Did you 'scramble' your marbles when you wanted to get rid of them?

Just been chatting to my SO about scrambling marbles, whereby in the schoolyard (often on the last day of the academic year) you'd shout 'Scramble!!' and hurl your marbles at the younger year minions. They'd then fight amongst themselves for these scraps.

Turns out my SO hasn't heard of this at all. Was this just a local practice, then?
