*The first time the epitaph is solved in-game is during {{banquet}} by [[Eva Ushiromiya]].
*The epitaph can be solved without knowing the phrase "You will be blessed only at a probability of quadrillion to one" on the chapel. This
**One comes from the one discrepancy within the riddle, ''On the tenth twilight, the journey shall end, and you shall reach the capital where the gold dwells.'', in which the Golden Land is instead referred to as the capital. Golden Land, in romanized Japanese, is "Ougon Kyou", which can also mean Golden Capital. The character for Land/Capital, "kyou", can be read as "kei", which is also a number equal to ten quadrillion. When divided by ten (''tenth twilight''), only one quadrillion is left.
**Second, one can deduce that the string of letters to remove "Qilian" from is eleven letters long due to the five "gouge and kill" lines later in the epitaph. The six letters of "Qilian" plus five equals eleven total letters.
*The epitaph's role in {{umineko}} is similar to the role of [[Wikipedia:Ten Little Indians|Ten Little Indians]] in [[Wikipedia:Agatha Christie|Agatha Christie's]] ''[[Wikipedia:And Then There Were None|And Then There Were None]]''
*The truth of the witch's epitaph garnered some controversy among fans due to the difficulty of solving it.
