How many times do you knock on a door in one 'set' of knocks?
Bonus question: is this number the same number of times you knock on wood to ward off jinxes and bad karma?
|
I usually ring the doorbell.
|
Four to both!

No, I ring the doorbell for that too.
I've been lucky thus far! |
I'll pound a good set of knockers for quite a while if it's presented well.
Oh. Doors? Uhm. |
I generally knock 3 times. for both. A nice odd number.
|
Twice for both. How odd; I've never noticed that until now.

Three on a door and two due to superstition.
|
Four solid on a door, two lightly for the other. Now I'm going to be self conscious when I next knock on a door.
|
I usually do it like Tony Orlando.
|
3-5 on a door, and about 2 or 3 for superstition.
Although I don't usually knock for superstition. |
The standard "5 knock" sound for me.
If I know the person very closely, I actually bust out a drum rhythm until they answer. |
I-I don't know how many times I knock! *eyes dart back and forth* Seriously!
After much thought, I just went and knocked my own damn door: 3 knocks, and rather loud ones at that. I seldom knock for superstition, but I'm pretty sure I do 2 light knocks. Oh the joys of door-knocking! |
Nine, firmly all right in a row... or at my friends places, I give the knock, knock-knock, knock, knock... (pause) BOOM... and leave off the last beat just to leave them hanging.
|
Three times! No more, no less, than three times! Come to think of it, I only knock TWICE, when knocking on wood. Twice! No more, no less, than twice. Interesting, hmm.
|
Twice on doors, three times to everything else.
|
I'm Mexican. We use our feet to kick doors in and our Glocks to bust caps. FUCK knockin' and keepin' it REAL~

Four for a door, but I've never knocked for superstition. Hmm...
|
Outside door: Normally five.
Inside door: Normally three. Superstition: Never. |
Usually, three to five. I don't think I'm consistent with the number. BUT! Sometimes I'll do one knock... just to confuse people and get them to be like "what the hell?" since most people expect multiple knocks.
Also like Summonmaster, if I know the person, I may bust out a percussion beat/kick the door. We should go door knocking together sometime... after Mario Strikers. |
I think we've found a new event for next year's X Games: Extreme Door-Knocking. Send the players into a blighted urban area and see how many doors they can knock on before they get beaten/shot.
For the record, I knock 3 times on doors, and think knocking on wood is superstitious nonsense. |
All times are GMT -5. The time now is 09:56 PM. |
