It seems that systems where, roughly,

1♣ = NAT unBAL or <range_1> BAL
1♦ = NAT unBAL or <range 2> BAL
1N = <range_3> BAL,

where range_1, range_2 and range_3 are different (presumably non-overlapping) hcp ranges, are increasingly known as "coded minors"*. (See e.g. this nice video by gwnn (tgwnn on youtube). )

How did this name originate?

I think I've heard it called 'split-range' where the 1♣ is a lower range.

More importantly, though, can I have a list of tournaments that nullve doesn't play?
I need to improve my average.
