How much did that fleet lag the system?

Let's see.... From what I could tell, in the main fleet, there was
28 titans
224 motherships
2800 battleships (armageddons)
560 battlecruisers
The ceremonial guard was between 80 and 100 Abaddons (hard to count the last rows). The personal guard was 12 Apocs and 4 Magnates, with sarum herself in another Abaddon...
Total pilot count - 3.709 in Amarr........ And they say JITA is crowded?

In addition, on the shot inside the station there were two 6x4 ship formations of Amarr Navy Slicers, making 48 frigates per hangar for unknown amount of hangars total.
Yeah, as if there weren't enough lag already with the other 3.709 other ships outside

Ginger, I would like you to get a verification on that from whoever set them up like that. Although we cannot see every single ship lined up outside, I am guessing that each "block" is similar to the ones we CAN count. And that is
1 Titan
4 Motherships
200 Battleships
40 Battlecruisers
That's 245 per block. 28 blocks x 245 = 6860, plus the Ceremonial and Personal guards lined up in front...

Am I the only person who sees stuff like this and just... doesn't.. care?
Nope. I found the video awesome for it's fleet-lineup, but story-wise, it didn't give me anything. "Oh, look, there's the new Emperors ship. And a lot of other ships, nice. Now, on with my life in the other end of the univers"...
Talking about this video with a friend and former player, he asked if there was as many players attending as the last coronation. I had to tell him that important events, those that must not be influenced by the players, now either takes place in the fiction alone or "during downtime", which essentially is the same, except we get videoes from the downtime ones. We saw that with the Yulai events and now the coronation. So to him it seemed that CCP has moved away from the approach of us players being able to affect the storyline and I can only say I agree with him. The time where a single player can cause mayhem in the storyline is over. And that's one of the things that can lure people into playing - that they are able to influence the outcome of the story. They still can, just not as easily as in the past
