Can the EventLog? check only return a single event description?

Does anyone know if there is a way to perform an event log check that returns the description from only one event even if there was more than one match? For example, if I set the event log check to go critical when there are 5 or more matching events but instead of returning 5 descriptions when using the 'descriptions' option only returning one. Often the events have the same text, I would like to be able to see only one description (maybe the last one or something). Is this possible, if so I can't figure out how to do it? This helps when trying to look at the check results and make heads or tails of it (especially on a handheld device such as a phone).

    Grab the latest nightly and use the unique option (check the changelog) 3.1 will have this feature as well when it is released in the near future :)
