MASTER OT J083244.44-214911.5 discovery - dwarf nova outburst with Ampl>4.3m (no VIZIER source)

MASTER-SAAO auto-detection system ( Lipunov et al., Advances in Astronomy, MASTER Global Robotic Net, 2010 ) discovered OT source at (RA, Dec) = 08h 32m 44.44s -21d 49m 11.5s on 2015-06-21.71565 UT.
The OT unfiltered magnitude is 17.7m. There are 10 images with m_OT=17.7 on 2015-06-21 and 14 images with m_OT=17.8 on 2015-06-22.(706 - 731) UT . There is no minor planet at this place.
We have reference image without OT on 2014-12-23.95579 UT with 19.7 unfiltered magnitude limit.
There is no any source in VIZIER database, so we can suggest the dwarf nova outburst with Ampl > 4.3m .
Spectral observations are required.

MASTER OT J212011.77-800924.5 discovery - UVCet type flare

MASTER-SAAO auto-detection system discovered OT source at (RA, Dec) = 21h 20m 11.77s -80d 09m 24.5s on 2015-06-20.82007 UT.
The OT unfiltered magnitude is 18.0m (limit 19.9m).
The OT is seen in 6 images. We have reference image without OT on 2015-01-21.84219 UT with unfiltered magnitude limit 19.9m.

Spectral observations are required.
