Let the match requests you have posted here run out of time; in a few days, you will be credited with wins over your opponents, if they do not accept your challenges.
If you think your opponents may have simply forgotten about the challenges, you can try to email them reminders using the "Contact A Player" link on the main page of slowchess.com.

I just noticed that one of your match requests is actually to a player (alexut) who has challenged you on the ladder. If this match request is not accepted, nothing happens; it will be the same as if your opponent had never challenged you on the ladder.

For the other match request you've posted, you'll move up the ladder if your opponent (birruga) does not accept.

Also, you still need to post a match request for the challenge you have issued on the pyramid (vs. hybriddream).
