I'm not on Twitter, so rely on their website for submission requirements. The 'latest guidelines' there are dated September last year. They don't match what has been seen, by some, on Twitter, and apparently the tweets didn't have the tone of a joke, so I'm not sure.
When I know more, I'll post an update.

It is confusing. In some respects, they reflect what I thought we were already supposed to do (no formatting) but if we're not supposed to use double spacing, what do we use??? That's if it's not an April Fool of course!
Well, I just use 1.5 or or single line spacing. It's never been a problem for me with the mags. I wouldn't say that the fiction guidelines have changed -it's just the formatting guidelines. All they're asking you to do is drop the double line spacing, that's all.

Good morning! Just to clarify what we're asking for when it comes to submitting a story...
It must be on a Word document. Use single line spacing and no formatting. That's it!
Thank for clarifying. I'm afraid I've never used indents either. I was told by other womag writers that I should use them but the mags don't seem to have a problem with it.
