Strategy aside at the end of the day it's a mixture of you having the weakest king from some poor choices on your part coupled with green's decision to attack you with yellow being passive that there isn't much to be said here. You weren't targeted by any means, you just didn't do yourself any favours given the situation at hand (for example capturing the bishop sac with your bishop instead of the rook first was a blunder).
Idiotic play, or a concerted effort to take out the top player?

I don't see the passive play from yellow. Also, blue is likely higher rated than his current rating shows.

Gold, you accept a 2250+ game and have a 2300 player in front, what did you expect? (Happens to me as well quite often because of the lack of 2500+ games, but I know the consequences).

Or more logically that the world hates you.

This is an interesting game where I get destroyed by having my opposite playing a horrible opening where none of his pieces had any meaningful development AND passed up more than one opportunity to win material. The player to my right sacrificed most of his material to take me out. It did not work out for either of them. The player to my left won the game, as I thought would be the case.
Maybe I am too conspiratorial, but everything just went against me in that game and yellow and green destroyed any chance of winning that game.
Any thoughts?
