Survive while others escape trial challenge

Hey, so this challenge has been bugging me for these last 2 days. Either it's bugged or I'm not doing it right.

I tried to do it yesterday with very little luck. I survived multiple trials but somehow only managed to get two. It was on RPD, one person died on hook, one survivor escaped, then I escaped and then before the result screen appeared, the third person escaped. In theory I should've only gotten one point, but somehow got two.

I figured that challenge was bugged, so I just skipped it and went to do some others. Now it's the last challenge I have left and I have had 2 games in a row now, where I waited for all 3 survivors to escape, then escape myself, after their icon changed. But both games I've gotten 0 points towards the challenge.

Am I misunderstanding the challenge? Is it bug? Does other people have issues with it?

    This is probably a stupid question but are you sure it's selected? I've have some issues recently were the game deselects tome challenges randomly.

    It seems you've found this tome's broken challenge. Every tome has one. Congratulations!

    The challenges on the Midnight Grove tend to clear if you reload, so if you finish on one day then reload the next you will have to reselect it, but I haven; seen this on the current tome as of yet, but it may for thers.

    Secondly the challenge is worded badly. You do not need to do this on one game, you could do it over four if you want to as long as you and one other person survives, you just need to let them exit first. It just counts the survivor exiting before you. I did it in two games, the first we all escaped so I just stayed inside the gate at the side until everybody was out, which I normally do in case somebody gets caught last minute and needs a save. The second game there was just two of us left and I just went behind the other player.

    100% sure it was selected. I managed to get it. Seems completely random if it'll give them points to you or not. Played another two games, where at least 1 person escaped before me and got 0 points and then the third game, I got 2 points despite being second to leave with 1 person dead and 1 still in trial.

    Nah, the only way you'll get it at the moment is if they change it to "survive while other survivors DC."

    Maybe death was an escape?

    When survivors forget about gens and focus on challenges and still manage to get a 4 man escape
