    According to "Pi of the Sky" page, 1RXS J023238.8-371812
(Possible nova outburst) was recorded at mag 10.53 on Sep 16
and 10.94 on Sep 18.  The object was invisible on Sep 15.
The initial fading rate was not incompatible with that of
a WZ Sge-type dwarf nova.

   "Pi of the Sky" obtained multiple data points on Sep 27 and 28.
The resultant variation could have been from superhumps or
early superhumps, but the number of the data was still
insufficient.
