Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
This is a fairly minor issue so I'm entering it to make you aware it's happening and let you decide whether it's worth doing something.
Bigwigs will sometimes send a bunch of BigWigs_StartBar events immediately after ENCOUNTER_END. You can see a couple of examples of this happening here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oLmd0n4t4V8. I've only noticed this happening on Mythic Smolderon. Some of these timers last long enough that they can trigger weakauras early in the next pull. In my case I had a weakaura tell me "intermission soon" (tts) because a Stage 2 timer was still active in the first 10 seconds of the next pull.

I posted about this issue on the Bigwigs discord (bigwigs-bugs) but they feel it's not their issue.

Describe the solution you'd like
These timers don't make sense to exist. The encounter is over, none of these mechanics are going to happen. So maybe just ignore Bigwigs_StartBar events except for Respawn which happen soon (e.g. <= 5 seconds) after ENCOUNTER_END and their corresponding Bigwigs_StopBar events which happen later.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Oh I forgot to mention, Bigwigs actually shows bars for these events for about 5 seconds then clears them.

Also you didn't link the aura you use to show timers, if it is what i think it is, it doesn't use weakauras built-in triggers.

Well that's not our problem? It's a bug in BigWigs.
