No, there's no buyer equivalent of the auto-accept or -decline that sellers can use when setting up a listing. The offers had to have been accepted manually and deliberately. Even if a listing has "Immediate payment required", that doesn't apply to auctions.
The buyers apparently were online to accept your counteroffers, but have some reason for waiting to pay -- waiting for a paycheck to hit their accounts, or security sign-in issues, or they're not at home and forgot their PayPal password, the reason doesn't matter since you have to wait 2 days before you can do anything about it.
