[vsnet-alert 21523] Re: ASASSN-17ni: double-peaked superhumps

     Pavol A. Dubovsky has reported further observations. The light curve seems to show
superhump-like modulations, but we cannot obtain the accurate period. Thus I suspect
the previous reported period of 0.07 day. Confirmation is needed.
