Just based on the surface of what you told us, you were patient (maybe
too but then there is truth in Gygax's comment about minotaurs and war
gamers...) and a good opponent to try and defeat the monolith using the
rules but it just shows that any rule can be twisted (for a multiple of
reasons) to a point where the letter breaks the spirit of the rules.  I
am glad you were able to work it out.  I have known acquaintances who
would 'walk away' if their favorite munchkinism was ruled out of bounds.

It's better when a player gives up a 'fer sure' win due to a flaw in the
rules then when that player insists on playing the rule over the game.
