The types of events are listed here. For backgammon, they have various match lengths, and they also have Nackgammon as well as something they call Hyper Backgammon.

So on the page that JOH linked to, I assume that (for example) B11GP means a backgammon match to 11 points, and NA1GP means a 1-point Nackgammon match. The scoring is presumably explained somewhere, but I haven't looked carefully.

The page on turn-based tournaments suggests that the format is like that of correspondence chess, where you can take days for a move. That doesn't seem to make much sense for backgammon, so maybe I'm not understanding the rules correctly.
