Am I correct in thinking that Echoing Ooze will summon every turn after you play it the first time?
No - since Echoing Ooze is a Battlecry, it will only trigger once when the first Echoing Ooze is played from your hand. It will not continuously replicate itself. The second copy will not Battlecry also, since it was not played from your hand.
Mad Scientist - I wonder what happens if you get a duplicate secret from the deathrattle. Does it immediately proc on the scientist, or is he too dead?
This is potentially a complex question, but it currently works like this: It depends on the order Mad Scientist and Duplicate are played.
DUPLICATE THEN SCIENTIST: I have Duplicate in play. I then play Mad Scientist. I have a second Duplicate in my deck. The Mad Scientist dies. Duplicate triggers, and I get two copies of Mad Scientist in my hand. Mad Scientist's Deathrattle then triggers, and I get the other Duplicate put into play from my deck.
OR
SCIENTIST THEN DUPLICATE: I have Mad Scientist in play. I play Duplicate. The Mad Scientist dies, triggering his Deathrattle. His Deathrattle sees Duplicate is already in play and no other Secrets besides Duplicate are in the deck. Mad Scientist dies without putting another Secret into play. Duplicate triggers, and I get two Mad Scientists in my hand but no Duplicate in play.
I wonder if having Mad Scientist die with Baron Rivendare out could result in having two of the same secret out at the same time.
This interaction would pull two different Secrets from your deck and put them into play. If you do not have two different Secrets, it will only pull one Secret and put it into play. You won't be able to have two copies of the same Secret in play.
Will it still try to roll a copy of secret you have on the board even if you have other secrets in the deck?(Probably not just asking)
It won't try - it'll see that you have a copy of that Secret already in play, and choose a different Secret from your deck. If you do not have another Secret in your deck, he will not trigger.
Does this include temporary buffs like Abusive Sergeant or Dark Iron Dwarf?
Echoing Ooze
Abusive Sergeant targeting Echoing Ooze
Turn ends
Ooze gets copied
Buff fades from original Ooze
? Buff fades from copied Ooze
? Buff does not fade from copied Ooze
Which of the last two is true?
Temporary buffs that are copied will still be temporary. So if you buff the Ooze with a Sergeant, you'll just end up with two 1/2s at the end of the turn.

Stoneskin Gargoyle will in fact hurt itself with Soulpriest in play.

It removes the card from the deck.

More importantly, what does the Thaddius say?
Zeriyah
Mad Scientist pulls the Secret from your deck, so you won't have a million copies. It also will not copy a Secret if you already have it in play.
Zeriyah
It does not.
Zeriyah
They're so breezy!
Zeriyah
You get a very dead ooze, and nothing happens at the end of turn. The ooze needs to be in play for his ability to happen.
Zeriyah
No, it does not.
Zeriyah
Yup, this is correct. Once the Secret is pulled, you can just mouse over it to see what you got.
Zeriyah
If you have a Stalagg/Feugen, and you kill your opponent's Feugen/Stalagg, you both get a Thaddius.

Correct, Echoing Ooze also copies any buffs that are put on it.
