So is the new game mode neutral CTF?

Looks like a game mode revolving around the final cap mechanic of Hightower.

Not impressive, if that is indeed the case :?

I sure hope it isn't the Hightower thing. Neutral CTF might work.

My question is, is "Doomsday" the name of the game mode or the map?

The picture makes it look like a Payload map

There's a Banana peel at the bottom of the page that appears to shed more light on the Saxton Hale/Poopy Joe situation.

The first two pages are the Senate hearing we've already seen from the ARG, and the third page is a photo of Saxton kicking ass as usual, page 4 however....

This is hard to be cool and suave while being informative at the same time. Goddamn my coolness.
In my experience, common sense isn't too common.

Nope. The Pyro is not Poopy Joe.

Still does not rule it out being a boy or a girl or an alien or a jukebox, though.

My interpretation of that is that it's the name of the map. They haven't told us what the game mode is called.
