It just took the one. We suffered no casualties. All the other eggs in the bowl trembled in fear as they saw their comrade brought so close to the brink so many times, only to be allowed to recover slightly and go through it all again.
Seriously though; About a half hour before doing it, I turned a half-dozed or so "fat side down" in the bowl to give the yolks a chance to settle. Egg-balanceing attemps often fail because the balancer doesn't have the patience to wait for the yolk to settle to the bottom before trying to get the egg to stay. Turning a few up like that gave me a good head start.
