Can't whisper to yourself

When I try to whisper to myself I get a message saying "It seems you're trying to whisper to yourself, are you insane?".  What I'm trying to do is roll a full attack for a creature with 4 attacks (8 rolls total) and I want to visually distinguish between each attack for myself without revealing anything to the players about what buttons I'm pushing... is there another way to do that?

Instead of typing in 'GM' try typing in your name. It works for me.  - Gauss
Use /gmroll (formula goes here), yes? I have several macros for myself that only show to me. Some say "The DM makes a mysterious roll..." but do not show the players what the roll is :)
Thanks for the tip Gauss, but it doesn't seem to be working for me. OldSchoolChris: that's what I'm doing for the rolls, but I want to put an identifier before each roll, like: /w gm falchion /gmroll 1d20 + 10 /gmroll 2d4+5 /w gm bite /gmroll 1d20+10 /gmroll 2d4+5
Why not: /gmroll 1d20 + 10 Falchion /gmroll 2d4+5 /gmroll 1d20+10 Bite /gmroll 2d4+5

Reed, when you type your name are you choosing it in the popup menu and hitting enter? When I hit 'G' in the popup menu there is GM and Gauss. I select Gauss and hit enter and it works. If I select GM and hit enter it does not.  Based on the macro you are making I suggest writing the following: /gmroll [falchion attack] 1d20+10 /gmroll [damage damage] 2d4+5 /gmroll [bite attack] 1d20+0 /gmroll [bite damage] 2d4+5 Any text inside the brackets [] will be repeated in the results. - Gauss
Thanks Gauss!
