Tumbling merely prevents the AoO for moving, tumbling itself isn't a provoking action.  While moving provokes the AoO, it is resolved before you leave the square.  So, the easy scenario is if you're willing to move and take the AoO.  Simple.  Not so simple: Can you upon realizing tumble didn't work decide to not move and avoid the AoO?  Since tumbling is done as part of movement, I'd assume you could not "put the breaks on," but it could be more clear.2. The update directly answers that.  I think losing your entire move action is too harsh, you should be able to use your remaining movement however you want for that move action, but that's just my opinion.3. In 3E, it was +2 DC per additional foe.  In PF, they seem to have removed that from the DC modifiers tables, so you "just" have to roll high enough to beat each creature's CMD, any you fail to can take their AoO on you.4. As above.  You beat CMD +5, you move through that square, you don't beat the creature's CMD +5, you fail and provoke.  I would use one die roll for all enemies, rather than making the tumbler roll each instance.5. You roll your tumble.  Anyone who you're tumbling by and beat their CMD, you don't provoke, anyone you fail to you do provoke.  Anyone you're tumbling through their space, you win by CMD +5, you get through, you fail and your movement ceases for that move action and that creature gets to AoO you.6. Multiple opponents doesn't increase DC anymore and are just more CMD scores to need to beat, so these foes would have no impact at all on what you can do.  I'm not sure if the designers intended for you to automatically succeed at slipping through the legs or somersaulting over a stunned person, but I see no problem with it, myself.7. I'd just use one tumble roll for the entire move action and apply it where needed, much simpler.  Otherwise...do it in the order that you move past/through...8. In 3E it was unequivocably only for the squares you were tumbling.  PF used less clear text, but I still think this is the case, as it says "When moving in this way, you move at half speed."  There's no logical reason to be tumbling in completely clear squares, other than to show off.</blockquote>
