- For the signature attack of Downsizers, see Pink Slip (Downsizer).
A pink slip (commonly known as a fire) is a reward which can be obtained by Toons who defeat the Chief Executive Officer. They can be used to "fire" a Cog out of a cannon away from battle.
The damage towards the Cog is the same as their maximum remaining health; for example, a level five Cog in full health would receive 42 damage. Pink slips, if used against Version 2.0 Cogs, will destroy both their outer suit and their Skelecog form.
Toons can carry a maximum of 255 pink slips, therefore defeating the Chief Executive Officer when Toons have 255 pink slips will not reward any pink slips. The number of pink slips being carried is displayed in the "Gag" section of the Shticker Book. The number of rewarded pink slips is randomized between one to five, depending on how the tier system plays out. Additionally, they take priority over all gag tracks and doodles.[1]
Trivia
- A pink slip is one of the two attacks capable of defeating a level 12 Cog in a single hit.
- Originally in the Test Server for Toontown Online, a Cupcake was used to activate the cannon for the pink slip.
- This is the only attack which doesn't cause the Cog to malfunction and explode.
- It is unknown why 255 is the maximum number of pink slips Toons can have.[2]
- In real life, a pink slip is a notice given to an employee informing them that they have been fired. The cannon may represent the "fired" part.
