You may be right about using a corner.  I've never tried it that way.  My
point was that you don't need to trap Chaos _ON_ a 'fluxed' square.  You only
need to surround him by them (perhaps two flux squares and two wall squares
count as surrounding).  You aren't fusing the fluxcage, you are fusing
Chaos himself.  At least this is the way that worked for me (four times :-) ).

Happy fluxing!
