OT J012059.59+325545.0: rapid fading continues

   Maehara-san, Kyoto team (Ohshima-san) and Crimean Astroph. Obs. team
(just before the rapid fading: A. Baklanov and O. Antonyuk, relayed by
E. Pavlenko) have reported new observations.  The object was rapidly
fading at a rate of 1.2 mag/d on Dec. 24.

   Although the amplitude of superhumps during the early stage of
the rapid decline was large (0.13 mag), it has decayed to ~0.05 mag.
Further observations are strongly encouraged to follow the evolution.
