Yes, the reason for the anti-dinner is as much about the size of the group 
as it is the venue. That said, I like picking where I'm going to eat, 
because I'm a huge food snob. The "anti-" has always been a joke, and is 
not intended to reflect any actual opposition to the arrival dinner. If 
people really dislike it, I'm happy to rename to the wiki page. Maybe we 
can call it AltArrivalDinner or something like that?
