	Armageddon Online - The Doomsday Device
		A doomsday device is a hypothetical construction — usually a weapon — which could destroy all life on the Earth, or destroy the Earth itself (bringing "doomsday", a term used for the end of the world).
		Doomsday devices have been present in literature and art especially in the twentieth century, when advances in science and technology allowed humans to fantasize in a definite way about the possibility of actively destroying the world or all life on it (or at least human life).
		The Soviet Union built the world's only doomsday device, known originally as the "dead hand." The Russian dead hand is designed to launch the bulk of the country's nuclear forces in the event of a decapitating strike, utilizing specially designed rockets carrying radio equipment.

		Doomsday Device shows, rare and rarely announced much ahead of time, became the stuff of legend, as hordes of Norcal hardcore's tough guy elite took the stage to sing "their part" and then go barreling back into the crowd to mosh among the bloodied, sweaty masses of kids.
		However, Doomsday Device was never viewed as a serious band, a "career endeavor", but rather an excuse to get together with friends and have some fun.
		However, in the wake of the tragedy and after much reflection on his amazing legacy, the members of Doomsday Device decided that the whole point of the band was still terribly vital and that it would behoove the scene not to let it go to waste.

	Genesis Device - Memory Alpha, the Star Trek Wiki
		The device initiated a process of rapid terraforming, by which previously uninhabitable planets could be turned into class M worlds ready for colonization.
		The intention of the third stage of testing was to introduce the device to a lifeless space body, such as a moon or barren planet.
		Unfortunately, if the device was detonated where life already existed, it could prove to be a very powerful doomsday weapon, destroying all life in favor of its new matrix.

	Planet Killers
		The Doomsday Machine is similar to the Lexx and the Vorlon planet-killer, in that it appears to be a purpose-built weapon with poor defensive capabilities.
		The Doomsday Machine cuts up planets for fuel, but it is unknown how long this process takes, or how much of the planet's mass is actually processed, as opposed to being cast away to drift in space (the iron which makes up most of a typical planet's mass is probably not that useful).
		However, the Doomsday Machine requires the ability to disintegrate a planet into a floating debris field at the very least, which in turn requires the ability to overcome gravitational potential energy (otherwise the planet would still be intact).

	The Doomsday Machine
		Analysis of the Constellation's records showed that the alien device was a robotic weapon designed to break apart planets and ingest their material for use as fuel in a total conversion drive.
		Analysis of the devices course indicated that it originated outside our own galaxy, and that it was on a course which would soon take it into one of the most heavily populated regions.
		Kirk theorised that the device had been built as an ultimate weapon, so powerful that it could destroy both sides in a war and so would act as a deterrent to any war in the first place.

	Overlord Academy » Doomsday Device
		The purpose of a doomsday device is to give credibility to an Overlords threat of total world destruction.
		Now, to improve the chances of the doomsday device activating without any attempts from the opposition interfering, the location of the doomsday device needs to be kept secret, and the exact operation of the device known to none but yourself.
		For example, if the device was not located on this planet, it would be very difficult for the opposing forces to get to the device in time if they were able to even locate it.

		The answer may be as simple as the fact that the Device requires a specialized power source that she has to get to, or that she wants to affect a certain area and is travelling there.

	Func_Msgboard: Doomsday Device - A Mod Concept
		the object of the game is to be the first to find and reach the doomsday device, and detonate it, thus killing all of the other players.
		if the doomsday device takes a while, like say 15 seconds, then the other three players are now essentially on the same team, so it becomes 3 vs 1, and that would change in a split second as soon as the 1 guy setting off the bomb is dead.
		The bottom line on Doomsday Devices is that they create a way to score points without requiring as much skill as other means of scoring points, which is a gameplay problem that can occur with much less extreme and less easily recognizable analogs of the Doomsday Device, such as a powerup that is easily acquired.
