The LSQ unfiltered list should be used with caution. Most of what appeared to be good targets were in fact movers. For example, LSQ12egz appears real in the subtractions, but the position changes by ~1" between images. We attempted to observe this, but it turned out to be a mover. If the coords are different between different detections, it is probably a mover. The lightcurve from source+host can also be very useful for seeing if a transient is real, or whether there is underlying variability in a host.
