I can't name one thing, because there are several functions I like a lot. Of course the extensive statistics, but also the D/T-search-tool and the challenge checkers. And I like also the different possibilities to look for good caches in regions other than the home zone.

my preference on project gc is to propose challenge verifiers that propose a new form of geocache, with a challenge, a condition that requires finding different types to increase our motivation ... for me it is these challenge checkers the most interesting ... and thank you again for this question and for the directors of the auditors!  ... traduit par google translat du francais :

We asked this same question just over a year ago, and it's still relevant today, as so many new people have joined in Project-GC since then, and they don't always want to trawl through old answers, which is understandable. 

We haven't really changed our favourites - we still love going to events and then planning a whole caching day or trip around it, before, after or both. So our favourites are Live Maps, VGPS, Event Notifiers, Route Builders and lots more here at Project-GC to make it a great day(s). We always like to use Challenge Checkers too to see which caches we might qualify for in the area we are visiting.

Hmmmm....

Well, I was checking my belt and badge status every day, watching our progress. Now achieved golden-black belt. So that is tapering.  Still watch badge progress.

We also enjoy challenge caches, so use the challenge checkers.

But, my favorite is probably the search capabilities. Searching for caches to fulfill challenges, or nearby webcams, or.....????

As most users (I presume) I like the profile stats and the badgenerator most.

I also tend to use the challenge checkers, but not much that I qualify for yet.
The D/T matrix map is also nice since I'm starting to think about completing the matrix.

Projet-GC is awesome on so many level. Stat creation is definitely up there but the challenges checker is not far behind as I find myself qualifying for more of them now that I have a few years behind me in the hobby. The introduction of the Challenge tab also help in managing cache where you signed the log but did not yet qualify. I guess I gave 3 favorites......

When I started I mostly looked @ the general stats en was the badgegen my favorite option by far. (prolly still is)

But as I grew bit by bit I started to discover other things such as de D/T matrix map and the possibility to filter & thus compare stats with other (known) cachers. (Maybe it would be nice to see this feature more as a product comparison as you get in webshops.)

In the future the challenge checkers will become more important to me...
And I also like the FTF list

As a Geocacher who loves statistics, this site was a hidden gem when I discovered it. I'm glad that many people have since gotten on board and are able to enjoy this excellent resource too. A big thanks to the PGC team who constantly maintain and improve the site.

The profile stats and the badgenerator and a lot of other statistics like FTF. I also like to use the different search options like searching caches with specific attributes

This does not answer the question in any way. If you feel the need to share your opinion, there is also way to add a comment.
