Last superoutburst in 2008 and earlier ones in 1994 and 1997. Considering a supercycle of 11 years, the next superoutburst is overdue. The current outburst was detected early and time-resolved photometry is very desirable. This object is a long-Porb WZ Sge star and early superhumps were visible in the earliest state of a superoutburst.
