GDS J1010438-582025: active dwarf nova ATLAS: 14.8-18.4. Frequent outbursts. SS Cyg? (Some outbursts resembles superoutbursts, but look like long outbursts of an SS Cyg star)

GDSJ0703457-063947: IW And star Using ATLAS forced photometry (Tonry et al. 2018; Shingles et al. 2021), this object turned out to be an IW And star (typical behavior in 2022). The variation was more heartbeat-like in 2020-2021, when the object was slightly brighter. This may be a suggestion of various IW And-type behavior depending on the mass-transfer rate.

[vsnet-chat 9322] MV Leo: unusual start of standstill

MV Leo: unusual start of standstill Using ATLAS and ZTF data, I found that this object entered a standstill almost directly from a low state in 2020 Mar.-Apr. Such behavior is unexpected. This standstill ended with an outburst like an IW And star.

Faint, but unusual object. I indeed detected superhumps during one of its outburst in 2018 June-July (time-resolved ZTF data on two nights). The period was 0.015822(9) d and an amplitude of 0.09 mag. This object is probably between dwarf nova-type CR Boo (Porb=0.017029 d) and novalike HP Lib (Porb=0.012763 d).

MGAB-V240: standstill interrupted by fading (AM CVn?) Using ZTF data in 2022, I noticed that a standstill was interrupted by up to 2 mag short fading at least four times. The object became brighter (for a short time) after such events. The fading rates exceeded 1 mag/d in some cases and this object may be an AM CVn star. If this identification is correct, repeated regular outbursts before 2020 were superoutbursts (with a supercycle of about 10-15 d). Faint, but unusual object.
