The other element (given by my opponent) was
. One extra pillar/pend; two extra other ups.
6(base)+1(pend/pillar,
)+2(
bonus)+3(
bonus)=12 upgrades.
6+1(pend/pillar)+2+2=11 upgrades.
Where did I go wrong? For the record, the chat between Laxadarap and I before our match touched on the difficulty in interpreting the rules. If I broke them, I apologize; I honestly don't see where or how I may have done so, though.
