A mysterious gypsy vendor lays out some coins. Each coin has a different letter on it laid out in the following order:

A C E L R N T U I S T Y N D E I L E R A R N A U M W O H A R R G D C I N G

"When you arrange these coins properly, it will spell out a question to which you must find the answer," the vendor advised you.

What is the answer?

Clues from the neoboards:

- One word is repeated (in full)
- Another word is almost repeated (but slightly different)

My clue: I don't think it has anything to do with the Lost Desert

Another clue (from the Neoboards) is to look for a Neopian place name in the letters. Then, go to that place name... and you will see (part of) the answer!

(Note: The place name itself is not part of the answer.)

Place as in...erm...are things like Tyrannian Jungle counted or only the places on the Explore Map?

Whoop I got it

Some hints:

-Its a place found on the explore map
-Look at the last four letters of the anagram. These letters are included in the word thats repeated twice (in full)

I think that's a bit confusing, so I'm going to say it a different way:
There's a place on the Explore map whose name can be spelled from letters in the anagram. That's where you can go to look for part of the unscrambled question. The name of the place it is in, is not in the unscrambled question.

=.=

Figured it out, and to top it off, most of the words in the solution were my first and second guesses....its just that I held onto the name of that place...

Thanks...

More hints: the above hint implies that you can't look at the last five letters - that is, the D is not in the exactly-repeated word. It is an extremely obvious hint to give if you already know the question. COUNTIF(cell that contains a C, "*C*") = 1, but the rest you'll have to ask the paperclip for.

New post because of the huge time difference

I am horrible at anagrams, so I turned it different sort of conundrum:
