Incorrect grammar upon losing

[GoogleCodeExporter]

This is just a grammar issue.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Lose a game of chess

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

I expect "You have been checkmated." Instead I see "You was checkmated."

What version of the product are you using?

PyChess Staunton 0.10.1

Did you use an installed version of PyChess or did you run in from a
tarball/svn?

Installed via the Arch Repos

Zacharylombardo, thx for reporting this!
To tell the truth english is not my native language, so I can't decide.

Maybe someone should review our Utils/repr.py
Matt, Justin, others ?

If English is not your native language, I would love to help out as an English 
copy editor for the entire program.  Tell me where to look and I will check for 
grammar errors and cite sources so that you can be more sure of my edits.

No need for cite sources of course :) I just like to delegate this 
responsibility to Matt or Justin or any other native english speaker developers.

There is a template file for translators containing all user visible strings of 
pychess:

Thx for your offer!

Fixed it in rev 9dcc3ed4f253.

Notice, I used "has been", because player names supposed to be _names_, not 
"You".
