opening.3...Nc6 was a mistake,as you blocked the Bb7 on the long diagonal. This N usually goes to d7 ,where it supports a break at either c5 or e5.Then you lost several tempi with the same N,and then hanging it,and then another piece was just icing on the cake. Whites Q sac was nice and sound,as your K was buried by the 4 White pieces.Your Q and R were totally out of the picture,and could do nothing to stop the mate.

leave the name alone man ;) first of all,Nc3 wasnt a ruy lopez move since the idea of ruy lopez is to pressure black with c3 and d4.i think you shouldnt take the e5 pawn.

white_disc, you are not permitted to seek advice or assistance regarding any game currently in progress (the second game snippet you posted).

I think..... you screwed up beacause you weren't careful enough. Watch out for your pieces and you'll do fine.

My 2 cents worth 3... Nc6 is not a "book" move but I have to disagree with myway316 , I don't think it is a "bad" move, although 3... e6 was to be preferred. WGM Chiburdanidze won a game with playing the Knight to c6, as so has IM Csom. However, yes, myway316 is correct in saying that the Knight usually goes to d7. I just dont think the move is a blunder, that's all.
Instead of 8... Nf6, maybe 8... Bd6 9.o-o Ne7 would have been a better defensive piece placement.
10... o-o is a grave blunder. 10... Nb8 followed by 11... Kf8 was neccessary. However, if one insist on castling... even at the cost of a piece... then 11... Bxa6 followed by 12... c5 would allow (some) counterplay.
However, I think the troubles started back with 5... Nb4. 5... Nb4 isn't a tactical blunder (it loses no material) but I think it is a positional blunder (gives Black a bad position). 5... Nce7 6.Bc4 Nf6 7.o-o c6 8.Bg5 seems much better.
