B54 Sicilian: 2...d6 3.d4 cxd4 4.Nxd4, Unusual Lines (1.e4 c5 2.Nf3 d6 3.d4 cxd4 4.Nxd4 e5)

Not sure why this keeps happening from time to time, my rating my first increase hundred or two points and then it just spirals down in an unstoppable way. This has happened with my over the board ratings and with my online ratings. I do not think that my ability to play chess has dropped or increased that much over the last few months but results tell a harsh story. The first few months I played correspondence chess again after a long break, I started to get my ratings on different sites steadily better but now it does not matter what I do, I still seem to lose most of my games. It might be that I entered a time filled with blunders and I can only hope that I get rid of that bad habit. It is true that I messed up some games to clear blunders but I still think that there should not be that many anymore, so maybe I can turn this downward fall into an upward climb. There has been quite clear playing strength differences in the last games I have posted but as I post every game I have ever played in over the board tournaments or online and in some kind of chronological order if possible these things will happen from time to time. I have added one mate in one, one mate in four, two mate in five and one mate in nine puzzle today.
