I'd be curious on someone's opinion on this "star" ... [SPH50783666.](http://www.planethunters.org/sources/SPH50783666 "")
Seems like there are multiple star in this system? i find it difficult to read this... what does this make you think of?

Just the two stars. This is a probable "overcontact" eclipsing binary. The stars are so close to each other and their orbits so short that the changes in light are happening on time-scales too close to Kepler's sampling rate and so you see a so-called "shutter effect" because the "wave" is poorly sampled. You need to zoom in to see what's really going on.

This might help, the graph zoomed in to the first day only,

So the stars here are orbiting in about 1/3 of a day
