This is pretty quick and easy to make if the requirement is no fluff is allowed to form at all rather than a particular puff, so I thought it might be easier for your learning to make it and let you look at the resulting script rather than try to explain it. I'm about to go out now but ask if you've got any questions and I'll happily answer them later.

Step 1: Copy the following to your clipboard:
  Set var "ChallengeFail" = 0
  If ... 
        Wait for clean room 
     Go to Skip to End
  If End 
  Wait for clean room 
  If ... 
        Wait until var "ChallengeFail" = 0
     Challenge completed Say No to Fluff
  If End 
Label Skip to End


Step 2: Create a character somewhere in the room and press Ctrl+Shift+B to paste the above code into his code box.

Step 3: Copy the following code:
  Wait for event Puff merged into fluff
  Set var "ChallengeFail" = 1


Step 4: Copy it into a DIFFERENT SECOND character by using Ctrl+Shift+B.

This challenge will trigger the turn AFTER you clear the room if you are successful at the challenge.

I'm happy to help out with any scripting questions you have as much as I can. First of all though I'd make sure you understand what's happening in the above script as you can learn a bit about basic scripting from that example and may be able to implement some more challenges you have by modifying that one.

Don't forget that you can press F1 when in the editor to get to a help page that explains how to use each script command and what it does.

Give a man a script, he eats for a day.

Teach a man to script, he regularly misses meals due to all of the time he instead spends scripting.
