Hi, you probably cannot do it. How I would do it - from my experience, I tend to using MLO more and more easily, it enables me to focus more on actual work than on organizing and customizing THAT macro or rule. So I stopped to use all recurrences at all, and when some tasks is recurrent, I use symbol % in caption. When it is tasks which should be repeated sometimes in the future but it depends on many circumstances (e.g. to buy new batteries - I do not know exactly when the old batteries will run out), I put only % (% buy new baterries) and when completing this task, I mark it as hidden (do not delete it) and during weekly review I go through all the tasks, checking if % tasks needs to start (I call it "repeated as needed" tasks).
When I have regularly repeating tasks, I put time interval after %. Thus "jogging (%w)" remember me to run every week. But - for me the biggest advantage of this system is that I do not know exactly every week if I will jog on Monday or Sunday, so I can adjust due date case- by-case, day-by-day, which is something you cannot do if you have your recurrences set on. That is the main reason I found recurrences inflexible. So I would solve your problem by adding "%sa" to the task name, which reminds me to put new due date to next Saturday immediately after completing this tasks. And again, if by chance you decide that just for NEXT WEEK it would be better to schedule it for Friday, you can do it easily, which is something you cannot do with recurrences set on.
