Why in the name of Mike Tyson would you freeze a psilocybe?!?! D:
they were frozen simply because if I had dried them it would be that much harder to see their "uniqueness" and I'm interested in whether or not any of my shroomer friends have found them before
I'll sort some photos out soonish if people are interested

I've found quite a bit of the same mushroom in the North Shore (Auckland, NZ). Growing in wood chips under Phormium (native flax). Macroscopically, looks exactly the same as Inski's. Overlooked it at first, as it looked like an unusual Coprinus micaceus or similar (we've had a lot of rain for the past 2 months...). Its come up continuously for 1 month now in the same spots. Similar to Inski's description - solitary to cepitose, with tenacious rhizomorphs. Seems to be partially secotoid in form. While it does open, the gills are quite malformed, and the cap tissue seems to grow down into them. Also, dunno if you found this, Inski, but while I could get spores, the few that made them didn't make many at all. Doesn't mean too much, but... Probably the most distinctive part is the stipe - it seems reduced to me, both in length and width for the size of the cap, and is also very wiry and fibrous. So seems to be something early on the road to secotoid form. I've posted a poor pic - my tripod broke (DON'T buy Gitzo).
 Would be nice to know exactly what it is.

Pretty old thread, dude. But still, fascinating find, good work. Also, I feel compelled to point out that Psilocybe Cubensis is STILL Psilocybe Cubensis, two years later...

A mate and i found a patch of these, about 40-60 or so in wood chips in the Dandenong area in Victoria, Australia. overlooked them at first thinking they weren't subs, but my mates curiosity lead him to them and to our surprise they looked exactly like Subs so we picked em. They were massive, thick caps diameter around 8-9cm on one, the rest around 6-7cm, dark and rich in colour, white as steam, bruising instantly. Didnt think they were this big!
