Task: Question Answering
Input (English): People also read the comics I had checked out from the library ... seriously four different people read Chicken with Plums in its entirety over the course of the evening . We also played Soul Calibur IV , which I completely sucked at ... however , I did get the best Ring Out of all time against Geoff " The " Ball . I asked Geoff to wake me up before they left this morning so I could say goodbye ... so he got me up at 8:30 , we said our goodbyes , and instead of going back to sleep , I just stayed up , something which I started to regret a couple of hours ago . Sooo tired . Anyway , things were a bit more low - key than last year , and it sucks that they couldn't stay longer . 
Question: What may have been Geoff's reason for waking you up ?
Output (English): He wanted to share a farewell .
