I ran Scambler once, at the E.L.I. regional last year. I used three eggs all day. If the egg is any good to begin with, it shouldn't deteriorate that much on an ordinary run. The bigger problem, to me, is that they counted eggs that broke before launch. I don't have B rules handy, but unless that situation were specifically addressed in the rules, I would be inclined to allow a team whose egg broke before launch to try again with another egg.

I'm not sure, but I think I once heard this issue addressed somewhere else. If I recall correctly, the consensus was that it either was in the rules or in some clarification at some point that each team only gets one egg.

(Our tech coach always played a joke on the Scrambler kids last year, asking them if they'd remembered to bring their egg )
