don't you wanna mean script?

 
Try something like this?

Code: 
-	script	your_week_test	-1,{if (next_week > gettimetick(2)) { // It's not next week yet or user doesn't have anything	if (times > .max_times) {		mes "Sorry, you can't use me until next week.";		close;	}}else {	set times, 0;	set next_week, gettimetick(2) + (7 * 24 * 60 * 60); // 7 days, 24 hours, 60 mins, 60 secs (delay starting from first time he's spoken, start of the week can be calculated but it's a bit more messy)	mes "This is the first time you talk to me this week!";}// Something goodset times, times+1;mes "You have talked to me " + times + " times this week total.";close;OnInit:set .max_times, 3;end;}

Thanks,but

Would it be possible for player who reached max limitation on Saturday can run the script again on Monday

 
This counts a week from the first time you talk to the NPC. I could calculate next Monday for you but I'll do that when I'm back home or have some free time, if anybody else hasn't already done that.

P.S.: It's easier if you calculate next Sunday instead of Monday.

 
ok , someone teach me using sql query method

i post the code

prontera,151,186,5  script  asdfjkl  721,{  query_sql("SELECT YEARWEEK(now(),1)",.@yw$);//-->assume Monday is  the first day of a week  set .@cn,atoi(.@yw$)*100;  set .@ln,.@cn+.max_limit;  if(#rn < .@cn )    set #rn,.@cn;  if(#rn >=.@ln){    mes "3 times per week only";    close;  }  getitem 501, 1;  set #rn,#rn+1;  close;  Oninit:    set .max_limit,3;}
anyway, thank to jaBote  always help me a lot

Why not use gettime(4) to determine the day of the week?

Code:

if (gettime(4) == .limit_reset) {...}  //-->this also means only the day can be reseted  right? if player forgot to login  on that day,var limit_count won't be reseted until he run the script  on .limit_reset day of  next week  or  next n week

True, I guess I overlooked that. Perhaps it could be rewritten (or added onto) with a OnPCLoginEvent with a proper check. gettime(8), which returns the day of the year, could possibly be utilised here to make such a check.
