We report neutron scattering measurements on low energy (ħω∼ 5 meV) magnetic excitations from a series of Fe_1+y-z(Ni/Cu)_zTe_1-xSe_x samples which belong to the "11" Fe-chalcogenide family. Our results suggest a strong correlation between the magnetic excitations near (0.5,0.5,0) and the superconducting properties of the system. The low energy magnetic excitations are found to gradually move away from (0.5,0.5,0) to incommensurate positions when superconductivity is suppressed, either by
