Ive just cheaked and RELAPSING is a proper word (meaning sort of backwards)
so its very strange why they did that as the rule is that the conundrum (unlike an anagram) is supposed to be already jumbled.
Perhaps Michael Wylie cheaked and RELAPSING was'nt in the concise at that time?

there was 1 solution to the conundrum: Spanglier
Relapsing is the same word, doesn´t count, and pearlings has a plural s-which is also not valid in a conundrum

25X 4= 100
10+ 3= 13
100+ 13= 113

@cbgmp It says in the rules that the conundrum will never be the conundrum set, even if it is a word.
