The OGLE-IV Transient Search (Wyrzykowski et al. ATEL #4495, Kozlowski et al. 2013) reports the discovery of 13 new on-going candidates for supernovae and one candidate for a nova. Most of them appeared near or on top of apparent galaxies and their light curves resemble those of supernovae before or near their peak brightness.
