Okay. Random programming info. To create a kill counter they had to use a variable and variable have different types for varying amounts of memory. To determine the max kill counter all you would have to do is examine the code and find what type of variable it is. I didnt bother downloading that video on the first page but since you can have a negative kill count(suicides and TK's) I would assume that it is a signed variable(negative and positive numbers), and that the type is either short or long because there is no need for more than that. Here's a small table for further inspection:
Type Name Range of Values
__int8 -128 to 127
__int16 -32,768 to 32,767
__int32 -2,147,483,648 to 2,147,483,647
__int64 -9,223,372,036,854,775,808 to 9,223,372,036,854,775,807
short -32,768 to 32,767
unsigned short 0 to 65,535
long -2,147,483,648 to 2,147,483,647
unsigned long 0 to 4,294,967,295
float 3.4E +/- 38 (7 digits)
double 1.7E +/- 308 (15 digits)
long double 1.2E +/- 4932 (19 digits)
