Merchant level 6 trial "Between Two Towns" not counting courier runs

Hi Sam — SlowpokeFasching reached Merchant level 5 today (Nov 3). His trial for level 6, ‘Between Two Towns’, says: complete courier runs to 3 different markets (0 of 6), and work counts from the moment you reached level 5.

Since leveling up he has completed at least 2 courier runs, delivered. His recent runs on the Couriers page show deliveries to three different markets — The Grand Exchange, Sovereign Estates and Two Birds Market — and his Merchant CXP pool rose from 12 to 191, so the runs themselves are paying CXP. But the trial counter still reads 0 of 6.

Could you take a look when you get a chance? Thank you — Fausto

Second question, Sam — this one is about my own Brewer pool. The Brewer Master page says 24,060 CXP in the pool: 8,714 carried over from before the release, and 15,346 earned since the release. Rank 1 (Master Brewer 1) needs 20,250 CXP earned since the release.

Is the earned-since-release number still counting up as I brew and collect now? It reads 15,346 today, and I want to be sure it is moving before I chase the last 4,904. Thanks — Fausto

Hi Fausto, thanks for the detail!

Slowpoke’s trial: his runs were counting. The page just didn’t show it. The trial counts from the moment he reached level 5 (3 Nov, 20:20 UTC). Since then he has finished 3 runs, but to only 2 different markets: Ancient Woodland and Everdale Isle twice. The counter stayed at 0 until a third market was reached, which made it look as if nothing had counted. I’ve changed it: it now shows 3 of 6; 2 of 3 markets. He needs 3 more runs, with at least one to a market other than Ancient Woodland or Everdale Isle. The lamb carcass run finished 84 seconds before he levelled, so that one belongs to the previous trial.

Your Brewer pool: yes, it’s moving. Everything you earn now goes into the “earned since the release” figure. Yesterday’s apple juice and hopspelt mash were paid in. You also have 1,500 CXP from three batches due to pay on 7, 8 and 11 Nov, which brings you to about 16,846, leaving roughly 3,400 for Master Brewer 1. Yesterday’s two newest batches are valued when you collect them.

Thank you, Sam — we appreciate your great help. Forgive us, we are still getting the hang of it. — Fausto

All good, these were bugs I had to fix, so you posting these helped me find them and improve the system for you as the players :)
