Ie. I need to get the next pick for my IA so I can use a function called get IA wich would take as arguments a random seed (or an infinite vector of random numbers using laziness ;) ) and the previous user inputs and strategy outputs. Of course this is just retarding the monadification of the function as soon or later you'll have to embed it into a IO monad to get the desired results. Anyway, making the strategies completely deterministic can also be useful when debugging.
