I have no real way of trying this as I do not currently play on a multiplayer server.
Many of us know about Spleef, its wildly popular and easy to play. The new way that shift lets us cling to ladders gave me an idea for a new Minecraft exclusive game. What if we turn the Spleef arena sideways. Right now I call it Ladder Matches.
Ok you set up a giant wall and put ladders on the whole face of the wall. Make it so that if you fall you die. Now that we have Shift = no-drop on ladders, people could get on this giant wall of ladders and try and knock each other off. They can also target the ladders and the blocks themselves. Think of it like Spleef turned sideways.
I know that there is a difference between "yea it works" and "yea its fun", but right now I don't know if either are applicable. Do we have any volunteers to try this out on multiplayer? Does it look like its a worthy persuit?
I made a small example of a Ladder Matches arena. If its fun we can certainly think of a weird name for the game. I have a pretty good idea where "Spleef" came from, so if I have a say in the sport, I'd call it "Chronic"
Hey cool, this has some potential man! I would love to play this! There should also be a ladder contest where you have to reach the top the fastest. You can still knock others off though.

http://myschoo.php5.sk/mca/ = AWESOME. The pen is mightier than the sword, or in this case, the text is mightier than the troll.
Perhaps make a large triangle where the middle ladder is the only one that reaches the top to the prize?
Like Spleef, there's a lot of variations you could do. How about a race from the left side to the right side, but have the board like 1 mile long.
Oh my. Now I can easily imagine an admin just cuboid-ing a mile long wall covered in ladders that goes through a bunch of dangerous room, some filled with skeletons, some over lava, etc.

If I knew how to do such a thing, I"d totally make a youtube of that and pass it around.
You could also make a sort of square race track with obstacles along the walls so you can't just go in a strait line(not that its easy to do a strait line while sideways).
