WX Cet started to show superhumps
According to the most recent observations by Josch Hambsch,
WX Cet started to show superhumps on Oct. 4 or 5.
Itoh-san obtained long time-series data starting from
the rising phase, but superhumps were not apparent
up to Oct. 3.
SDSS J001153.08-064739.1 rare bright outburst
Moriyama-san has pointed out that this object is
undergoing a rare bright outburst. The orbital period
is in the period gap and a superoutburst can be expected.

Using ZTF data, I obtained an orbital period
of 0.1002809(1) d. The phased light curve show clear
EW-like modulations with an amplitude of 0.25 mag.

ASASSN-22lx: new SU UMa-type dwarf nova
Josch Hambsch and Berto Monard have reported observations.
This object started to show superhumps on Oct. 4.
The current period is 0.0564(5) d.
ASASSN-22lk: superhump period
Period = 0.05584(2) d, amplitude 0.12 mag (after Sep. 27).
My analysis suggests that early superhumps were below
the detection limit.
Observers: Kyoto U. team, Itoh-san, Tonny Vanmunster.
TCP J23580961+5502508: updated period of early superhumps
Period = 0.05940(1) d. Mean amplitude 0.15 mag.
Observers: Kyoto U. team, Itoh-san, Osaka Kyoiku U. team,
Kiyota-san, Tamas Tordai, Sano-san, Josch Hambsch
TCPJ23580961+5502508: new WZ Sge-type dwarf nova
Kyoto Univ. Obs. observed TCPJ23580961+5502508 on 30th Sep.
We detected early superhumps with a period of ~0.060 d, and an amplitude of
0.2 mag!
Therefore TCPJ23580961+5502508 is a new WZ Sge-type dwarf nova, and also
has one of the largest early superhump amplitude.
Follow-up photometry is strongly encouraged.
