Weird interaction at church carnival, wondering if it could be recruitment?

I was at a church carnival and two ladies (not affiliated with the church) ask me if they can ask me some deep questions and it was about if I sinned and stuff and I need to follow Jesus, and they gave me a little booklet, and another peice of paper with a money bag on it and said the big prize. This would be normal except the vibe seemed off. One of the ladies did not say a word and also the big red flag is when I asked them if they were part of an organization they dodged the question twice. They also gave me their email. I was wondering could this be a potential Christianity based cult recruitment?

Is there any downsides to this?

I superglues a 1 oz fishing weight to the top of my servo to add some low frontal weight. Is this a good diy mod or is there a reason I shouldn’t do this or any drawbacks?

Is there a better alternative

I’ve had watches for about a year now and I have low tier watches like seiko sport 5, timex weekender, etc and I wanted to get a watch that feels like a significant upgrade. Right now I’m thinking I would get a Hamilton khaki field automatic used for around 500-600. Is there any alternative I should look for that would feel like a significant upgrade for the price range or under.

Anyone know how to fix this?

I bought cheap beadlocks for my axial scx24 on eBay from some Chinese brand and they came with the cheapest screws I have ever seen in my life and they stripped after barely any force. Does anybody know how to possibly get this completely stripped screw out?
