Drot – thwacking… drot was a new word for me.
drot – thwacking as well
DROT – THWACKING for me too. 13/2!

And done for the day!
Yes, this was mine, too. Didn’t know about DROIT.
Also, DOWNRIGHT-TRACK
Adroit Thwacking
Crackdown Night
We knew it was coming
Too true dat.
Another Crackdown Night. There’s a new Sheriff in town, and apparently they’re gonna get Gothic if not Medieval on our asses.
Downright track
DOWNRIGHT- TRACK too. Wish I could see a theme in it, but proud it’s more efficient than OA 😇
Same here
Same, DOWNRIGHT – TRACK.
P.S. It is taking so long lately to scroll down to this site from the search results.
Gothic
Crackdown
Same. Took me a while.

When the time for pleading was over and your mom caught that look in her eyes and said “bring me a switch”.
And me.
“Downright track” here, which uses one less letter than the official solution
DOWNRIGHT — TRACK
Also saw ARTHRITIC, WRONGING, TRACKING, ACTIONING, IGNITION
CRACKDOWN-NIGHTHAWK
CRACKDOWN – NIGHT!!
Same
Same
Same
This is what I arrived at as well. Certainly took longer than I would have expected with a relatively friendly letter array. Another answer that’s more efficient than the OA.
THWACKING – GORDO
a heavyweight boxer
Another THWACKING -GORDO. Although I was surprised to have Gordo accepted.
This was my first solution as well — poor Gordo! — but as I play with the Scrabble word list and GORDO is not on it, I had to move on to DOGCART – THWACKING.
Same here.
THWACKING / GORDO too.
Yes, I finished with:
thwacking-gordo as well.
Nice surprise albeit a bit weird.
KNIGHT-TRACKDOWN
CRACKDOWN. NIGHTWARD
KICKDOWN NIGHTWARD
Besides the OA, which has a great theme, I found:
CRACKDOWN—NIGHTGOWN
👨🏻⚖️⚖️👗
CRACKDOWN—NIGHTHAWK
👨🏻⚖️⚖️🦅
CARTWRIGHTING°—GODKIN
The godkins are friends with yesterday’s seraphim.

DOGCART THWACKING
(Computer says yes)
Good one.

I got THWACKING GORDO
I haven’t own in a week, so I’m going to dance about this one .
Me too. And very fast. Had to quit while I was ahead.
Same!
DOGCART THWACKING here too.
Tried and got Drot Thwacking (13/2)
Oh drat! I did not know DROT (variant of drat).
Thanks. Nice 13/2!
I also was unaware of drot, it was killing me trying to complete with thwacking which I tried to make work for awhile, missed a pretty obvious solution by preceding it with adroit. Learned a new word today! Eventually got crackdown – nothIng
CRACKDOWN – NIGHT
Police curfew.
Same
NIGHTWARD – DOGTRACK
appropriate, since i was sniffing around in the dark to find both words 🙂
NIGHTWARD – DORNICK*
DORT – THWACKING
DOGTRACK – KICKDOWN Big loser at the races!
Kept getting 3w’s with Gothic Card; tried Nighthawk, Nightgown and lots of -ing words, finally got CRACKDOWN NIGHT, happily.
After a frustrating 30 min on way to work,returned at lunch and saw crackdown night in seconds
CARDON* NIGHTHAWKING*
Cardon is a giant cactus; Nighthawking refers to the illegal theft of antiques and artifacts.
DROT – THWACKING. ADROIT – THWACKING
