From TDN:

ESR has an excellent guide to asking questions of engineers, the smart way.

What are you trying to say? It's a simple question. Does it work or not?

What he means is:

What does not work?
How are you using it?
Some code to see if it is SetBlackOut or your code?

Ok in the engine:
ConsoleMethod( GameConnection, setBlackOut, void, 4, 4, "(bool doFade, int timeMS)")

from game script:
%client.setBlackout(true,1000); << doesn't work
%client.player.setBlackout(true,1000); << doesn't work

It works just fine, providing you use the right syntax.

serverConnection.setBlackout(true, 1000);
