It's probably going to be that you all hit a shot and then you all play your next shot from the best out of that.

For example:
4 players hit their drive and only Player B hit a decent shot. All 4 players will then hit their next shot from where Player B's ball ended up.

It will either be that format or what Hog1 described, but in my experience recently, "best ball" has replaced the term "scramble."
I'd say it your first example with all players hitting their next shot from players B shot. This format will make it much easier for you to play if you have a few decent golfers in your group. When putting you may want to offer to putt first if the other golfers are better. Sense all of you will be putting from the same spot this will allow the better golfers to watch your putt and get a feel for how the ball will break. When we play we always go from the worse golfer to the best on every shot.
