Whisper to multiple people using a macro/token action

I am currently trying to build a macro/token action that will let me whisper multiple people with the same message.

So as it stands, I have a tranparent token that has an "ability" that looks like this:
/w "?{Who to whisper?|gm|Tash|Articause|Mori|Anon|Reskar|Tecmessa}" @{selected|bar1}

So that currently asks me for a single person to whisper, and I have to click it multiple times, once for each person.

What I would like to do, is have it ask me more than once who to send it to, and then send the text from bar 1 to all the selected people.
I understand that it would have to be some sort of nested macro, or use the ! on the first line to setup the variables and then call them in the macro itself.
I just cant seem to get my head around how to actually do it.

Any help would be greatly appreciated as the game is tomorrow :(

You could create a whispered chat menu that creates a button for each target, and click on as many as needed.  It's not elegant, but it's pretty foolproof.

Assuming you have a character sheet for storing macros, called macro-storage:

whisper-bar1

/w gm Whisper selected bar1 to [Tash](!
%{macro-storage|Tash-whisper}) [Articause](!
%{macro-storate|Articause-whisper}) etc

Then, on macro-storage, a macro for each player,

Tash-whisper

/w Tash @{selected|bar1}

Articause-whisper

/w Articause @{selected|bar1}

etc

I'm not sure what the use case here is, but if it is because the characters in question share a common language, there is always this Stupid Trick:
Use a "Placeholder" Character(s) to Handle In-Game Languages - Vince

This looks like it might work, will test it in a bit before heading to sleep and let you know!

It's not for a shared language, but I have several peices of information that would only be available to different people at different times, so I wanted to whisper ONLY the people that needed that information at that time.
My players have TERRIBLE memories and dont tend to write things down often, so I only send them information on a roll high enough to remember it.

THIS WORKED PERFECTLY!!!!!!

Thank you so much! Does exacxtly what I needed to, to add some atmosphere to the game when only a few pc's could "hear" some distant chanting!
