I guess, only few people know about it or they were not being used in school as well. It is probably easier to say and remember "three times" than "thrice". When I was in school in the Philippines, I knew that the word thrice existed. When I came here in US, my co-worker laughed at me because he didn't think that thrice is a word.

Because threefold has the edge(s)?
You should start a committee for the reuse of obsolete words, bet you will gain a great following.
