Possible Psilocybe Ovoideocystidiata?

Hi guys, decided to do some hunting today despite being rather inexperienced. I've been seeing these growing all summer and now into the fall and pinch testing them. They would turn bluish-purple when pinched on the stem, which sparked my curiosity, however they still did not look like any mushrooms I had eaten so I disregarded them. I think I was looking for cubensis though, and upon further research I realized they may be ovoideocystidiata, as these actually grow in my region and occasionally in mulch/ wood chips (I've been finding them in a flower bed laid with mulch and wood chips, that may or may not be fertilized). Some of the photos I've seen on here look spot on to what I picked today, so I figured I'd join up and ask! Some of the stems i accidentally ripped off by pinching too hard, others are full stemmed specimens, and some I haven't even tried pinch testing, as they are much darker and I'm not even sure if they are the same type of mushroom. Most were found within an 8 inch radius, but separate from one another (may be due to me picking others from the same spot earlier in the year) and I found a couple in paired clusters. That is all the info I can think to add for now, heres links to the photos from my gallery since I cannot figure out how to upload them directly (forum noob). Thanks for the help!

I'm not seeing any ovoids in there, sorry buddy. Definitely wait for a TI's opinion though.
What region or state did you find them in?

Southern Connecticut. I hadn't seen them in a couple weeks but it was pretty dry. We had a ton of rain like wednesday-friday though I believe it was, so I wasn't too surprised to see some. Any idea if they're active? And thanks for the reply!
If anyone else feels they need more info let me know. As I said I'm new here so I realize I may have left out important details

My vote: I don't think those are ovoids. not active.

Damn, that means I would need a microscope to know if they were safe, which I don't have 
Thanks for your help guys!
