Squidy hard boiled eggs

Ingredients for this are pretty obvious - eggs. In this case, where everything is almost an scientific experiment, it has to be 4 eggs in my smallest AMC pot (which unlike normal pots, retains heat).

The method here is also specific as every factor affects cooking time and thus result:
1) Take 4 eggs out of the fridge (aka cold). Prick a hole in the air sac at the bottom.
2) Boil water. Put the eggs in the pot and fill with the boiling water, just enough to cover the top of the eggs.
3) Turn on the flame and let the temp rise to the middle (12 o'clock) position of the AMC pot. Turn off the heat and leave it to steep for exactly 6 minutes.
4) When time is up, place the eggs in cold water immediately. Once the eggs are cool enough to handle, deshell.
