This appeared five turns back, in Anagram V. Is this permitted as it is now a "new" round? or does the fact that we have taken the lsat word from An. V mean that it is a continuation?

I'm not really worried one way or the other, except that I am tempted to get us into a permanent loop by giving - +I - TENSILE !!

TENSELY A new vowel may help to avoid loops.
