Actually I just did it, I aim for 3 med refine. It give out reward at 23:00 so I released mine at 22:00. Before that I already supported 10 times, each increase 100m so right after I released my lantern it started with 1000m. After that I just logout and do my stuff and checked back after 23:00, there is no way ur lantern will get more than 1000m in 1 hour without any support.
