Missed gateway quiz does not count as zero grade?!

Missed gateway quiz does not count as zero grade?!

This semester I am using WeBWorK only for online gateway quizzes.
I am surprised to see that students who missed two out of three quizzes still have 100% as their grade average.

Is there a setting for automatically counting zero as a grade for missed quizzes?

I know Blackboard has this setting for calculated average:
Calculate as Running Total Yes No
A running total only includes items that have grades or attempts. Selecting No includes all items in the calculations, using a value of 0 for an item if there is no grade.

I guess if I set that in Blackboard, then I could count quizzes one-by-one, but it would be much easier for me to just have one overall WeBWorK quiz grade transferred instead of setting up daily quizzes one-by-one.
