Here is a game from a correspondence quad I played at ICC last year. I didn't do well in that quad and lost more games than I won. So far my recored at ICC isn't very good and that is why both my standard rating and my correspondence rating are in the 1500 range. I still have some correspondence games going at ICC and at Stan's Net Chess. I will post them here as I finish them. One of the problems that I am having in my correspondence games is that I still tend to move too quickly and thus miss things.
In this game with rayz I played the English opening, Botvinnik system and got into trouble early. I dropped the Rook for a Knight and pawn and got an attack going against Black's King. I had the lead in development but my attack fizzled out and Black eventually caught up in development. I ended up trading down into a lost endgame and resigned. The entire game, with analysis and diagrams, can be found at http://www.mikeseroveyonchess.com/Rayz-English.html. Here is the game in PGN.
