Steem Mining - Can You Spot Anything Wrong With This Config.ini file?
Here is a copy of my config.ini I have been mining for 5 days/nights at pretty much 13k hps I have yet to receive a POW so am fearing something here might be out of date or wrong. A million thank you's if you can help out :)

I have been mining with 2 fairly powerful 8-core machines and have noticed a drastic descend in the POW's that I'm getting in the past few days.
I wonder if this issue has anything to do with it:

Good luck ;)
