It seems that getting a zero wouldn't be bias free. For example, I could probably raise my score by answering all the questions I figure I'm more likely than the average contestant to answer correctly, and take a zero on the rest. Or, if skipping a problem at random, if my average on the other questions is higher than zero, then a zero on one question would likely lower my overall score.
