I would definitely agree with a Galerina ID, probably G. marginata - deadly as I'm sure you know.

Okay, i threw the others out, but i went back out and saw another huge batch of unkowns on a dead tree.
habitat: woods, on a dead tree gills: white(ish) with a hint of light brown stem: white near the cap, about 3 inches cap: about 2 inches, light brown/orange around the edge, dark brown in the center spore print: on the way i think i see a slight blue/green tint near the cap, allthough i'm not positive

xmush has the last two of the first group right. Those look to me like Galerina marginata, a deadly species.
Your new one is an Armillaria, a Honey Mushroom. They are edible, if well cooked. If not cooked enough they are poisonous. Be cautious the first time you eat one, even though edible they still cause some bad reactions (nausea, vomiting, diarrhea). Eat only a tiny amount (the size of a fingernail) and wait overnight to eat more to see if you'll get sick. If you don't get sick, then you're OK.
Happy mushrooming!

It's enjoying it's time in the trash can right now....
could specimen 1 be simply a big galerina, or another type of mushroom...

I'm not so experienced with galerinas. I just know the third one had a very recognizable look like a classic galerina. The others look suspect to me but it is possible they are not galerinas at all. Only a more complete examination will tell. As for the honeys I've never eaten them. Many people like them but listen to ToxicMan's advice. You don't want to end up with the shits for days.

I'm not planning on eating the honey's, simply because i can't stand the taste of any mushroom. Although, i'll eat them all night long if they have psilocybin in them
