Important Note: GetTickCount will cause problems on servers with uptime of over 24 days (physical server, not SA:MP server) as GetTickCount will eventually warp past the integer size constraints |

It's not GetTickCount() problem, it's because 2147483647 is the biggest number you can have in PAWN.
(2147483647 is about 24 days in milliseconds)

But that's not just the biggest number in PAWN. It's the biggest number for a 32 bit signed integer.

Tickcount();

@CyNiC - That suffers the same problem.
Use a Unix timestamp, we shouldn't have problems with these until 2038. (the highest value an integer accepts is 2147483647 which converted to a date as a unix timestamp would be Tue, 19 Jan 2038 03:14:07 GMT according to my timezone)
