1 a week per char, but there are badges for doing multiple runs.

Just to clarify, because I'm that sort of guy:
WST = Weekly Strike Target = (next week) Manticore TF/Renault SF
WSF = Weekly Strike Force = Renault
WTF = Weekly Task Force = Manticore = an incredibly immature acronym that a majority of the playerbase seems to have adopted despite the devs' best efforts at discouraging it
"You don't lose levels. You don't have equipment to wear out, repair, or lose, or that anyone can steal from you. About the only thing lighter than debt they could do is have an NPC walk by, point and laugh before you can go to the hospital or base." -Memphis_Bill
We will honor the past, and fight to the last, it will be a good way to die...

The Devs apparently hated it when we called the unique Widow dress part "butt-capes" as well, but what are they gonna do? |

I'd hate to have people be immature about a superhero computer game! 
There are no words for what this community, and the friends I have made here mean to me. Please know that I care for all of you, yes, even you. If you Twitter, I'm MrThan. If you're Unleashed, I'm dumps. I'll try and get registered on the Titan Forums as well. Peace, and thanks for the best nine years anyone could ever ask for.
And I'll be running the WTF on my widow with a butt-cape, who's gonna stop me?

I seem to have missed these "best efforts." What was done? Were threats made? Were people banned? Were any animals harmed in the making of these efforts?

*"Best efforts" = "not using that acronym and deliberately not pointing out that they didn't use the acronym"

The thing is that, to me at least, WTF makes a lot more sense as an acronym than WST. It is a Task Force that I do Weekly hence the Weekly Task Force. I realize that WTF has another meaning but lots of TLAs have multiple meanings. I realize that the devs used Strike Target since redside Task Forces are not technically Task Forces but you know what? I call them Task Forces as well so it is the Weekly Task Force regardless of what side I'm playing.

I have a toon I'm working on trying to get the Cardiac Core Paragon and it looks like I'm going to need 3 more Notice of the Wells. Can i only get one per week or can I run the TF multiple times during the day or week and get the pieces I need?
