I am having some issues with this one...
DOWNTIME=*:1930:0730:nightlyoff,6:0830:2359:OffSaturday,0:0000:2359:OffSunday

Info page says:
All days:1930:0730:nightlyoff, Sat:0830:2359:OffSaturday,
Sun:0000:2359:OffSunday

But hobbitd is complaining:

Latest errormessages:
Bad timespec (missing colon or wrong weekdays): 1930:0730:nightlyoff

Is there something wrong with the *?
