if you have any really good examples of a certain thing (zugzwang, x-ray attack, discovered attack) please post them here

This is not really zugzwang as White to play has Rg1-a1-a8 mating.  The Black R is very helpless.

Also 49...Rf7 is forcing an exchange of pawns and drawing instantly.  It seems like Black was not trying to do anything other than play legal moves.

on move 57 if the other rook could have stayed where it was then the game  would be a draw

False.  57.Kf6 (pass) 58.Rg1 (pass) 59. Ra1 and Ra8# next.

fine thats true but you have to edmit that zugzwang made it mate in one insted of mate in 4.

Not strictly zugzwang but from move 28 I had the computer paralysed:

feal free to post things like x-ray attack and not just zugzwang

2 pins in the first 15 moves too: http://www.chess.com/livechess/game?id=427123036

Another pin later on and some threats of double attacks (if 30...hxg6 then Rxf4, gxf4, Qxc7) then and removal of the defender (32) too.

The simplest example of zugzwang ever in my opinion:
