RZ LMi: increase in duty cycle?

ASAS-SN data:
https://asas-sn.osu.edu/light_curves/ae9ce0dd-2fb6-453a-8e03-18ec8305bc8d

   Although the data are rather sparse (Maeda-san and
Funada-san also reported some observations, all in
outburst state), it looks like that quiescent state has 
become shorter.

   Observations are needed to see whether durations of
superoutburst have increased.  If the change is
confirmed, it would be a suggestion of an increased
mass-transfer rate (may be leading to a standstill?).
Please keep watching.  Time-resolved photometry would be
also desired.
