Just an update: WP sent me an e-mail and said that I don't get ANY credit for my recent MRs, because I had a 130 mile puddle jumper ride from PDX to SEA on QX. Everything else prior to that (MHT-DTW-SEA) was on NW metal. So, long story short, don't book a ticket--like J or C fare--for some place where you'll fly on another carrier. You won't get the points.
