ASASSN-18mp: eclipsing WZ Sge-type candidate

     According to ZTF data and Gaia data, this object has the superoutburst
amplitude of 5 mag, the absolute magnitude in quiescence of 11.9 mag,
and  long or multiple rebrightenings. Also, the vsnet-alert 22236 reported
the orbital period estimated from the eclipse of 0.0623(7) d and the
superhump period of 0.0624(11)d.

     This object might be an eclipsing WZ Sge-type candidate, therefore, that
is one of the proper objects for verifying the estimation method of mass ratio
from stage A.

     Time-resolved photometry is encouraged.
