you can have a max of 2 contacts per city right? So does that mean that future favors never become a contact or do u get the option to replace an existing contact?

hehe be nice if you get two evidence contacts but that would take the challenge out lol :)

What is a non evidence contact? I thought that all the townies were able to be contacts, corroberate alibis and give hints. Who else?

You will have (eventually I keep telling myself) one contact for either threads/footprints/handwriting/hair and one contact who just gives hints and corraborated alibis. The first is called your evidence contact because they can verify evidence. The other non-evidence because, well, they can't advise on evidence.

Too bad. You never get spilled beer as evidence?

A really noobish question: how do I get contact at all? :)

You get a contact by doing a favour for one of the townspeople. Most of the time they'll give you a piece of equipment as reward for solving it, but sometimes one will become your contact instead :)
