"Which sinners were excluded when he gave his life on the cross?"
The reprobate were excluded. John 10:14,26-27. Not all hear His voice for not all are His sheep. He gave His life for His sheep AND He gives them eternal life. His atonement is effectual, not just potential.

Well said. John 17 (the TRUE Lord's Prayer) shows that not everyone is party to His finishing work (e.g. John 17:9-I pray for them: I pray not for the world, but for them which thou hast given me; for they are thine).

Where does the man ask for forgiveness?
Luke 23:40But the other criminal rebuked him. "Don't you fear God," he said, "since you are under the same sentence? 41We are punished justly, for we are getting what our deeds deserve. But this man has done nothing wrong." 42Then he said, "Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom.[a]"
