McCully (LCOGT/UCSB), and S.\nValenti (UC Davis) report the classification of the EM candidate\nSMTJ13331687-1607330 (GCN 18771) associated with gravitational wave event\nG211117 (GCN 18728) based on a spectrum obtained 2015 December 31.6 UT with\nthe robotic FLOYDS instrument mounted on the Faulkes Telescope North. SNID\n(Blondin & Tonry 2007, ApJ, 666, 1024) gives good fits to several normal\nType Ia supernovae around two weeks after maximum light at redshifts\nconsistent with that of the proposed host galaxy (z=0.020; Catinella,\nHaynes, & Giovanelli 2005, AJ, 130, 1037 via NED). Since the LIGO trigger\noccurred less than six days earlier on 2015 December 26.2,\nSMTJ13331687-1607330 is likely unassociated with the gravitational wave\nevent.",
