Ok, so I realised my stim event files needed to have as many rows as runs with a * to indicate if there were none of that stim class in that run.

With that changed, my DM has slightly (attached). But it still eems as if something is going wrong with interpreting the timings in the runs, for example i get these warnings when running 3dDeconvolve:

My TRs are 2 seconds long, and there are 868 in total, which AFNI seems to be reading ok, since it says 'Auto-concatenated datasets start at 0 217 434 651' , but then it says the imaging duration is only 434.0s, which Im assuming is what's causing the issues with the unusable times. Also note the first two runs are entirely one stim type, and the third and fourth are the other.
