Two Questions From the Recent Changelog

[Merellis]

Just a couple of hopefully simple questions.

1) Gunslinger Elemental Bullets:
I remember us discussing this at a GM meeting and deeming it to be overpowered and unnecessary for Gunslingers. What exactly has changed since that discussion to make the opinion shift from a straight up no to a yes? Can the GM's who made this decision actually bring forth an argument for why this was added?

2) Trial of Heroes Update:
If you have time to update the ToH script, where is the fix on the timers for Monster, Item, Trivia, Rules, PVP and Mass Battle? Are they all still on the GM who talks to the NPC, or are they finally on the NPC where a random disconnect won't screw up everything?

Little transparency from the GM team plox.
