Middle Number Votes are where each MP writes down a number and for example of 101 the highest & lowest 50 are thrown out (to determine budget spending levels, prison sentence laws, minimum age requirements, ...)
Lottery Democracy is where either one chamber of parliament is filled with say 100 people who (expressed an interest and were) entered into a lottery that chooses who wins the seats, or one party contesting the election is governed by a panel that is formed in this way
Interselection is where either seats in parliament or the power centre of a party contesting the elections is composed of the winners of a big tournament event where each person who comes is a contestant and a 10+9+8+7...points voter in a secret ballot election held at the end of the day
Other alternative parties include, among others, a panel of the 15 biggest trade-unions, a panel of ethnic minorites or religious groups, or of SMEs. I could go on, but this is not neccessarily part of the question.
