Mining Steem Harder than it Sounds

in steem-help •  8 years ago 

Wow, I have been mining Alt Coins for some time now and stumbled across Steem.
So i thought to myself, Hey this will be cool!!!!!
After what seems like a thousand trials and errors I finally got a miner up and running and Yes found two Blocks.
However, I do not see that I received any kind of reward.
So I try to check my config.ini to see if its properly set and low and behold I screwed it up royally.
I am Lost and Confused!!!!!!!
Can someone Please explain why I did not receive a reward for finding two Blocks?

    Hi you might also find this guide here useful:

    After you find your first blocks you must claim your account using the unlocked cli wallet as described in the above article (george1234 is an example name)

    unlocked >>> get_account "george1234"

    It is an easy step to miss.
