Timer error

im creating a game that has income after so many minutes, and i want to show How long until each income by using countdown timer, below i have this set up, and it works perfect until it expires. Once it expires the entire top of the screen blows up with timers counting down again, where did i go wrong?

For each (Integer A) from 1 to 12, do (Trigger - Run Timer 1 <gen> (checking conditions))

Run the first trigger 12 times, creating 12 timers and 12 more timer windows? That doesn't strike me as brilliant.

In fact, I would toss the second trigger away totally. Just make a trigger for, whenever the timer expires, to give income.

I don't think you have to destroy the timer window at all. Just let it keep repeating, see what happens.
