NO!NO!NO! You don't lose points if you bust zero point qso's!!!
Count the points for the -b and -n qso's and multiply by 4, it should total
the same as the points removed.
Look at my 160m one below:

189 calls, 12 (U or B), ( 6.3%), 17 (U+1 or B or N) ( 9.0%)
133 cross-checked, 5 not-in-log.
NIL QSO points removed (no possible logs) = 12 (3 QSOs).
BAD QSO points removed = 16 (6 QSOs).
Notice, one -N dx station is 3 points, 4*3=12... no points removed for the
other 2 NIL's. And 2 -B ve stations total 4 points, 4*4=16... no points
removed for the other bad ones.
