Survivor Nicaragua?s Jimmy T: ?If I provided a little lunacy I hope everyone enjoyed it.?

Survivor1007.jpg After entering an online Sears contest to become a Survivor, 49-year-old Gloucester, Mass., resident James "Jimmy T" Tarantino soon found himself voted onto the hit show. But after last night's tribal council, Jimmy T found himself voted out by his tribemates.

While Jimmy went into the game with intentions of going under the radar, his game soon changed after arriving in Nicaragua. ?I lot of distracting things went on,? Jimmy T tells In Touch, ?I went all-in physically and emotionally and that's not how you play the game.?

Throughout the game, Jimmy wanted to prove his worth in the challenges and be given a chance to shine, only to be thwarted by fellow Espada teammate Marty, who has been orchestrating the tribe to his advantage from the get-go. ?Losing those challenges was particularly hard for me,? explains Jimmy. ?Especially not being given a chance. If I had won a challenge, it might have changed the tribes dynamic and that would have changed things for Marty.?

With conditions at camp hitting rock-bottom following a thunderstorm, Jimmy?s attempts to bolster everyone?s spirits with song and dance were misinterpreted as annoying, and it soon became apparent his do-good attempt might be his undoing.

Still Jimmy is pleased with the game he played, though not so sure about how he was portrayed. ?I have no regrets,? he says. ?They make a great show and if I provided a little lunacy, I hope everyone enjoyed it. I was trying to be as helpful as I could ? that's all. Survivor is all about self-preservation and I have no resentment toward anyone. I wish everyone luck, especially those that were sincere and real. I'm cheering for Jane, she played with her heart and I hope she goes all the way.?
