The bin is the scoring area in buce. It is usually a pot or garbage bin, and is surrounded by the square in gameplay.

Points[edit]

If the hackeysack enters the bin off an opposing player, it is two points. If the hackeysack touches the outside of the bin on the full and doesn't go in, it is one point. If the hackeysack rolls and touches the bin not on the full, it is one point if it landed inside the O.B square on the full. Any other instance is not counted as a point. If a buce or 1 pointer is scored from outside the double-point line, the points that the player earned is doubled. The Double Point Rule does not apply for own points or own buces.

History[edit]

The bin was originally implemented into the game through convenience, as it was the only legitimate scoring implement available at the original buce venue. Then, when buce was moved away from the quadrangle, pots were used. only recently, when the original bins were "legally re-obtained" and when the quadrangle has been used , has bin use been popular.
