In anycase this site in manipulated by a few. Five million people could upvote this post and nothing would happen because some dudes named @smooth@ned has the voting power of the entire planet. Also the post never paid out when it was supposed to, the countdown was in slow mo to give these guys time to shuffle their money around.
Post payout time is affected by votes in a stake weighted manner. So votes from a whale will increase the time to payout by several hours, depending on factors like how many votes the post already has and the current payout time.
No manipulation is going on, it's just how the system works.
that main post has not payed out yet ...
perhaps if there's an influx of upvote / downvote it postpones the payment ?
i'm really not sure about that , but I think this is more plausible than a conspiracy theory about the timer being slowed down just for this post "to give these guys time to shuffle their money around"

the more active the post the longer the payout time
btw you sounds as if you deserve the money, well you dont. It is their upvote and sadly they can give it or take it away if they please
