"The meaning of victory is not to merely defeat your enemy but to destroy him, to completely eradicate him from living memory, to leave no remnant of his endeavours, to crush utterly his achievement and remove from all record his every trace of existence. From that defeat no enemy can ever recover. That is the meaning of victory."
-Lord Commander Solar Macharius
fun fact - if they only have one bonus weekend next time, i'll be stuck at 2950...

I'm at 1550 after my run-thru today. No buy out, I'm just getting up at the same time every morning and running the queue and of course taking advantage of the bonus weekends. If I got up a tad bit early tomorrow I could have 1600, but I haven't been sleeping well lately so I'm going to try and sleep in.
Hello. My name is iamynaught and I am an altaholic.
It'll probably take you all three FTFOs to get to 3k. Or at least through two of them if you aim for every 20 hours + the bonus weekends.
Basically you can earn 1050 on 21 days (not counting "beating the clock for the countdown"). Every bonus weekend is another 200 to 250 (needs to fit your schedule somewhat but doesn't necessarily need extraordinary devotion like setting your alarm clock). I'll ignore the 500 from a buyout.
So you'll get 3150 plus bonus, let's roll with 200 here. If two bonus weekends will be the standard, that's another 1200, so 4350. You won't be able to get the discount token after two TFOs this way (stuck at 2900) but would have made serious progress on a theoretical second token and could easily skip a TFO next time around, presuming the rules stay.
If you are "beating the countdowns": 21 days have 504 hours, in theory enough for 25 runs, but with actual playtime (roughly 5 hours for the TFOs) plus the possibility of the schedule hitting a downtime, I'd say 24 will probably be the max for even the most dedicated player. That's 1200, so you'd need two runs of bonus weekends - which may only give 200 because they may not fit into the schedule (really don't wanna calculate the times there). Enough for a token after the second TFO.
It would also be enough to run 21 days and get the 5 bonus runs on one of two bonus weekends - precisely 1500 thingamajigs, times two would just be the 1500 needed.

Someone should calculate at what point you don't need to bother any more, which is of course theoretical as we don't know how much bonus weekends we'll get. But this could save a lot of "I'm 50 short!" posts when all is over.
EDIT: Oh, I didn't see @xyquarze made something like this. So if we assume two bonus weekends and ignore buyouts, you could theoretically still hit the mark at the end of the three TFOs if you got as little as 150 this time.

Nothing will stop the "I'm 50 short" threads from appearing.
Just completed last Riposte run - finished at 1600 - but I did little planning on bonus weekends, so manager to get 250 bonus each time, and manager to get last run before the server will go down.
If next TFO event will be the same (doubtfull - my familiy is planning a vacation, but maybe I will get enough internet access),
then - just maybe - I should get the coupon at the end of 2nd event (and save more than enough TFO vouchers for gear reward on 3rd).

The whole Event Reputation tab is unresponsive. Normally you're able to convert the tokens you got from the TFO into dil and marks, but that isn't possible either.
The tracker is only active while the TFO event is active. Progress is maintained. When the next qualifying TFO starts, the tracker will be back up.

Kewls, but are we also able to turn in our excess of tokens for the special console into dilitium again, which was possible with the previous special TFO's ? 'Coz all is grayed out in the Event Reputation Tab.
It is the same story as with the new items from the Winter and Summer Festivals. As soon as the Event ends it reverts to the way the Store was before the Event. We had that happen with the Lobi Store twice as well.
They can't seem to uncouple UI changes/Event Store additions from the Event itself.
